Road accident/whiplash compensation lawyers - Wakefield

Any accident which takes place on a public highway or other public place can be termed a road accident. Obviously there is usually a vehicle of some sort involved, either colliding with another vehicle, or with a cycle, motorbike or pedestrian for example.

Our specialist lawyers will be able to advise you on these changes.
