Types of Claim
Road traffic accidents can happen from many different circumstances. Some types
of claims will mean a slightly different procedure will take place, which is
why it is important to obtain advice from a specialist. MASS Members will be
able to advise you on your specific circumstances. Select the type of claim
from the menu on the left for more information.
Pedestrian Claims
As a pedestrian although you may not have caused the accident you
may or may not be held to be partly to blame if your actions contributed to your
injury e.g. stepping out between parked cars.
It is important to get legal advice at an early stage.
In practice the claim will usually be settled by the driver's
insurance company or if a company car, the company or their insurers.
In some cases pedestrian claims will be bought against multiple drivers.
