Motor Insurance Fraud

Members of the Fraud team are acutely alive to the greater focus that insurers place on tackling on fraudulent claims, as well as the long-term significant increase in the volume of claims. Working as a team with insurers, solicitors, investigators, experts and lay clients is even more important in this area of work than in others, and we recognise that.

At Deans Court Chambers, we like to fully integrate with those handling claims, and take our share of the responsibility for presenting the best possible defence to the bogus claim, whilst keeping the commercial considerations at the forefront of our minds.

Since we like to work closely with our clients, we are aware of their policies and procedures. We also invest in training our barristers so that we keep up with technological advancements (analytics, social network analysis and anomaly detection, for example) and market developments.

The team is comfortable to work across all lines of business including Motor claims. We also represent local authorities and large self-insured companies when they are faced with fraudulent claims.

In Motor work, we have the technical skills to deal with policy coverage disputes, Road Traffic Act 1998 points and MIB claims, whilst also being able to offer vast experience of handling fraud rings, staged accidents and LVI cases.
