Accident Caused by Family Member
If you’ve been injured in an accident that wasn’t your fault, including an accident caused by a family member, then we will be able to help if:
- The accident wasn’t your fault
- You were unable to return to work
- A family member involved
- It was a serious accident
- You need expert advice
- You were a passenger or pedestrian
Being involved in a road traffic accident can be upsetting enough, but it may be made more stressful if the accident was caused by a family member. If you were a passenger in car involved in an accident caused by a family member you can make a claim for compensation.
Whether the driver of the vehicle is a family member or a friend they will have motor insurance which pays for any compensation claims. Whether you claim or not, you can rest assured that the other driver and their passengers will, so your additional claim won’t have any real impact on your friend or families’ insurance. If you:
- Have been a passenger in a car accident that was the fault of a family member
- Are concerned about making a claim against their insurance
- Need reassurance that your claim will be dealt with professionally and quickly and avoid upset
