How Long Will My Road Traffic Accident Claim Take?
The length of your road traffic accident claim will depend on the severity of your injuries and whether the opponent admits that they are at fault for your injuries.
Your claim may take a longer time if you have been involved in a hit and run accident where the driver is uninsured or untraceable.
