Who pays Car Accident Compensation?

Thousands of car accidents happen every year. But if you make a car accident compensation claim, who pays the compensation?

If someone damages your car and injures you in a car accident, if they are insured, compensation will be paid by that insurer if your car accident claim is successful. If they were not insured, you will need to make a car accident compensation claim to the Motor Insurers Bureau (The MIB). They must be notified immediately if it seems the other driver had no insurance.

If you have comprehensive insurance, your insurer will normally help your to get your car repaired. But you should get independent specialist advice for your injury claim. If you have third party insurance, you will also need to claim for the damage to your car. A specialist solicitor will be able to help you and explain who pays for the car accident claim in the different circumstances.
