How much compensation will I receive for my pedestrian accident injuries?

If you have been injured as a pedestrian in an accident involving a motor vehicle it is likely that you have sustained injuries which could be of a serious nature. This may be a very anxious time for you and as well as wondering how long it will take you to recover from your injuries you may also be wondering whether you are entitled to make a claim for compensation and, if so, how much compensation you are likely to receive.

When you ask Loyalty Law to help you with your claim one of our expert personal injury solicitors – who specialise in pedestrian accident claims – will arrange for you to be seen by a medical expert who will assess your injuries and prepare a medical report detailing your injuries and providing a future prognosis. Your solicitor will then use this report to value your injury claim by comparing your injuries with that of other Claimants (whose cases have already been settled) who have suffered similar injuries to your own. In addition, your solicitor will refer to guidelines called the Judicial Studies Board Guidelines to assess the value of your injury claim. Your solicitor will then send a copy of the medical report to the other side’s solicitor, with your agreement, and will negotiate settlement of your claim. In the unlikely event that your claim cannot be settled by negotiation between the parties your solicitor will order court proceedings and the amount of compensation you are awarded will be decided by a Judge.

In addition to claiming for the pain and suffering you have experienced (called your general damages claim) you will also be entitled to claim an amount for special damages. This includes items such as lost earnings, lost overtime, treatment costs and travelling expense.

Why Choose Loyalty Law For Your Pedestrian Accident Claim?

All Loyalty Law solicitors are checked and vetted to ensure that they meet our criteria in the following ways:-

• Before they can start working for you, they are interviewed by our managing director, a solicitor himself (although no longer practising). He is quickly able to assess whether they have the legal skills needed, but also whether they are easy to speak with on the telephone and will give you the service that you deserve.
• At the end of every accident claim, we carry out an interview with each client to ensure that they have been completely satisfied with the service provided. This ensures that not only does the solicitor start off by providing an excellent service, but through continual feedback they continue to achieve the right levels of service for you. It means that people like you are constantly monitoring and providing feedback on the service and is one of the reasons why we believe that you should ask Loyalty Law to help you find the right solicitor.
