was in a car accident last December
car was a write off, guy ran into back of me, I was doing 5mph outside school he was doing 35,
ive had whiplash & physcholgical probs (couldnt drive for 8 months still not doing peak hour or busy roads. ie motorways
the solicitor my car ins company put on to me has been ok
but I asked her for a copy of my instructions that she sends to insurers she says
'' I have written to the third party insurers on your behalf. I cannot forward you a copy of the letter''
wonder why not havnt I a right to see this?
can she withhold it or am I asking too much?
Anyone know please?

sorry if i have
i had a few pages open at one time
thought i'd posted in the one where you can chat about anything
can it be moved please anybody:o
not sure who you would write to though - it' been 6 years since I worked there so memory is rather sketchy.
I had a crash earlier this year - someone went into the back of me too but the insurance company dealt with it from start to finish - I had no need to involve solicitors cos it was cut & dried cos he ran into the back of me.
I was compensated for the whiplash, physio sessions & they were even going to pay for counselling if I felt I needed it!!
Hope you get it sorted!
It's imperative that she maintains a good line of communication with you. If you feel you are not getting a good service, then inform your insurance company and ask for another solicitor.
It is unfortunate but inevitable that a lot of solicitors who handle these types of cases are crap at their jobs.
she said shes sent it off, so i said can i have a copy
you could be right that shes NOT sent it
I shall email her now & ask why
thanks both of you for replies
Hi, Martin’s asked me to post this in these circumstances: I’ve asked Board Guides to move threads if they’ll receive a better response elsewhere(please see this rule) so this post/thread has been moved to another board, where it should get more replies. If you have any questions about this policy please email [EMAIL="abuse@moneysavingexpert.com"][email protected][/EMAIL].
