Our Reviews And Testimonials
Could You Be Eligible To Make A Personal Injury Claim?
You may be able to make a personal injury claim if:
- Someone owed you a duty of care
- They breached that duty
- You were injured as a result
A duty of care can apply in many everyday situations. Road users must take reasonable care to avoid causing harm to others. Employers must take steps to protect staff. Businesses, councils, landlords and occupiers must manage risks on their premises where reasonably possible.
This means you may be able to claim if your injury was caused by:
- A careless driver
- An unsafe workplace
- A poorly maintained pavement or public area
- A hazard in a shop, restaurant, car park or leisure venue
- A failure to follow health and safety rules
In our experience, many people delay asking for advice because they are unsure whether their accident is serious enough or whether another party can be held responsible. It is always worth checking. Our team can listen to what happened and explain whether you may have grounds to claim.

Common Accidents In Aylesbury That You Can Claim For
Accidents in Aylesbury can happen in many different settings, from busy roads and public transport routes to shops, workplaces and public spaces. Let’s take a look at some of the most common we see in our experience.
Road Traffic Accidents In Aylesbury
Aylesbury is a busy Buckinghamshire town, with traffic moving through key routes such as the A41, A413, A418, A4157, Tring Road, Bicester Road, Oxford Road, Walton Street, Exchange Street and Gatehouse Road.
Road traffic accident claims may involve:
- Car drivers and passengers
- Motorcyclists
- Cyclists
- Pedestrians
- Bus passengers
- Taxi passengers
- Delivery drivers and couriers
Accidents may happen at junctions, crossings, roundabouts, car parks or areas where pedestrians and vehicles share space. If another road user caused your accident by driving carelessly, failing to look properly, speeding, ignoring road markings or failing to give way, you may be able to claim compensation.
Slips, Trips And Falls
Slips and trips can happen in public spaces, commercial premises and residential areas.
In Aylesbury, these accidents may occur around:
- Market Square
- Friars Square Shopping Centre
- Hale Leys Shopping Centre
- Aylesbury railway station
- Great Western Street
- Exchange Street
- Walton Street
- The areas around Aylesbury bus station
- Supermarkets, restaurants, cafes and shops
- Car parks and pedestrian routes
Common causes include wet floors, uneven paving, loose mats, poor lighting, trailing cables, broken steps or hazards that have not been cleared or signposted.
If a business, local authority or property occupier failed to deal with a hazard within a reasonable time, you may be entitled to claim.
Workplace Accidents
Aylesbury and the wider Buckinghamshire area include offices, shops, healthcare settings, hospitality venues, schools, construction sites, warehouses, farms and industrial estates.
Workplace accident claims may involve:
- Manual handling injuries
- Falls from height
- Slips or trips at work
- Defective equipment
- Inadequate training
- Unsafe systems of work
- Construction site accidents
- Repetitive strain injuries
- Vehicle accidents in work settings
Employers have a legal duty to take reasonable steps to protect workers. If you were injured because your employer failed to provide safe equipment, proper training, suitable supervision or a safe working environment, you may be able to claim.
Accidents In Shops, Restaurants And Public Places
Aylesbury has a busy town centre, with shops, cafes, restaurants, entertainment venues and public spaces used by residents, commuters and visitors.
Accidents in public places can happen in:
- Retail stores
- Shopping centres
- Bars, pubs and restaurants
- Gyms and leisure centres
- Hotels
- Car parks
- Public pavements
- Parks and open spaces
- Transport hubs
If you were injured because of a preventable hazard, our solicitors can help assess whether the organisation responsible for the premises may be liable.
Cycling And Pedestrian Accidents
Cyclists and pedestrians are particularly vulnerable in collisions.
In Aylesbury, risks may arise around busy crossing points, junctions near the town centre, routes around the bus station, roads leading towards Stoke Mandeville Hospital, and commuter routes towards Bierton, Tring, Aston Clinton, Wendover and Stone.
