Find out where you stand - and if you can claim

Injured on a UK road? You don't need to have been at fault to have a case.

Riders, cyclists, pedestrians, e-bike riders, even drivers, if you were injured on a UK road and someone else was at fault, there may be more you can do than you think.

Most people who could claim never do. Not because they don't have a case. Because nobody gave them a straight answer before they gave up.

Find out where you stand — and if you can claim
  • E-Scooter Rider or victim — insured or not
  • Cyclist Hit by a vehicle or forced off the road
  • E-Bike Knocked off, hit from behind, road defect
  • Pedestrian Hit crossing, pavement collision, strongest legal position
  • Driver Hit by an e-scooter, insurance complications

What people in your situation actually
settled for.

E-scooter

Rider had no insurance? No registration? Doesn’t matter.

A government-backed route exists for this. Most people who qualify never realise it.

  • £30,000 — pothole. ACL tear. Surgery.
  • £42,000 — rental scooter, car made an illegal turn.
  • £100,000 — uninsured rider. Brain injury. Hit-and-run.
“I’ve been told I won’t get anything anyway.”

Cyclist

The first offer is never the real number.

One cyclist was offered £1,500. Two medical reports later — £8,500.

  • £75,000 — hit by a van that failed to give way.
  • £130,000 — knocked off by a taxi. Three operations.
  • £230,000 — hit at a junction. Long-term restrictions.
"I got walloped by a car, they admitted fault immediately. 3 years later we're finally talking figures."

E-bike

Recovery measured in months, not weeks.

Serious injuries are common. Many people wait, then come back to it later.

  • £30,000 — thrown from the bike at a T-junction.
  • £75,000 — hit by a van. Multiple injuries.
  • £230,000 — hit at a junction. Serious long-term injuries.
“It’s been a couple of years now … is there anything I can do?”

Pedestrian

Hit while walking? You have the strongest position.

Someone else’s negligence. Someone else’s vehicle. Your injury.

  • £25,000 — hit by an uninsured e-scooter rider. Hit-and-run.
  • £400,000 — pedestrian hit by a car.
  • £1,825,000 — brain injury. Speeding driver.

*Case outcomes sourced from published UK solicitor case studies.

You assumed nothing could be done.
No insurance. Illegal scooter. Too late.
The number they offered sounded fair.

Most of those assumptions are wrong.

You can still claim
even if...

"I was told I couldn't claim." You might've been told wrong. Here's what's actually true.

The rider had no insurance.

The Motor Insurers' Bureau exists for exactly this. Government-backed. Pays out when the rider is uninsured or untraced. 47% of MIB claims now involve e-scooters. Most people who qualify have never heard of it.

The scooter was riding illegally.

Illegal isn't the same as at fault. Courts look at what caused the collision — not whether the vehicle was registered.

"Simply riding illegally isn't negligence on its own." — UK legal forum

It was a hit-and-run.

"I've been told that because they didn't catch the people who did it, I won't get squat anyway."

That belief is wrong. The MIB has a specific route for untraced riders. You don't need a registration plate.

More than a year has passed.

"It's been a couple of years now and I've suffered terrible neck and back pain... is there anything I can do?"

You typically have three years. Many people reading this are well within that window.

You were partly at fault.

Contributory negligence can reduce an award. It rarely eliminates it. Courts apportion responsibility — they don't work in absolutes.

You didn't report it straight away.

Late or no police reporting doesn't automatically end a claim. We'll tell you what it does and doesn't affect in your specific situation.

Why most people do
nothing.

It's not that you don't have a case. It's that every time you tried to find out, something got in the way.

You get passed between firms. Nobody owns your case.

Your phone rings from companies you've never heard of.

You're asked the same questions three times and still get no answer.

Thousands of formal complaints are made about this every year in the UK.

“They pass you off to another company who pass you off to a solicitor. Delays, pointless appointments, not keeping you updated.”Trustpilot, 2025
“Put through to three different people... asked the same questions from the top... in the end I told them to forget it and hung up.”Trustpilot, 2025
“How do I stop these guys from ringing me up to 10 times a day.”Trustpilot, 2020
“This company disclosed my personal details.”Trustpilot, 2024

Answered honestly.

  • No. Civil and criminal are completely separate. Making a claim doesn't trigger a police investigation or affect anything on the criminal side.
  • You pay nothing upfront — and nothing if your claim doesn't succeed. Standard success fee: 20–25% of your award, capped by law, deducted at the end. Worth checking: if your home insurance includes legal expenses cover, even that may be covered. Most people never look.
  • No. If you qualify and consent, your details go to one solicitor — the one shown to you before you consent. One firm. Nobody else. We don't sell data. We don't share with third parties.
  • “They pass you off to another company who pass you off to a solicitor.” We've read the reviews. We understand why you're cautious. That's exactly why this works differently. One solicitor. No call centre. Nothing moves unless you say so.
  • We check your eligibility, show you which solicitor would handle your case, and connect you — only if you consent. They handle your claim from that point. We step back. No call centres. No being passed around.
  • The eligibility check takes about three minutes. If you qualify and consent, the solicitor contacts you typically within minutes. The claim itself depends on complexity. Your solicitor will be straight with you about timelines.

Most do nothing.
That's the mistake.

Most people who could claim never do. Not because they don't have a case. Because they never got a straight answer before they gave up. Not knowing could cost you more.
Don't let that be you.
