Barakaldo's Plaza Bide Onera is the focal point for both the city's courts of first instance and the Civil Registry, making it central to any legal proceedings related to traffic accidents. Located at Plaza Bide Onera, s/n (Postal Code 48901), this area is where civil legal claims from road incidents are processed. The high density of traffic and proximity to major urban routes make it a frequent scene for accidents requiring legal intervention.
2024 Traffic Compensation Table: Specific Examples
The 2024 Spanish traffic compensation scale (baremo) establishes specific amounts for each type of injury and incapacity days. For example, whiplash (cervical sprain) with 45 days off work is compensated with approximately €3,200 to €4,500, depending on severity and recovery time. A radius fracture requiring 60 days off and leaving functional aftereffects is typically compensated between €6,000 and €9,000. For 30 days off work without sequelae, the compensation is usually €1,800 to €2,300 according to current rates. These figures may increase if there are persistent sequelae, such as mobility limitation or chronic pain, which are valued separately based on the points system in the baremo.
Step-by-Step Process for Filing a Claim in Barakaldo
In Barakaldo, traffic accident claims are generally processed at the Courts of First Instance located at Plaza Bide Onera, s/n, 48901 Barakaldo. The process starts with a prior claim to the liable insurer, which must provide a reasoned offer within three months. If the offer is unsatisfactory or not received, the judicial route is available.
You have one year from the stabilization of your injuries (medical discharge) to initiate legal action. Depending on the severity (e.g., serious imprudence), criminal proceedings may be applicable, but most claims for personal and property damages are resolved civilly at the Barakaldo courts. All documentation is filed on the ground floor of the Justice Palace at Plaza Bide Onera, where the Civil Registry is also located for related procedures.
