The process of making a stolen vehicle accident claim

Even in the event a car accident does not cause serious personal injury it can be distressing: it can bring all kinds of emotions to the surface and may force those involved to confront troubling questions of mortality.

However, not only will a crash that does result in injury cause those affected to experience emotional trauma, it is likely that it will also result in significant physical pain, medical expenses and lost earnings. As such it may be necessary to mount a no win, no fee claim for compensation. But what if the accident was caused by the driver or a stolen vehicle? How does one proceed with a stolen vehicle accident claim?

Making a stolen vehicle accident claim
Making a stolen vehicle claim differs in several important ways from a typical car crash claim; however, despite this, it is still important that any person who has suffered injury in a collision caused by the driver of a stolen car, motorbike, van or lorry contacts a no win, no fee solicitor to receive advice on his or her civil legal rights.

For example, although no insurance company includes provision "stolen vehicle accident cover", some may, on discretion, choose to offer a payout in the event that the driver of a stolen vehicle is named on one of their policies as the driver of another vehicle.

In the event that there is no insurer to compensate accident victims, or if the driver's insurer is unwilling to pay compensation, it will then become necessary for injured parties to make compensation claims through the Motor Insurers Bureau (MIB).

The MIB is the body responsible for processing and paying out claims made by people who are the victims of accidents caused by uninsured drivers. Although it is possible for claimants to deal directly with MIB, some may find the process daunting and feel it is best to have legal advice in the form of a personal injury solicitor.

MIB claims may not always be made on a completely charge-free basis; as such, it is best for claimants to speak with a legal advisor about their individual circumstances and rights.
