If you want to know what level of compensation you may be entitled to following on injury you've sustained while riding your motorcycle, then our Motorbike Accident Compensation Calculator will be of interest.
If you or a loved one have been injured in a motorbike accident the consequences can range from the relatively minor to those where the injuries are going to have a telling impact on a person's life, and in some cases, there may never be a full-recovery.
Obviously, ensuring physical and mental well-being should be the priority for relatives in the immediate days following the accident. However, whether injuries are minor or very severe, at some point thoughts must turn to seeking compensation for the pain and suffering caused.
Compensation will also help to ensure that the long-term road to recovery is as smooth and structured as possible with the best medical care afforded to the victim.
PSR Solicitors can offer you all the support you need to make a Motorbike Accident Compensation Claim.
When making a motorbike accident injury claim, calculating the compensation you can expect to receive can be a complex procedure. This is initially based on the seriousness of your injuries and the impact your injuries have on your immediate and future life.
Our brief guide to compensation values below will help you understand the range of settlement values associated with different types of motorbike injury claims.

I qualified as a solicitor in 1998 and worked as a Personal Injury Specialist throughout my legal career, dealing with high value serious injury cases obtaining both compensation and rehabilitation for my clients. I was a member of APIL (Association Of Personal injury Lawyers) and recognised by the Law Society as being a Senior Personal Injury Solicitor.
After working in various law firms, both small high street firms and a larger practice in Manchester, I saw a gap in the market for a high quality practice that had the same core high street values of being personable and approachable and combining them with the efficiency and professionalism of a larger practice. PSR Solicitors was therefore established in 2009 and since then PSR Solicitors has provided high quality legal services to local clients throughout North Wales and Cheshire.
I live in Chester with my young family and 2 dogs and enjoy regular holidays along the coast of North Wales and Ibiza.
I have recently been asked to join the board of trustees at Platform For Life, a mental health counselling charity in Chester. Good mental health is the foundation of a more fulfilled, happy and healthy life, yet many families struggle to access the help and support they need to achieve it. Platform for Life offers free local counselling and play therapy for families who would otherwise not be able to afford it.

Richard Layfield LLB (Hons)
Since joining PSR Solicitors in March 2013 I opened and managed our Rhyl office and became head of the Personal Injury department shortly thereafter. I therefore have responsible for managing Person Injury cases throughout the firm. In January 2024 I relocated to our head office in Chester.
I completed both my Law LLB and LPC degrees at Cardiff University, graduating in 2008 and 2009 respectively. Thereafter, I completed my 2-year training contract at a firm based in Cardiff. I was retained by this firm as a Criminal Defence Solicitor until I decided to relocate up to North Wales.
As an experienced Personal Injury Solicitor, I represent Claimants in all manner of personal injury case work including injuries as a result of Road Traffic Accidents, Accidents at Work, and Occupiers Liability Accidents. I handle all types off personal injury claims from the minor right through to complex more serious injury claims.
Outside of work I enjoy running and hiking, going to the gym, travel, cooking and am a keen rugby fan.

Solicitor - Head of Litigation
Mark House LLB (Hons)
I completed my law degree and legal practice course at Nottingham Law School, before qualifying as a solicitor in 2004. I then worked at a specialist personal injury firm in the East Midlands and a leading regional firm, before joining PSR in 2017.
With PSR I've continued to specialise in acting for Personal Injury claimants and have developed a keen understanding of the procedures and tactics involved in pursuing a claim, as well as the difficulties and concerns faced by people who have suffered as the result of an accident.
Since 2014 I've been proud to help hundreds of people. I've represented the public in all manner of injury claims, including serious orthopaedic injuries, brain damage, and psychological trauma. I was instructed to deal with claims for clients in the aftermath of the Potters Bar rail crash and the Penhallow hotel fire.
In addition, I represent clients in relation to all manner of disputes. I have dealt with professional negligence claims, such as those against solicitors and builders. I have helped clients recover money which is due to them and to dispute invoices which have been sent to them. I have helped business defend claims against them. I have tackled neighbour and boundary disputes.
I live locally to the Colwyn Bay office, and outside of work, I enjoy taking advantage of the coastal and mountain outdoor activities which are available on the doorstep. I'm also heavily involved with an outdoor pursuits charity, which I find an enjoyable and rewarding way of using my free time.

This is one of the most commonly asked questions, although each motorbike accident claim is almost certainly always different. It is nearly impossible to identify how much the claimant will receive at the point of the initial assessment.
Our team will consider all aspects of your injury and financial loss in detail to determine the total amount of compensation that should be claimed. The main factors to be considered are the severity of the injuries sustained, as well as the financial, physical, and emotional impact the injury has had and will have, on home and work-life.
It is worth noting that when people make compensation claims with PSR solicitors, they often think about how compensation can help with their physical injuries and loss of earnings. However, special damages such as the psychological impact of your accident will also be considered when putting together your injury claim.
PSR Solicitors are specialist Motorbike Accident Claim Solicitors and have a long-standing successful track record in settling a varied range of motorbike accident compensation claims.
It is possible to make a claim for injury compensation following a motorbike accident yourself if you are able to. Obviously, family, partners or even carers can start the claim process if the injured party is unable to do so. The time limit of 3 year on personal injury compensation claims means that you should seek legal advice regarding your road traffic accident at your earliest convenience.
During the process of working through a motorbike accident compensation claim, medical records will need to be obtained in order to establish the nature of your injuries at the time of the accident and prospects for recovery.
Compensation payouts vary according to the circumstances. With so many factors to consider, it’s almost impossible to state the amount of compensation a person can claim for a motorcycle accident until we have taken a more detailed look at the case.
Each year, hundreds of motorcyclists make successful compensation claims for injuries resulting from many situations. We have real expertise in this area, so please do call us to discuss your situation.
PSR is a leading law firm with Personal Injury Solicitors in Wales and Serious Injury Lawyers in Cheshire. With offices in Colwyn Bay, Ellesmere Port, Rhyl, Shotton, Wrexham, Wallasey, and Chester, we have been established in the heart of local communities since 2009.
Talk to us today if you have been injured and feel you are entitled to Compensation.
