The components of a successful claim

    Photos

    Photos or videos of the accident scene are crucial for a comprehensive understanding of the circumstances surrounding the incident. As time passes, important details can be easily forgotten. Disputes may arise, and having documented evidence to support your account of the events is essential, as it prevents the responsible party from distorting the facts.

     

    Therefore – TAKE PHOTOS!

    Witnesses

    Whether you’re on the road, at work, or simply walking down the streets, there are often individuals who have witnessed the accident and are willing to confirm the circumstances. Rather than waiting for a witness to approach you with their assistance, it is in your best interest to proactively identify witnesses and request their contact details.

     

    Therefore – DON’T BE SHY, FIND WITNESSES!

    Reporting the incident

    Reporting the incident

    It is crucial to ensure that comprehensive details about the accident at workplace are recorded in the Accident Report Book. Similar accident reporting procedures can be found at the administration offices of various establishments such as stores, gyms, and other places open to visitors. In the event of a car accident, it is important not to engage in negotiations with the responsible party and, most importantly, refrain from signing any documents. Contact the police instead.

     

    Filling out the forms takes some time and may distract you from planned activities – PUT OTHER THINGS ASIDE AND REPORT THE INCIDENT!

    It is essential to understand that the incident itself, for example a car accident, does not automatically give you the opportunity to receive compensation. You are eligible for compensation only if you are injured. Do not try to assess your health on your own – seek medical advice. 

     

    Even with minor pain and discomfort – SEE A DOCTOR

FAQ

  • hide icon show icon

    Payment for services provided by the company is made at the end of the process. The payment limit is set at 25% of the total amount of compensation received. Compensation for future losses (earnings, care costs) is not subject to withholding.

  • hide icon show icon

    It is against the law to fire an employee for exercising his right to receiving compensation. In any case, if you have any doubts or questions, contact “it happens” and get a free detailed consultation.

  • hide icon show icon

    The basis for receiving compensation is the injury and the financial losses that accompany it, in cases where the incident has occurred through no fault of yours. Most often, it is about road traffic accidents wherein any road user can be injured, both the driver of a vehicle and his/her passengers, as well as pedestrians and cyclists. Besides that, as a basis for a claim can serve an injury in a public place and at work, as well as an injury resulting from unlawful actions by third parties or from medical negligence. It is important to remember that the time limit for filing a claim for compensation is limited to 3 years from the date of the incident.

    If you are in doubt about whether you can count on compensation or you have questions – call at 01212 868686 and “it happens” staff will advise you in detail and recommend any further steps.

  • hide icon show icon

    A conclusion about the amount of compensation can be made only after the report of an independent medical expert about your state of health and the time required for full recovery. In addition, financial losses incurred in connection with the incident are also taken into account. If you want to get a general idea of the possible amount of compensation, contact the specialists of “it happens” in any way convenient for you.
