Understand Your Options After Being Hit By A Vehicle
Being hit by a vehicle can cause serious injuries & a long recovery. With little protection on foot, even a low-speed impact can leave lasting harm.
If you were hit while on foot or using a mobility aid, we’ll deal with the insurer for you, so you can focus on your recovery.
You do not need to own a car to make a claim. Where a registered vehicle caused or contributed to your injuries, a claim may be made to its Compulsory Third Party (CTP) insurer.
We’ll identify the right insurer & lodge your claim for you.
Drivers & insurers may argue you stepped out suddenly, were distracted or crossed in the wrong place. Witness accounts, CCTV & dashcam footage can help show what really happened.
We’ll gather that evidence & challenge any unfair blame, so your side is heard.
Pedestrian injuries are often serious & can affect your ability to work, move freely & manage daily tasks.
We’ll assess how your injuries affect you now & in the years ahead.
Strict notice deadlines apply & key evidence can be lost if it is not collected quickly.

How We Handle Your Claim
Tell us where you were on foot & how the vehicle hit you. A senior lawyer will review your case & contact you within 24 hours.
We check whether the driver should have given way, then assess your injuries & the relevant claim pathway.
We gather key evidence from the scene, lodge your claim with the at-fault vehicle’s insurer and negotiate for you.
We work towards resolving your claim. If a settlement cannot be reached, we explain the available next steps & continue representing you where appropriate.
Footage from nearby cameras is often deleted or recorded over within days or weeks.
This footage can be key to showing you weren’t at fault. We’ll help track it down & request it before it’s gone.
Drivers must take care to look out for people on foot, especially at crossings, intersections & driveways.
If a driver failed to see you, that may help show who was at fault. We’ll look at the evidence & explain where you stand.
Some injuries, like head or joint injuries, aren’t fully understood until weeks or months later.
We’ll keep track of your recovery with you, so nothing is settled before the full picture is clear.
Pedestrian accident claims involve strict deadlines & procedural requirements. Missing them can put a claim at risk.

Yes, you may be able to claim if the driver caused or contributed to the accident. The claim is generally made to the vehicle’s CTP insurer, not the driver personally.
You may still be able to claim. Crossing outside a marked crossing does not automatically stop a claim, but it may reduce your compensation.
You may still be able to claim through the Nominal Defendant, which handles claims involving unidentified & uninsured vehicles.
Yes. A parent or guardian can usually make a claim on behalf of an injured child.
Seek medical attention, report the accident & keep records of your treatment, expenses & symptoms. If you can, photograph the scene, get witness details & look for nearby CCTV cameras. These can help show what happened & support a claim.
You may still have a claim. Fault is decided by the evidence, so we will review what happened & respond to the insurer on your behalf.
You can make a claim without a lawyer, but legal support is particularly useful where fault is disputed, injuries are serious or the driver cannot be identified.
