Passengers right to claim compensation

Passengers' right to claim compensation in a car accident or ANY motor vehicle collision (car, truck, bus, atv, boat, motorcycle...)

We can often find insurance coverage that injured passengers didn’t even know existed” Ken Braithwaite

Many injured passengers delay contacting a lawyer for a variety of reasons. They often assume that they are not covered for their injuries because the driver of their car may have been completely or partially at fault, or the at-fault driver didn’t stick around or was uninsured. Regardless of the reason, you should still speak to a Braithwaite Boyle lawyer as soon as possible because time is the only thing not on your side. We can almost always find insurance coverage for passengers who are injured.

Regardless of who is at fault. Regardless of the type of motor vehicle you were a passenger of (car, truck, atv, boat, motorcycle…) insurance is almost always available if you call us in time.

The biggest mistake injured passengers make is worrying about insurance premiums increasing for their friends and family, rather than considering the long term costs of treatments and lost wages. These costs can often be life-long despite your best expectations. Insurance premiums are going to increase for the at fault driver regardless of whether you are compensated for your injuries or not. The only party that benefits from you suffering in silence, and not receiving the compensation you are entitled to, is the insurance company.

“I have seen too many examples of passengers wishing they could go back in time and get the compensation and advanced treatments they were entitled to” says Ken Braithwaite. “We often need to help injured passengers see the bigger picture, and get them focusing on their recovery rather than worrying about which insurance policy is going to compensate them”. If it has been less than 2 years since your accident, you will have a claim. But you shouldn’t wait, as any delay can only cost you additional treatments and harm your recovery.

Many people have been conditioned to fear insurance companies and the high premiums they charge. This couldn’t make insurance companies happier. People should remember that regardless of how concerned and nice an insurance adjuster may seem on the phone, they are not on your side. Their mission is to pay you as little as possible - or in some cases nothing - even though you may be entitled to substantial compensation. The more serious your injuries are, the more important it is for you to call, text or email us right away. Talking to insurance adjusters can usually only harm your case.

There is so much false and misleading information about compensation for passengers online. The lawyers at Braithwaite Boyle will patiently listen to all your concerns and give you the facts.

“We can often find insurance coverage that injured passengers didn’t even know existed. Our law firm is interested in protecting your rights, so you can get back to the position you were in before being injured as a passenger” added Ken Braithwaite.
