Accident Personal Injury Claim ???

After a recent accident, I'd suffered a whiplash injury to the extent that regardless of going to work for the next 2-3 days after the accident, I've come to the point where I've realised that I'm not quite in a position to continue working the my employer would've wanted.

I work in the IT & hence constant exposure to monitor screen along with sitting longer hours on the chair. In addition to stiff neck along with shoulder & back pain already, with the working condition, I seem to be getting eye stress along with the severe headache at the back of my head.

Although, I've had this accident reported to CIS (my insurance company), I wonder if I should ALSO report it to the Norwich Union (insurer of the drive who crashed into me). Should I go through the insurance company's legal service (since I've fully comprehensive insurance) OR should I choose an option of "no win, no fee" based company ???

Any recommendation to get me pointed in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

get your legal on it straight away.

Go thru the process with the insurance company. It's why they are there, if they don't prove very fruitful to you then try the no Win no Fee people.

Go with the no win no fee option but make sure your lawyer is APIL accredited (Association of Personal Injury Lawyers). They will contact all insurers for you and will get you a fairer compensation payout. Take time off work too. you can recover the cost of lost income as part of your claim ie general damages.
