At Fault Claims FAQ
Being involved in a crash is stressful, and it can feel even harder when you think the accident was your fault. Our at fault claims FAQs are here to guide you through what happens next, how your insurance is affected, and how Midlands Accident Specialists can still support you and the third part
Can you help me if the accident was my fault?
Yes. Midlands Accident Specialists can still help if you were at fault in a collision. We guide you through the claim, explain your options clearly, and manage repairs and communications with your insurer so the process is easier for you in cities like Birmingham, Nottingham, Leicester, Derby, and Stoke-on-Trent. Contact our at fault claims team today to discuss your options.
What support do you give in an at fault claim?
If you have an at fault claim we can help arrange recovery of your vehicle, book repairs with trusted local bodyshops, and explain what your policy is likely to cover. We also help you understand your excess, any impact on your no-claims bonus, and what you can expect to happen next if you live in places such as Wolverhampton, Coventry, or Northampton.
Can I still get a replacement car if I was at fault?
This depends on your insurance cover. If you have hire car or courtesy car cover on your policy, we can work with your insurer and the repairer to help you get back on the road. Where cover is limited in a at fault claim, we explain your choices in plain English so you can decide what works best for you in towns and cities across the Midlands.
How do you help the third party if I’m at fault?
If you caused the accident, the other driver (the third party) may still receive support through our services where suitable. We can help manage their non-fault side of the claim, arrange their repairs and replacement vehicle, and coordinate with insurers so both sides of the accident are handled in a fair and organised way.
Will using you affect my insurance more than going direct?
No. Fault is decided by the facts of the accident, not by who helps you manage the claim. Your insurer will still treat the claim as at fault or part fault based on the evidence. Our role is to make the process clearer and easier, whether the accident happened in Birmingham, Leicester, Derby, Nottingham, or any other Midlands city.
Can you still arrange quality repairs if the accident was my fault?
Yes. We can help direct your car into trusted local repair centres like BK Smart Repairs, who work to high standards. We focus on safety, correct parts, and good paintwork, whether the vehicle is based in areas like Stoke-on-Trent, Wolverhampton, Coventry, or nearby towns.
I’m worried about the other driver making a claim against me. Can you help?
We can explain what is likely to happen in an at fault claim situation and help make sure the right details reach the right insurer. Your insurer will handle any claim the third party makes against you, but we can help keep things clear and guide you on what to do if you are contacted or unsure about any part of the process.
I use my car for work around the Midlands. Can you still help if the crash was my fault?
Yes. If you drive for work in places like Birmingham, Leicester, Derby, Stoke-on-Trent, or Nottingham, being off the road can hurt your income. We can help you understand what support your policy offers, talk you through repair options, and work with your insurer or repairer to reduce the time your car is off the road where possible.
What should I do at the scene if I think I’m at fault?
Stay calm and make safety the first priority. Swap details with the other driver, take photos of the scene, and avoid admitting blame on the spot. Once you are safe, contact us and your insurer. We can guide you through the next steps, whether your accident was in a city centre like Birmingham or on an A-road near Leicester or Derby.
Why should I contact Midlands Accident Specialists for at-fault claims?
Even if you were at fault, you still face stress, repairs, phone calls, and time off the road. Midlands Accident Specialists can help manage the practical parts, explain your options in simple language, and support both you and, where suitable, the third party. Our goal is to make a difficult situation easier for drivers across the Midlands, from large cities such as Birmingham and Nottingham to busy areas like Leicester, Derby, Coventry, Wolverhampton, and Accident Management services in Stoke-on-Trent.
