If you’ve been in an accident or collision in the Tees Valley area, it’s your right to claim against the person at fault.
Whether you are a driver or a passenger, being involved in a road traffic accident (RTA) can be traumatic. It’s not always easy to start the process of making a compensation claim when your mind is so preoccupied with the accident itself. However, we are here to support you and make it as simple as we possibly can, with the help of our expert road traffic accident solicitors.
