Hi,

Just after some advice as to whether i should go forward with this claim or if i risk losing and having to pay someone else's solicitor fees.

Basically i was in my mates car in the back seat coming off the motorway, our vehicle was stationary in the queue behind many other cars and they crashed into the back of us.

The accident was 100% their fault, theres no question of this.

My neck hurt a lot that day and i suffered neck pain and stiffness for about a week, my lower back also ached. This in turn ruined the festival weekend i was on my way to, i had trouble sleeping and couldn't go to the front to watch bands because my neck was too stiff to be pushed about everywhere.

When i got back from the festival, 5 days later, i did not go to my GP as the pain was reduced and i thought it would go away with time.

The pain was fully gone in 2 weeks.

So should i claim for a ruined trip? Or/and injuries?
Any advice or previous experience with this type of situation welcome

Thanks

edit: my friend, the driver, is pursuing a claim for a ruined trip and his solicitors got in touch with me, they have sent me forms to fill in and said i may be required to see one of their local medical teams if i go ahead with the claim.
