There is a three year time limit from the date you were injured to make road traffic accident claim,  though we advise that it’s best to make the claim as quickly as possible while the evidence you’ll need is still fresh.
However, in some circumstances the limitation period can be extended for an even longer period. For instance, if an injured party was not yet 18 years old at the time of the accident – they have until their 21st birthday to register their claim. Also, some serious brain or head injuries can allow for an extension.
