Pedestrian Accidents

Pedestrian accident claims are often amongst the most serious in terms of injuries and sometimes involve fatal accident claims. They can also often involve children being run over.

In those cases where blame for the pedestrian accident is not immediately clear it is important to contact witnesses quickly whilst matters are still fresh in their minds. In some cases contributory negligence will be alleged

If necessary, we will obtain a copy of the police report on the accident. We may also need to consider whether there have been previous accidents in the same spot and whether to obtain an independent accident investigator’s report on such things as visibility, stopping distances and the precise sequence of relevant traffic lights. 

If the driver is either uninsured or it is a hit and run accident then it may be necessary to make a claim against the Motor Insurers Bureau.

However it happened and whatever the size of the claim we are here to help. If you have been hit by a car or any other type of vehicle we will leave no stone unturned to get you the compensation you deserve.
