If the opponent accepts liability early, we can normally give you better guidance about how long a claim could take. If they intend to defend the case then we may have a legal battle on our hands, and it can be hard to determine how long a case could take in those kinds of scenarios.<\/p>\n<p>The other important thing to consider is the extent and the severity of your injuries. If we\u2019re talking about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.motorbikeinjurylawyers.co.uk\/serious-injury-team\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>serious injuries<\/strong><\/a>, it may take longer to settle a claim as we may need to do a great deal more work for you. This is all in your best interests.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Motorcycle compensation claim timeframes in a simple case<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>If we take a simple case where liability isn\u2019t an issue and your injuries aren\u2019t severe, we can give you some easy guidance on motorcycle compensation claim timeframes.<\/p>\n<p>A really straightforward claim could settle in around 6 to 9 months. Realistically, it could be even earlier than that, but we often advise the above for some general guidance.<\/p>\n<p>So long as we don\u2019t have to spend a great deal of time fighting in respect of liability, or making sure you\u2019re well looked after when your injuries are life-changing, the focus is usually about getting a fair settlement as soon as we can for you.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>What are the stages of the case?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>To assist a bit more when it comes to motorcycle compensation claim timeframes, here\u2019s a little information about the stages of a straightforward case:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Submit the Claim Notification Form. Defendant has 15 business days to accept liability;<\/li>\n<li>Obtain expert medical evidence which can take a few months to finalise. You will usually attend an appointment nearby for this as well;<\/li>\n<li>Submit a Final Settlement Pack to the Defendant and negotiate a fair settlement.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>So long as the negotiations aren\u2019t stifled, we can normally wrap them up in a few weeks as well. There will often be some back and forward communications, and a few offers from either side, but when we hit a happy middle ground, an offer can be accepted.<\/p>\n<p>For tailored advice about your potential claim for personal injury compensation, please don\u2019t hesitate to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.motorbikeinjurylawyers.co.uk\/start-your-claim\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>contact the team for some free and friendly advice on a no-obligation basis<\/strong>.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When it comes to motorcycle compensation claim timeframes, it isn\u2019t always an exact science, but we can give you a little guidance about what you may be able to expect.