If you were hit by a vehicle while walking or cycling, or if poor road conditions contributed to your injury, you may be able to claim compensation.
Does Aylesbury Have Any Accident Hotspots?
Like many busy county towns, Aylesbury has areas where traffic, pedestrians, cyclists, buses and commercial vehicles meet. These locations can create increased accident risk, particularly during commuting hours, school runs, weekend shopping periods and times of road disruption.
Key local areas where accidents or hazards may be more likely include:
- The A41 through and around Aylesbury
- Tring Road and routes towards Stoke Mandeville
- Bicester Road and the north-western approaches to the town
- Oxford Road
- Walton Street
- Exchange Street and Great Western Street
- Market Square and the surrounding town centre
- Friars Square and nearby shopping routes
- Aylesbury railway station and bus station areas
- The A413 towards Wendover
Bucks Radio reported a serious injury collision in September 2023 on the A41 near the roundabout of Sir Henry Lee Crescent, involving a car and two pedestrians. The report stated that one pedestrian sustained serious injuries and was treated at Stoke Mandeville Hospital.
Bucks Radio also reported a fatal collision on Great Western Street in October 2022 involving a pedestrian and a bus. This does not mean every incident in the area will lead to a claim, but it does show how serious accidents can occur in central transport areas where buses, pedestrians and other road users interact.
Aylesbury is also a growing town with regular traffic movement around new housing areas, retail parks, schools and commuter routes. In our experience, accident risk is often higher where road layouts are busy, where pedestrians cross between shops and transport links, or where vehicles move through congested junctions.
Accident claims always depend on the evidence, not just the location. If your accident happened on a busy road, in a shopping area, at work or in a public place, our team can help assess what happened and whether someone else may have been responsible.
What Injuries Can You Claim For?
Personal injury claims can involve many different types of injury. Some are immediately obvious, while others develop or worsen over time.
You may be able to claim for:
- Whiplash
- Back injuries
- Neck injuries
- Shoulder injuries
- Broken bones
- Sprains and soft tissue injuries
- Head injuries
- Brain injuries
- Cuts, scars and lacerations
- Burns
- Crush injuries
- Psychological trauma
- Anxiety following an accident
- Loss of mobility
Injuries can affect your ability to work, drive, care for family members, exercise or enjoy normal daily activities. Compensation is intended to reflect both the pain and suffering caused by the injury and the financial impact of the accident.
If you are unsure whether your injury is serious enough to claim, our team can provide a free initial assessment.
How Much Compensation Could You Receive?
The amount of compensation you could receive depends on the specific facts of your case.
Personal injury compensation is usually split into two main categories.
General Damages
General damages compensate you for the pain, suffering and loss of amenity caused by your injury.
This includes the physical pain of the injury, the effect on your daily life, any long-term symptoms and the impact on hobbies, independence or wellbeing. Let’s take a look at some potential compensation payouts with our free calculator tool:
Important notes
- Figures are based on the 18th edition of the Judicial College Guidelines, published on 9 April 2026.
- Compensation payouts could be higher as these figures only relate to physical injuries.
- These estimates do not include financial losses like loss of earnings, care costs, travel expenses or medical treatment.
Special Damages
Special damages compensate you for financial losses linked to the accident.
These may include:
- Lost earnings
- Future loss of earnings
- Medical treatment costs
- Prescription costs
- Travel expenses
- Care costs
- Rehabilitation
- Physiotherapy
- Home adaptations
- Damaged personal belongings
The more evidence you can provide, the easier it is to calculate your losses accurately. This may include payslips, receipts, invoices, appointment letters and travel records.
In our experience, people often underestimate the financial impact of an accident. Even small costs, such as taxi fares to appointments or prescription charges, may form part of your claim if they were caused by the injury.
Our solicitors can review the full impact of your accident and help value your claim properly.
Do I Need Evidence To Claim For An Accident In Aylesbury?
Evidence is important in any personal injury claim. It helps show how the accident happened, who may have been responsible and how your injuries have affected you.
