Will any benevolent solicitor/lawyer take on my car insurance claim and defeat a mighty car insurance co?


I was 100% innocent in a car accident.

My insurance is 3rd party only so I have had to make a claim myself against the other drivers insurance co.

They have denied my claim saying the damage doesn'y fit how I described the accident. Basically the damage does fit the description because that is what happened!

How can little me fight the mighty power/legal dept of one of the UK's biggest car insurance companies?

I can't of course.

But I want to win because I want my money back for the damaged (and now useless) car and for the principle of the thing and because I am sick to death of being trodden on my huge corporations, just because they can do it to us.

It wouldn't be cost effective to hire a solicitor to help out as I'm only looking for something in the region of 拢400 to 拢600 damages.

Has anybody got a few spare minutes to take my case on and put one over a megalith company?

I wish you well cos the bums will try their best to not pay you

Only criminals and immigrants get Legal Aid, seems you are out of luck.

you could try the ombusman or cab good luck

You don't need a lawyer (that coming from a lawyer!). If you sue the other driver, his insurance company will defend the claim and instruct a lawyer, and the case will go to the small claims court. This is quite informal and although you will feel intimidated, and you'll be against a barrister, if you have a decent case then you'll win; if you don't a lawyer won't much help since there is no 'law' involved. I, like many barristers, did hundred of these cases in the first few years to 'practice'(!) so if you want to e-mail me the circumstances of the accident, I'll happily give you an idea of whether I think you'll win or not; always bearing in mind that the other side may have a very different view of the matter.
