What Is a Taxi Accident Claim?
A taxi accident claim is the legal process of seeking compensation if you were injured in a collision involving a taxi or private hire vehicle, such as an Uber, Bolt, or minicab. This applies whether you were a passenger, a pedestrian, a cyclist, or another driver.
Taxi and minicab accidents are often caused by:
• Driver error, speeding, or dangerous driving
• Poor vehicle maintenance or defective parts
• Distracted driving (e.g. mobile phone use)
• Collisions with uninsured or untraced drivers
• Passengers injured by sudden braking or unsafe manoeuvres
If you’ve been injured in the last 3 years and the accident was not your fault, LITKRAFT can help you start your claim and get the support you need to recover.
Who Can Claim After a Taxi Accident?
You may be entitled to compensation if you were:
• A taxi or minicab passenger injured in a crash, regardless of whether the taxi driver or another road user was at fault
• A pedestrian or cyclist struck by a taxi
• A driver of another vehicle involved in a collision with a taxi
• An Uber or Bolt passenger injured due to driver negligence
At LITKRAFT, we can also arrange replacement hire vehicles where possible, so you can stay mobile while your claim is ongoing.

How Much Compensation Could You Get?
The compensation you may receive after a taxi accident depends on your circumstances. Factors include:
• The type and severity of your injuries
• Recovery time and any ongoing symptoms
• Loss of earnings and impact on your future work
• The effect on your daily life, independence and wellbeing
• Medical treatment, rehabilitation, and out-of-pocket costs such as travel or damaged property
Since the introduction of the Official Injury Claim (OIC) Portal in England & Wales, payouts for certain whiplash and soft-tissue injuries are fixed by law and may be lower than before. More serious injuries are valued individually.
Your solicitor will use medical evidence, financial records, and official Judicial College Guidelines (JCG) to ensure your claim reflects the real impact on your life.

I am very impressed with the service provided. Thanks to LITKRAFT assistant I was able to prove my innocence. Third party was denying the damages suffered, but we never gave up, resulting in a settlement of compensation that I was really happy with.
If you had an accident – immediately call LITKRAFT. They are true professionals and it really shows, as they can tell you straight away if you have a case. When I had another accident I emailed all details to them and they called me back within 20 min.
Great company, fantastic staff who are just a phone call away to help. They were very patient in explaining every document received from solicitors or doctors. When we first started the claims process, the other party tried to deny liability, but LITKRAFT solicitor fought my case in court and won it. I was delighted with the process and I couldn’t have asked for anything more from LITKRAFT.