Useful evidence may include:
- Photographs of the accident scene
- Photographs of your injuries
- CCTV footage
- Dashcam footage
- Witness contact details
- Accident report book entries
- Medical records
- Police reports for road traffic accidents
- Correspondence with an employer, council or business
- Receipts and proof of financial losses
If your accident happened in a shop, workplace, car park, restaurant or public area, it may be important to act quickly. CCTV can be overwritten and hazards may be repaired after the incident.
In our experience, early evidence can make a real difference, especially where liability is disputed or where the defendant argues that the hazard was not present for long enough.
Our solicitors can help identify what evidence may support your claim and explain how it can be obtained.
How Long Do I Have To Make A Personal Injury Claim?
In most personal injury claims, you have three years to start court proceedings. This usually runs from the date of the accident.
There are some exceptions.
For children, the three-year time limit does not begin until their 18th birthday. A parent, guardian or litigation friend may be able to claim on their behalf before then.
For people who lack mental capacity, the time limit may be paused unless capacity is regained.
It is always best to seek advice as soon as possible. Starting early gives your solicitor more time to gather evidence, assess medical records and build the strongest possible case.
No Win No Fee Personal Injury Claims
Many personal injury claims are handled under a No Win No Fee agreement.
This usually means:
- No upfront solicitor fees
- No legal fee to pay if your claim is unsuccessful
- A success fee is only deducted if your claim succeeds
The success fee is agreed with you before the claim begins and is taken from your compensation if your case is successful.
No Win No Fee agreements help people access legal support without the worry of paying solicitor fees upfront. This can be especially important if your injury has already affected your income, work or household finances.
Our team can explain how No Win No Fee claims work and whether this type of agreement may be suitable for your case.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Where Is The Nearest County Court For Aylesbury Personal Injury Claims?
Aylesbury has a Crown Court on Walton Street, but this is not usually the court used for ordinary civil money claims.
For civil claims, Milton Keynes County Court and Family Court, located at 351 Silbury Boulevard, Witan Gate East, Central Milton Keynes, MK9 2DT, is the main location for personal injury claims.
Most personal injury claims settle before a final court hearing, and your solicitor can usually manage the process remotely.
Where Can I Go For Medical Treatment After An Accident In Aylesbury?
If you need urgent medical help after an accident, call 999 or attend the nearest appropriate emergency department.
For non-emergency injuries, you may be able to use:
- NHS 111
- Your GP
- A local pharmacy
- An urgent treatment centre
Stoke Mandeville Hospital is located on Mandeville Road, Aylesbury, HP21 8AL. Its Emergency Department treats patients in an emergency and is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Always choose the right medical service for the seriousness of your injury. Medical records can also help support your claim by showing what injuries you suffered and when you sought treatment.
Should I Report An Accident Before Making A Claim?
Yes, where possible, you should report the accident to the relevant person or organisation.
For example:
- Report workplace accidents to your employer
- Report road traffic accidents to the police where required
- Report accidents in shops or restaurants to the manager
- Report pavement or public highway hazards to the local council
- Report accidents in rented premises to the landlord or managing agent
Reporting the accident creates a record of what happened. This can help support your claim later.
Can I Still Claim If I Was Partly Responsible?
Yes, you may still be able to claim if you were partly to blame.
This is known as contributory negligence. If the other party was also responsible, you may still receive compensation, but the amount could be reduced to reflect your share of responsibility.
For example, if you were found to be 25% responsible for an accident, your compensation could be reduced by 25%.
Our solicitors can assess the circumstances and explain how partial fault may affect your claim.
Can I Claim Compensation On Behalf Of My Child?
Yes. A parent, guardian or suitable adult may be able to claim on behalf of a child as a litigation friend.
Children have until their 18th birthday before the standard three-year limitation period begins. However, you do not need to wait until then. A claim can often be started earlier by an adult acting in the child’s best interests.
Any compensation awarded to a child usually has to be approved by the court and may be held until the child turns 18.
