Struck on foot. The strongest claim in NSW.
Pedestrians — hit by a motor vehicle in NSW.
Pedestrian injuries tend to be the most serious. The claims tend to be the strongest. We pursue the driver's CTP, coordinate hospital and rehab, and build the damages claim. Hit-and-run is covered by the Nominal Defendant Scheme. Had a car accident? Call Accident Hub.
You didn't have a seatbelt, a frame, or a chance
Pedestrians are the most vulnerable road users. Drivers carry a higher duty of care around them. That's baked into NSW law — and into how courts and the Personal Injury Commission interpret claims.
In almost every pedestrian-vs-vehicle collision, the driver is at least partly at fault. The only situations where a pedestrian is effectively 'at fault' are edge cases — walking onto a freeway, deliberately darting in front of a stopped vehicle. Even then, you're still entitled to statutory benefits for the first 52 weeks, regardless of fault.
You were on foot. You were hit. That's a claim we can pursue.
The pedestrian's claim
Hospital first, then the CTP claim, income support, damages — all coordinated behind the scenes.
Statutory benefits
Up to 52 weeks of income support and medical, longer for non-threshold claimants. Physio, orthopaedic review, psychology, OT — booked and paid through CTP.
Check your entitlementsNon-threshold damages
Pedestrian injuries are often non-threshold, sometimes catastrophic. We build the damages claim with proper expert evidence — medical, economic, care — so the number isn't guessed.
The full claimHospital coordination
If you're still in hospital when we're called, we coordinate with the ward, the social worker, and the admitting doctor. Discharge planning starts early. Families often make the first call.
How we run itStruck on foot anywhere in NSW? One call runs the claim. Had a car accident? Call Accident Hub.
We've been through this 1000 times. Been through it with you.
Families call us too — that's fine
Serious pedestrian crashes often land the injured person in ICU or on a ward for days. The first call to us is usually made by a partner, parent, adult child, or close friend — with the injured person's consent or as a reasonable step on their behalf.
We talk to family plainly. We explain what CTP covers, what the 28-day window means, and what we're doing while you sit at the bedside.
For the worst outcomes — permanent disability, catastrophic injury — we pursue the lifetime-care piece and the serious damages claim with the seriousness it needs.
