How much you could claim in emissions compensation can depend on the individual circumstances of your case. However, some claims did settle last year, so we can look at those as potential estimates for guidance.
More importantly, it is the case that we are looking to be closing our doors on new emissions compensation claims we take on very soon, and you do not want to miss the deadlines. Find out if you are still eligible to start an emissions compensation claim by completing a few forms on our website here now.
How much could you claim in emissions compensation?
We can give you some rough information in terms of how much you could claim in emissions compensation, but cases can settle based on their own individual merits. We have previously talked about how some claims settled last year for a few thousand pounds each, but some cases could potentially settle for tens of thousands of pounds. For those that could settle for tens of thousands of pounds, it is about particular legislation in place that could allow you to recover a percentage of the total cost of your vehicle. As such, for performance vehicles and higher-end models that were purchased for tens of thousands of pounds at the start, you could be eligible to recover 25%, 50%, 75%, or even 100% of that purchase price.
A huge number of compensation claims against Volkswagen for the original “Dieselgate” Group Litigation Order (GLO) that started back in 2015 was settled last year. As part of the settlement that took place last year, many claimants recovered a couple of thousand pounds each. What that should tell you that it is absolutely worth your time pursuing a claim given that you could be eligible to recover a couple of thousands of pounds for a claim in compensation.
You can find out if you can claim on a No Win, No Fee basis by completing a few forms on our website here now.
IMPORTANT WARNINGS: deadlines close!
It is important to understand that we expect that deadlines will be falling for us to stop taking on new emissions cases very soon. In fact, by the time you are reading this article, the deadlines may already have expired.
Given that we are working on a No Win, No Fee basis, and you could be eligible to recover thousands of pounds in emissions compensation, there is no reason at all in our mind as to why you would not start a case now. We can either write off our legal fees so you do not have to pay for them, or you could be awarded thousands of pounds in damages. The alternative would be to not claim when you could be eligible to settle the case, meaning you are simply forgoing the damages pay-out that could have been recovered, meaning the carmaker will keep the money instead. That is no way to achieve access to justice at all.
Find out if you can start your emissions compensation case now
If you want to know how much you could claim in emissions compensation, the only way to find out is to start your case and get moving forward with the process right away.
However, as we have warned about in our recent articles of late, the deadlines for claiming are looming. We need to make sure that you are still eligible to pursue a case by completing a few forms as soon as you possibly can here now.
