Yes depending on due to whose fault the collision took place you can definitely make a claim. Often neck injuries tend to be suppressed as the effects are not immediately visible but surface after a certain period of time has elapsed. It is important to follow up your claim as insurance companies often underpay depending on the seriousness of the accident. If you were involved in an auto accident you can make a claim under personal injury regarding medical bills and pain and suffering that one has undergone.
If the driver of the other vehicle was at fault then one can make a claim from his insurance company as well as one's own. Either way it is important to notify your insurance company after any accident however minor it may seem as it would save you future complications. Claims for auto accidents often take in to account a number of factors like insurance policies, amount of compensation, negligent driving, compliance with rules and regulations like having a driving license and wearing seat belt at the time of the accident, whether the driver at fault was under the influence of alcohol or drugs, the police report made by the police officer present at the accident site, testimony of witnesses and other related issues and as such it would be practical to avail of the services of a personal injury attorney.
