Hi me and my wife were involved in a car accident that was not our fault, we have both suffered personal injuries as a result and have been off work.
We were involved in an accident when heading to the shops in the town city centre where our stationary car was hit at 30 mph from behind, we had parked on the hard shoulder to go into the store, it was a safe parking space used frequently.
The other driver lost control on the main road and swerved and veered onto the curb into our car, he hit us hard in the rear end and we both hurt our back.
I was taken to hospital in an ambulance and my partner was checked out in hospital later, were doctors confirmed both of us have whiplash.
We got personal details of the other driver who admitted liability, but the police at the scene made a report and took car reg plate number etc.
How does the process of making a claim for compensation work?
and what fees are involved for a solicitor to get me a pay out?
