What Is a Low Impact Collision Claim?

A low impact collision claim in Bray is a type of personal injury claim that arises when someone is injured in a car accident that occurred at a relatively low speed. While these accidents often cause minimal vehicle damage, the physical injuries can still be significant.

Whiplash, soft tissue damage, and back or neck injuries are common outcomes. If the accident wasn’t your fault, you may be entitled to claim compensation for the harm and financial losses you’ve suffered.

Common Causes of Low Impact Collisions

Low impact accidents can happen in everyday situations, such as:

  • Rear-end shunts in traffic or at junctions
  • Collisions in car parks
  • Sudden braking or slow-moving traffic accidents
  • Drivers failing to leave adequate stopping distance
  • Distracted or careless driving in built-up areas

  • Whiplash and neck strain
  • Soft tissue damage
  • Lower back injuries
  • Shoulder pain and stiffness
  • Headaches and concussion

The legal term ‘No Win No Fee’ is used to describe how solicitors take on a case where they pay the costs of the litigation.

Solicitors in who operate on this basis pay all legal costs associated with the personal injury case.

In the vast majority of cases, clients would not be in a position to fund the cost of litigation and therefore it is usual for a specialised Personal Injury/Medical and Dental Negligence law firm to operate on a ‘No Win No Fee’ basis.

It should be noted that there is no prohibition on solicitors in undertaking work on a no win no fee basis, and solicitors are perfectly entitled to offer their services on a no win no fee basis.
