Dear forum members and our top contributors. Many thanks for your help and support, it's invaluable.

I have a question regarding the maximum timeframe within which the insurance company can initiate Legal proceedings or notify about Letter of Claim or Letter Before Claim.

I understand it's 6 years from date of the accident, but some say it's 6 years from the last communication from the insurer. Some people also it's 6 years from the date of conviction. Please can you advise.

I am just into the last 6 months or the 6 year time period, fingers crossed.

Thanks again,

Sam
 
You’ve kind of answered your own question, the timeframe is 6 years from the incident, not from last communication, if it was from last communication logically would make it a way longer process and as well Personal injury claims are 3 years from date of incident

You normally have 6 years to begin a claim from when your loss first occurred, so for the insurers this would be when they began paying out money to the other party.

Hope this helps.
 
I think you just answered your own question. I don't like answering repetitive questions and those that have already been answered by others. Just simply read.
Yes and know. i raised this question since there were different answers from people ie 6 years from date of accident / 6 years from last communication (which makes out life like sword of Democles)
