If you suffered an injury whilst motorcycling on a Scottish road, make a claim for compensation with us and keep 100% of your damages. Motorcyclists are some of the most vulnerable road users and even when the motorcyclist is wearing protective clothing and a helmet, they can suffer serious injury.
How to claim for a Motorbike Accident?
Our specialist motorbike accident injury lawyers will intimate the details of your motorcycling accident claim as quickly as possible after the accident. The details of the accident and injury will be sent to the insurance company who represents the person at fault.
Some motor insurers will often to try settle your injury claim directly with you and this can mean that you can receive less compensation than you should. If we represent you we will advise you appropriately should this happen.
We will ingather details of your losses; any documents that we need to prove your case and will contact witnesses as soon as possible.
How long do I have to claim after a Motorbike Accident?
The time limit for settling a case is usually three years after the accident. However, in terms of the compulsory Scottish pre-action protocol your claim should be intimated as soon as possible.
If a child is involved in a motorbike accident the timescale will be three years for raising a court action following their 16th birthday.
