How can our car accident solicitors in Wigan help with your claim?
The period after a car accident can feel overwhelming, particularly when you’re trying to process what has happened while also dealing with the practical consequences that follow. No two car accidents are ever the same, and the circumstances surrounding each case can vary widely depending on how the incident occurred, the severity of any injuries, and the long-term effects on those involved. Our car accident solicitors in Wigan have extensive experience in navigating all kinds of car accident claims, including:
- Car accident compensation claims – supporting you in the aftermath of a car accident, providing expert guidance and working to secure the maximum amount of compensation.
- Vehicle damage recovery – organising the repair or replacement of your vehicle through the other driver’s third-party insurance.
- Medical treatment support – helping you avoid NHS treatment waiting lists by coordinating access to private medical treatment.
- Loss of earnings claims – fighting on your behalf, helping you recover past or ongoing lost income caused by the accident.
- Future care provision – safeguarding your future, working to make sure that your long-term care needs are fully taken into account.
- Passenger injury claims – if you were a passenger involved in an accident, we’ll help by providing expert legal guidance, as well as seeking compensation from those responsible for the accident; in some cases, there may be multiple parties at fault.
- Uninsured driver claims – expertly navigating uninsured driver claims, submitting your case to the Motor Insurers’ Bureau and working to secure the compensation you’re entitled to.
- Hit and run claims – if you were the victim of a hit and run, our team will support you as you fight for justice, considering the impact on your health, your vehicle, your earnings and more.
What is involved in the car accident claim process?
Your car accident claim will begin with a free initial assessment, where our team will look at your circumstances in detail and determine how we’ll approach your unique case. We won’t use a copy and paste approach, because your case is specific to you, so we’ll take all information into account and then tailor our advice. A big part of the process involves evidence gathering, where we’ll collect everything from police reports to medical records to CCTV footage. We’ll also arrange for you to undergo an independent medical examination, which will provide an objective assessment of your injuries and help support your claim with clear, professional medical evidence.
Once we’ve built a full picture and obtained all the relevant evidence, our car accident solicitors in Wigan will begin the process of negotiating on your behalf. We’ll communicate with insurance companies, using our decades of expertise and industry insight to ensure you receive an amount that truly reflects your circumstances. At Farleys, we’re able to settle the majority of claims we see at this stage – if, however, court intervention is unavoidable, we’ll be by your side through all proceedings, providing first-class representation from start to finish.
Why choose Farleys for your car accident claim?
With an impressive track record across the North West of England and millions of pounds worth of compensation secured for our clients, we’ve earned recognition from both The Legal 500 and Chambers and Partners.
Over 65 years of experience in this field has taught us that the claims process can be tricky to navigate, especially with insurance companies trying to reduce the amount of compensation they award. As a result, claimants are too often met with delays or settlement offers that fall short of what they may be entitled to. Our team is committed to taking that stress and uncertainty away. We’ll manage the finer details, challenge where necessary, and handle the process at every stage, so you can focus fully on your recovery without the added burden of chasing or negotiating alone.
For many people in your position, this is their first experience dealing with any form of legal process, and the prospect of unfamiliar terminology and procedures can feel like an added source of pressure at an already difficult time. We aim to remove that barrier by explaining everything in clear, straightforward language, avoiding unnecessary legal jargon, and ensuring you always understand what’s happening and why. Throughout your case, we’ll keep you informed and involved, so you’re never left wondering about progress or next steps.
