Cycling Accident Claims
Have you been injured riding your bike?
With an increasing number of people using their bikes to commute and keep fit, it’s no surprise that cycle accident claims are becoming more common. We are not just talking about motorcycle accidents which we are all familiar with hearing about, but bicycle crashes and collisions are just as serious and can result in significant inconvenience, financial loss, serious injury or even loss of life, yet the pedal cyclist is often much less protected. If you’ve been involved in a cycling accident, you could be entitled to make a claim for cycling accident compensation.

FAQ
Why is my national insurance number needed?
Your national insurance number is taken by the lawyer and given to the the Compensation Recovery Unit.
The Compensation Recovery Unit (CRU) is a part of the Department for Work and Pensions.
The CRU works with Insurance Companies and Solicitors to recover:
• Amounts of social security benefits paid as a result of an accident, injury or disease, where a compensation payment has been made. This is known as the Compensation Recovery Scheme.
• Costs incurred by NHS hospitals and Ambulance Trusts for treatment from injuries from road traffic accidents and personal injury claims. This is known as recovery of NHS charges.
In effect, what this means is that when you successfully make a claim following your accident, any costs the NHS or the Department for Work and Pensions have incurred are paid back.
This protects every tax payer from the burden your accident can inevitably cause. When we consider the recovery of NHS charges, all monies recovered go straight back into the service, keeping our NHS a “free at the point of access” healthcare system.
