Motor Insurance Bureau Caselaw Database
Malcolm Johnson, the principal of this firm began his legal career specialising in road traffic accidents claims. He went on to write a number of articles in this field, before being asked by Central Law Training to lecture on the subject of claims against the Motor Insurers’ Bureau. He now gives lectures to law firms across England and Wales on this subject. He has also contributed to “Claims against the Motor Insurers’ Bureau” published by the Law Society.
MIB claims do cause difficulty for practitioners. The MIB is not like a normal insurance company and the provisions of the 1999 and 2003 Agreements can cause problems. Over the years, the courts have dealt with claims against the MIB and made judgments that have, to some extent, clarified the law in this area. The MIB Caselaw Database aims to provide busy practitioners with a series of signposts to the relevant cases and an overview of what the court is saying in each case.

Some of the cases in this Caselaw Library do not involve the Motor Insurers’ Bureau, but they relate instead to issues of road traffic and motor insurance. These cases have been included because they relate to issues that impact on cases involving the Bureau, such as “knowledge of no insurance.“
