Being pursued by solicitors acting for Motor Insurers' Bureau for accident which was my fault: what options do I have?
I was involved in a motor accident in Jan 2006 and at the time I was uninsured. I hit a driver from behind and I am now being pursued for over £6,000 in damages and personal injury from solicitors acting for the MIB. This was over 2 years ago and I haven't got this sort of money. Do I have a case to defend?
You may well be in some difficulty here. If you were at fault then you are liable.
The MiB solicitors' job is to recover as much as possible balanced against the fact that they could spend too much time and money chasing you and get nothing.
They will be open to offers either to pay by instalments or to pay a lower lump sum.
You will need to fill out an income/expenditure summary and show that you cannot afford to pay.
