When a road traffic accident claim is started, a solicitor will usually invite the other driver’s insurer to consider providing rehabilitation, which is usually agreeable if that insurer admits that the accident was caused by the person it insures and often also where very serious injuries have been suffered, the need for rehabilitation is very obvious and there is every likelihood that early access to rehabilitation will improve the injured person’s long-term position such that their claim may be less expensive to settle. If the other insurer is not so willing, but there is a clear need for early intervention, then a solicitor can make arrangements for the need to be independently assessed and will then work with the other insurer to ensure that anything identified as being necessary is accessed as early as possible.
