Don’t Hire a Cycling Manager to Lead a Football Team

Ι am a huge cycling fan, and many analogies I make are related to cycling and sports.

One analogy that I often use with friends and clients is that of a cycling manager who has managed to elevate local cyclists to the elite pro peloton of cycling. Patrick Lefevere comes to mind. His riders won. National titles, world titles, the classics, all the way to wins in the Tour de France.

How Can I Claim Lost Wages After a Car Accident In Cyprus?

If you were injured in a car accident and have lost wages as a result, you may be able to recover those lost wages from the insurance company of the at-fault driver.

The law in Cyprus is clear: loss of income that was caused due to an accident is recoverable from the party at fault (or their insurers). Lawyers call this kind of damages “special damages”.

Now, even though the law is clear, insurance companies are always ready to put up a fight before they pay compensation and, naturally, they will always request proof of your losses.

How Long After a Car Accident Can I Claim Insurance Compensation in Cyprus

Under Cyprus law, the time limit for making a compensation claim after a car accident is generally three years from the date of the accident. This is known as the "limitation period".

However, it is important to note that it is best to file a claim for compensation as soon as possible after an accident, as delay can affect the strength of the claim and the ability to gather evidence. It is recommended to file a claim within the first few months after the accident, if possible and if you have all your evidence available.
