The Motor Insurers Bureau (MIB) is funded under a government charter through a levy assessed on all insurance companies. The MIB is tasked with protecting motor vehicle accident victims against financial loss from uninsured or untraced drivers. Compensation claims are reviewed according to complex guidelines that differ from the adjudication of normal accident claims involving insured drivers.

Most claims for compensation to Motor Insurers Bureau fall under one of two categories :-

1. Uninsured Driver: If the negligent driver in a motor accident is uninsured, the MIB will adjudicate the claim and fully compensate the victim for all damages and legal costs – subject to a nominal insurance excess deduction – even if the uninsured motorist is unable to personally pay those costs. Thereafter, the MIB will pursue recovery of those funds expended, from the uninsured motorist.

   Our specialists will represent your claim against an uninsured motorist before the Motor Insurers Bureau using the no win no fee scheme to assure recovery of the compensation to which you are entitled. Compensation is paid in full with no deductions.

2. Unidentified Driver: In the second scenario, the negligent driver is unidentified. The Untraced Driver Agreement authorises the Motor Insurers Bureau to compensate victims for personal injuries incurred as a result of a hit and run driver. However, the MIB guidelines allow only partial payment of the claimant’s legal costs.

   Our solicitors will still represent you on a no win no fee basis. Do note, however, that upon successful resolution of your claim, we may recover some of our fees from your compensation. In claims involving untraced drivers, your solicitor will fully inform you of the charges that could potentially reduce your award.
