Understanding claims for accident
Disclaimer: Our website contains general legal information. The legal information is not advice and should not be treated as such.
If you or a loved one were involved in a road crash that resulted in death, injury, or disablement, you are eligible to receive compensations from the Motor Accidents Claims Tribunal (MACT). Established under the Motor Vehicles Act of 1988, MACT is a civil court that gives victims an opportunity to be heard. If the accident also involved a hit-and-run, you may be eligible for further compensation from a program known as the Solatium Scheme.
The tool below helps you estimate the amount of money you may be eligible to receive from MACT or the Solatium Scheme, depending on the damage done. Before reading about the procedures below, click the button to read more about the types of claims you may be eligible for.
