Motor claims

Full service in handling motor claims from small and  fast-track to catastrophic injury cases, including fraud and indemnity and representation at inquests and criminal prosecutions.


Accidents involving motor vehicles give rise to countless claims and legal actions, affecting every kind of business and non-commercial organisation and their insurers. The sheer volume of cases, and the constant possibility of major costs and resources being involved, can impact seriously on the operational performance of any of the parties involved.

What is needed most in this situation is a legal service that can help process cases with maximum speed and efficiency and achieve the most satisfactory settlements possible. Weightmans' Motor Claims team is a market leader in this field, with a unique mix of experience and expertise in handling every kind of motor claim and associated legal activity.

As a client, you will benefit most from our total dedication to quality service throughout every aspect of our work, whether it be multi-track, catastrophic claims, fraud or indemnity proceedings. Our procedures are supported by tailored case management software, which allows you to view progress of individual cases at any time.

You will also find cost control and budgeting easier to manage, with our       fast-track service delivered on a fixed cost basis if required.

In addition to handling litigated work, we provide a claims handling service that can be tailored to your particular needs, whether it be for third party claims, dealing with recoveries or managing third party capture. When serious incidents occur, we provide expert representation at police interviews, criminal prosecutions and inquests, helping to ensure that members of your staff and your organisation receive maximum support and protection.

In the longer term, we aim to help you improve your overall financial and operational performance by reducing the impact of motor claims on your organisation. We do this in a variety of ways, including regular statistical analysis of your claims records, reports on trends, information bulletins and tailored training programmes.
