Our personal injury solicitors possess particular expertise in dealing with the complications that arise from injuries caused by untraced motorists. Our lawyers are experienced in pursuing such claims which involve the Motor Insurers Bureau (MIB) and the strict requirements of the various MIB agreements which govern this area.
Whether the driver was identified or remains untraced, the consequences of these accidents can be life-changing. Our solicitors can guide clients through what can be a lengthy and difficult process to achieve the best possible outcome for them and their families.
The MIB was set up in 1946 as a result of an agreement between the insurance companies and the government. The aim of the many agreements which have developed since is to ensure that the innocent victim of an uninsured or untraced driver is placed in the same position as an innocent victim of an insured driver.
There are many potential tripwires in the agreements however which require careful navigation if a claim is to succeed. Our specialist solicitors have dealt with a number of very serious cases against the MIB and have successfully recovered significant damages involving head injuries, loss of limbs and serious fractures on behalf of car drivers, passengers, cyclists, motorcyclists and pedestrians.
