If you have been in an accident as a passenger in a taxi you could claim compensation against either the driver of the taxi (if he or she is to blame) or the other vehicle involved in the accident.

Just as with other road users, taxi drivers and their company operators are required to have motor insurance in place to ensure the possibility of compensation in the event of an accident involving a paying passenger, pedestrian, occupant of another vehicle or indeed any other road user.

As with all accident claims, you should try to obtain details of all individuals involved, and vehicle registration numbers, so your personal injury solicitor can make a compensation claim against the appropriate party. It may also be of benefit if you are able to provide witness statements, contact details of witnesses, and photographs, both of the accident site itself and of any injuries you might have sustained.

You should also obtain details of the driver's employers or establish if they are self-employed.

What does your claim provide for?

A taxi accident compensation claim may help you recover compensation for a number of factors, including pain, suffering and loss of amenity, lost earnings and any other losses sustained in the accident.

It is important to remember that there are strict time limits in place for the making of a taxi accident compensation claim. As such, you must begin proceedings within three years of the date the accident occurred.

Excellent Service

We decided to use Thompsons Solicitors for our personal injury claim following a road traffic accident. The service was spot on from beginning to end, with excellent communication, timely responses & cleat advice that was easy to understand. It was evident Corinne was always acting in her clients best interests and she worked hard to ensure we got the compensation we rightfully deserved. We were delighted with our final offer and we would absolutely recommend both Thompsons and Corinne to others. We cannot thank her enough for all her help, support and advice during this experience.

Traffic Accident

I can’t thank Corinne and the Team enough for all their help, support, hard work and perseverance with my case. Their belief in me and not giving up over 2 years won me my case and an out of court settlement. I am extremely grateful to Corinne and the team for providing a first class service at all times and keeping me constantly updated every step of the way over the past 2 years. Thankyou all so much and so glad with your expert advice and knowledge in your field it did not have to go to court and an offer was made which I am extremely happy with.
