In the tragic case that you have endured physical harm caused by a traffic accident, you are entitled to claim for the injuries suffered from the insurance company responsible for the claim. The claim will be based on the number of days taken for medical leave, the after-effects resulting from the injuries suffered, and on the various costs they may have incurred. On many occasions, it is interesting to have an expert’s report to specify the claim. The claim may be amicable or made through the courts (within 6 months from the date of the accident if going through a penal process, or much longer if the civil route is chosen). During the stabilisation process of the injuries received you may receive a call from the other insurance company’s doctor to assess and monitor the final injuries. Bear in mind that the visit is not obligatory, and it is worth having your lawyer advise you on whether it is appropriate for your case.
