**In short:** Road traffic accidents and compensation: a lawyer from our network values your injuries under the statutory scale, we claim against the insurer and, if there is no agreement, we propose going to court. We handle it ourselves from start to finish, with professionals from our network, with a written quote before we start and your case visible in your client area. We ask for the police report, the medical reports, the discharge and the insurer's offer if there is one.

### WHAT IS INCLUDED AND WHAT IS NOT PROMISED

An insurer's first offer is not always the last. Before you sign the settlement, a lawyer from our network checks it against the scale to see whether days of impairment, unassessed sequelae or uncounted expenses are missing.

What it includes: valuation of injuries and sequelae under the current statutory scale; out-of-court claim to the insurer and negotiation; claim and hearing where the reasoned offer is not reasonable. What it does not include: it does not include the assessing doctor's cost where the case needs its own report, provisioned separately.

#### DOCUMENTS YOU WILL NEED

- Police report or the agreed accident statement.
- Full medical reports from emergency care to discharge.
- Receipts for expenses and evidence of days off work.

#### INDICATIVE TIMING

We answer your enquiry within 1 working day and send the written quote within 2 working days.

Once your documents are complete, we prepare the file between 3 and 10 working days.

The insurer has three months from the claim to make a reasoned offer or give a reasoned reply; if there is no agreement and a lawsuit is needed, the procedure adds months.

See [the pricing page](https://iberfacil.es/en/pricing) for how we charge this kind of matter.

### How it works

1. **MERITS AND DEADLINES** A lawyer from our network values your injuries and after-effects under the current scale, once they have stabilised.
2. **PROFESSIONAL AND QUOTE** We ask for the police report, the medical reports, the discharge and the insurer's offer if there is one. Price in writing, with a success share on what is collected.
3. **PLEADINGS AND EVIDENCE** We claim from the insurer in writing and negotiate its reasoned offer with the medical report on your side.
4. **HEARING AND JUDGMENT** If the offer is not reasonable, we propose going to court: a claim adds months and is quoted separately.

#### What to have at hand

- Police report or the agreed accident statement
- Full medical reports from emergency care to discharge
- Receipts for expenses and evidence of days off work

### Frequently asked questions

I HAVE ALREADY BEEN OFFERED AN AMOUNT.

Before you sign, have a lawyer from our network check the offer against the scale. An offer cannot be made conditional on you giving up further claims.

THE ACCIDENT WAS MY FAULT.

Depending on the policy there may be cover for your own injuries, but that is claimed through our insurance claims service.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE?

It depends on your injuries stabilising: it cannot be valued properly before medical discharge.
