Whiplash injury claims in Scotland

Whiplash is one of the most common injuries from a road traffic accident, and one of the most underestimated. The sudden jolt to the neck in a collision, even at low speed, can damage muscles, ligaments and tendons in ways that take weeks or months to heal.

If the accident was not your fault, you are entitled to claim for everything you have been through.

What you can claim for

  • Pain and sufferingThe injury itself
  • Medical costsTreatment and therapy
  • Lost earningsTime you could not work

Who can claim?

Anyone injured in a road accident that was not their fault. That includes passengers in a car driven by a friend or family member.

  • Drivers
  • Passengers
  • Cyclists
  • Motorcyclists
  • Pedestrians

Estimate your own claim with our calculator

You focus on recovering. We do everything else.

Being off the road after a non-fault accident causes practical problems as well as physical ones.

A replacement vehicle

We can arrange a like-for-like replacement vehicle at no upfront cost, with the hire charges recovered directly from the other party's insurer.

No calls, no paperwork

From the moment you contact us, we handle all communication with insurers and deal with all the paperwork on your behalf.

Time limits apply. In Scotland, personal injury claims must usually be brought within three years of the accident. The sooner you get in touch, the stronger your case is likely to be.

Who can make a whiplash claim?

Anyone who has suffered a whiplash injury in an accident that was not their fault can make a claim. This includes drivers, passengers, motorcyclists, cyclists and pedestrians. Even if you were a passenger in a vehicle driven by a friend or family member, you are still entitled to claim against the at-fault party's insurer.

How much compensation can I claim for whiplash?

It depends on how severe your injury is, how long your recovery takes, and any financial losses such as lost earnings or treatment costs. Minor injuries that resolve within a few months usually attract lower awards, while more serious injuries with lasting symptoms can be worth significantly more. We will give you a realistic estimate after a free initial consultation. You can also try our compensation calculator.

How long do I have to make a claim?

In Scotland, most personal injury claims must be started within three years of the date of the accident. This deadline is set by the Prescription and Limitation (Scotland) Act 1973 and, with very few exceptions, missing it means losing your right to claim. Contact us as soon as you are able.

Will I need to go to court?

The vast majority of whiplash claims are settled through negotiation with the at-fault party's insurer, without a court hearing. If a hearing does become necessary, your solicitor will guide you through the process and represent you throughout.

Do I pay anything if I lose?

No. We work on a no win, no fee basis. If your claim is unsuccessful, you pay nothing. If it succeeds, you keep 100% of your compensation, because we recover our costs from the at-fault party's insurer, not from you.
