AN ACCIDENT COMPENSATION CLAIM CAN BE SETTLED IN
2 MONTHS
by: mumtaz shah
personal injury claims can be settled within 2
MONTHS, IF YOU KNOW HOW. IF YOU MAKE AN EFFORT
with the accident solicitor, then you never
know, you might also have a record breaking
SETTLEMENT.
over the years, people have started wondering,
IF ANYTHING SAID BY A SALESPERSON IS TRUE.
settling an accident compensation claim within
'x' amount of days, weeks, months or years. but
AS TIME GOES BY, YOU HAVE PLENTY OF REASONS TO
be frustrated!
IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT, FALLING FOR THEIR TRICKS.
they're salespeople, that's what they do for a
living. some are honest, tricksters and some of
THE COMBINATION. BUT THE ONES THAT HAVE DECEIVED
you, what can you possibly do to them now?
YOU'RE RIGHT, YOU CAN'T DO ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING
at all. why? you're never going to see them ever
again. the have either left the company or moved
TO ANOTHER DEPARTMENT. PITCHES LIKE "WE'LL
finish your compensation claim with 4 months!" i
mean, come on…
the timescale
EACH ACCIDENT CLAIM IS UNIQUE. DO YOU THINK, THE
accident that happened on the news yesterday is
the same as yours? i doubt it. if a case was
SETTLED YESTERDAY FOR A 5 FIGURE SUM, WHAT ARE
your initial thoughts? the five figure sum! 'oh,
that was a good payout.'
do you know how long that claim took, who the
third party was, who the insurers were? i guess
NOT! BUT THE MONEY FACTOR ALWAYS CATCHES A
person's interest.
A COMPENSATION CLAIM SHOULD BE MADE ON THE BASIS
of 'your injury'. not on the money factor. treat
it as something unfortunate happening to you and
ALLOW THE ACCIDENT COMPENSATION SOLICITORS DEAL
with it.
DON'T TREAT IT AS A WAGER OR AN ADDITIONAL
income and never, never, never put a timescale
on it! the minute you put a timescale on it, if
IT'S NOT ACHIEVED THEN YOU ARE ONLY GOING TO BE
more frustrated. you'll be chasing the
solicitor, every week, only to hear that they
ARE WAITING FOR THE OTHER SIDE INSURERS TO
respond.
THERE ARE VARIOUS FACTORS THAT CAN SLOW DOWN THE
process for settlement of your personal injury
claim.
the accident
BETWEEN YOURSELF AND THE SOLICITOR, YOU NEED TO
gather all relevant information regarding the
accident. the when, how and where, which does,
ITSELF TAKE A LOT OF TIME, MONEY AND EFFORT.
the medical
medical consultants also take time off from
work, so this can also delay the process. also
WHEN YOU VISIT A MEDICAL CONSULTANT, YOU COULD
get a good grilling into every detail of your
accident and injury. you may also not be
SATISFIED WITH THEIR REPORT AND PROBABLY WOULD
want them to re-assess it, which in effect takes
more time.
the other side insurers
THEY REQUIRE A FULL MEDICAL EXAMINATION OF YOUR
injuries, including your medical history. then
on this basis they can conclude on a settlement
FIGURE.
so before you make a claim for compensation,
BEAR IN MIND THAT THE TIMESCALE VARIES FROM CASE
to case. now for one minute don't think that
your claim will get settle in weeks, months or
YEARS, UNTIL YOU HAVE SPOKEN TO AN ACCIDENT
compensation solicitor. once he/she gathers the
information or evidence, then they'll be able to
GIVE YOU A MORE REASONABLE TIMESCALE. HOWEVER,
this is also approximate, as they don't control
the other party insurers.
if they do mention it will take 3 months then
you should look at a maximum of 4 months. it
DOES HAPPEN, THAT CLAIMS CAN GET SETTLED IN 2
months, if it's straight forward. all the
relevant paperwork is in order and the other
SIDE HAS ADMITTED LIABILITY. IN ORDER TO REDUCE
long legal battle, expenses, time and effort,
they know they're in the wrong, so it's best to
SETTLE EARLY. ON THE OTHER HAND, HOW WOULD A
solicitor make those estimates if you don't
speak to them?
the payout
MONEY IS SOMETIMES A MOTIVATING FACTOR AS IT
does help and contribute to some of your
disrupted life activities. but don't rush the
ACCIDENT SOLICITOR TO SETTLE THE CLAIM QUICKER.
there are other 'factors' that, if a claim lasts
LONGER, THE MORE YOU GET PAID. THIS COULD
possibly be true to a certain extent.
SO IN CONCLUSION, DO CLAIM FOR YOUR PERSONAL
injury or accident and be patient as there is no
real law to settle a case quicker just because
YOU, THE INJURED, NEED THE MONEY URGENTLY.
