Types of Claim

Road traffic accidents can happen from many different circumstances. Some types of claims will mean a slightly different procedure will take place, which is why it is important to obtain advice from a specialist. MASS Members will be able to advise you on your specific circumstances. Select the type of claim from the menu on the left for more information.

Pedal Cycle Accidents

Bicycle claims are often particularly difficult to handle and very often serious in nature as injuries tend to more severe. Such accidents often involve the very young and can be particularly traumatic. Special rules apply to accidents involving children so get advice from a MASS solicitor as soon as possible.

It is essential to get expert advice as soon as possible following your accident particularly if the rider/driver is under the age of 18.

It is worth knowing that you can usually make a claim for a child anytime before his or her 21st birthday if they were under 18 at the time of the accident. Having said that, the earlier you start the process the better as claims are more difficult to prove as time passes.
