Road accidents
Compensation for damage from road accidents, also for foreign clients
Legal assistance, throughout Italy, to obtain compensation adequate to the damage actually suffered.
We assist foreign clients involved in road accidents throughout Italy, with secure and transparent legal support, the result of years of experience in road accident claims.
Handling a claim in a foreign country can be particularly complex for those who do not know the language, the procedures and the Italian legal system.
Our firm can be the client’s point of reference in Italy and handle dealings with the counterparties, the insurance companies, the professionals and the other parties involved in handling the claim. When necessary, we can also coordinate assistance with professionals and contacts in other countries.
The costs of the case, clear from the outset
We know that, especially after a serious accident, medical, rehabilitation and legal costs can be an additional obstacle for the injured person and their family.
The financial terms of the engagement, including the costs of the case, are agreed in writing with the client before work begins.
The goal is to allow the injured person to focus on their health and their recovery, while we take care of protecting their rights.
Assistance in cases of serious and very serious accidents
In accidents that cause serious or very serious injuries, permanent disabilities or the death of the victim, legal protection requires particular experience and a multidisciplinary approach.
We support the injured person and their family in reconstructing the accident, in the medico-legal assessment of the consequences and in the complete quantification of the damage. When necessary, we coordinate the involvement of medico-legal experts, specialists and technicians.
Consolidated experience in compensation for damage
Handling a serious accident requires experience, expertise and a complete view of personal injury.
In collaboration with a law firm in Rome, which deals exclusively with compensation for damage, we assist people who have suffered injuries and personal and financial consequences as a result of road accidents.
Our approach offers the assisted person competent and transparent legal assistance, which also takes care of the practical aspects.
We rely on professionals in the sector with whom we work, to offer those who turn to us medical support, as well as legal support.
Legal assistance to obtain fair compensation after a road accident
A road accident can have consequences far deeper than simple damage to the vehicle.
Physical injuries, permanent disabilities, periods of incapacity, medical and rehabilitation costs, loss or reduction of the ability to work, consequences on personal and family life: an accident can turn into an event with lasting consequences.
In these situations it is essential to turn in good time to a professional experienced in protecting the injured person.
Our firm has assisted for years people who are victims of road accidents and serious claims, in Italy and also for accidents that occurred abroad.
Our goal is to reconstruct precisely what happened, identify responsibilities, assess the consequences of the accident in full and protect the client’s right to compensation adequate to the damage actually suffered.
Every accident must be assessed in its entirety
The value of compensation cannot be established by looking only at the injuries suffered immediately after the accident.
An adequate assessment must take into account the injured person’s whole journey and the consequences that the claim has produced on their life.
Depending on the case, the following may be relevant:
- temporary and permanent biological damage, that is, the injury to physical or mental health ascertained by the medico-legal expert;
- moral damage, that is, the inner suffering caused by the accident;
- medical, pharmaceutical and rehabilitation costs;
- future care and assistance costs;
- loss or reduction of income;
- the consequences on the ability to work;
- material damage;
- the need for assistance and support for the person;
- further damage, economic and non-economic, recognisable under the applicable law.
Identifying and correctly documenting all these items is essential, so that no part of the damage remains outside the assessment.
From reconstructing the accident to the claim for compensation
Every case is analysed individually.
We start from reconstructing the dynamics of the claim and examining the available documentation, to identify responsibilities and assess the consequences of the accident.
We rely on the collaboration of medico-legal experts, specialists and technicians, so as to integrate the legal assessment with the medico-legal one.
The work may include:
- the analysis of the dynamics of the accident;
- the examination of reports, friendly accident reports (the CAI form completed after the accident) and documentation relating to the claim;
- the collection and analysis of the healthcare documentation;
- the medico-legal assessment of the injuries;
- the technical reconstruction of the dynamics of the accident, when necessary;
- the identification of those responsible;
- the management of dealings with the insurance companies;
- the quantification of the various items of damage;
- the pre-litigation claim for compensation, that is, outside the court;
- the negotiation with the insurance company;
- assistance in any court proceedings.
Protection that looks at the person, not only at the claim
Behind every serious accident there is a person.
For this reason our assistance is not limited to the insurance case, but considers the injured person’s entire journey.
When the injuries are significant, the lawyer’s work must be coordinated with that of the medico-legal experts and the healthcare professionals who help to correctly assess the consequences of the claim.
Documenting well the clinical evolution, the therapies, the costs incurred and the permanent consequences can be decisive in the subsequent assessment of compensation.
Compensation can also be obtained without going to court
Court action is not necessarily the first step.
When the case allows, we first of all seek a pre-litigation solution: we reconstruct the damage, prepare the claim for compensation and negotiate with the insurance company or with the person responsible.
If, on the other hand, it is not possible to reach an adequate solution amicably, we assess with the client whether to proceed in court.
The goal is to identify, case by case, the most effective strategy to fully reconstruct the damage and protect the rights of the injured person.
