Prepare a motor-accident claim where the other vehicle is unidentified or uninsured
Key facts
- Human involvement
- YellowClose supervision
- How AI is used
- From the police report and the searches the lawyer selects, list what was done to identify the vehicle, the dates of those steps, and which body the documents name. Do not say the search was enough.
- What the lawyer must review
- The lawyer decides whether the search is enough and who must be notified.
- Check each listed search against the document the lawyer selected.
- A late notice against a nominal body can bar the claim. Check the date.
- Health, wage and scheme records stay in the firm tool. ASCR r 9 and APP 11 apply, and a breach may be notifiable.
