The Portal Company has released the personal injury claims
statistics for August 2020, and despite the number of issued Claims
Notification Forms (CNFs) increasing in June and July as the
lockdown restrictions in the UK were eased, the recent figures for
August dropped below the numbers recorded in July.
CNFs for claims relating to road traffic decreased 15% from July
to August, with EL and PL claims falling by around a quarter.
However, the figures recorded for August still remain above the
claims numbers recorded in May, the lowest totals since the start
of the pandemic.
The tables below show the difference between CNFs issued in July
and August 2020 as well as August 2019 and 2020.
