As a firm of lawyers who deal with a large proportion of complex and catastrophic injury claims, we know how to make the difference. Motorbike accident claim amounts can vary depending on the nature of the case. What we can do is let you know how we go about valuing the claim.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h3><strong>How do we work out motorbike accident claim amounts?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>We can work out motorbike accident claim amounts using a number of legal tools at our disposal, together with our expert knowledge, and expert evidence.<\/p>\n<p>You will normally need a medical report produced by an independent expert who assesses the injuries and how you&#8217;ve been affected. If you have broken bones and soft tissue damage, you would normally see an orthopaedic expert. For any scarring or burns, a plastic surgeon may be needed for a report.<\/p>\n<p>With <a href=\"https:\/\/www.motorbikeinjurylawyers.co.uk\/serious-injury-team\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>bike accidents often being serious<\/strong><\/a>, we sometimes need to send you to see more than one medical expert. We can then use the expert evidence to support the severity of your injuries and allows us to value the case.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>How do we use the medical report to calculate motorbike accident claim amounts?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>With the medical report(s) at our disposal, we can then use a combination of our own experience, and legal precedents, to value the claim.<\/p>\n<p>The primary precedents are known as the Judicial College Guidelines, and they contain guideline figures and brackets to work out how to value a claim.<\/p>\n<p>These can be used to calculate motorbike accident claim amounts.<\/p>\n<p>We can also use case law, which is previously settled cases. We can use the amounts in those previously settled cases that have set a legal precedent at court to assist with valuing your claim.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>A better solicitor can mean higher motorbike accident claim amounts<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>A better solicitor can be the difference between higher motorbike accident claim amounts received, or less.<\/p>\n<p>Some standard lawyers without the knowledge or resources to really negotiate a case may just pick the low-end of a bracket and quickly try and settle. Lawyers like ourselves will always fight for as much as we can for you. We want to make sure you receive the highest settlement you are fairly entitled to.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.motorbikeinjurylawyers.co.uk\/start-your-claim\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Need more advice?
