Specialists in pedestrians hit by vehicles
If you have been hit as a pedestrian by a car, a motorbike, a bicycle or an electric scooter, you are entitled to claim the maximum compensation for your injuries. At Andreu Asociados we are lawyers specializing in pedestrian accidents: we are not tied to any insurance company, and we have our own medical experts who assess your injuries from day one, whatever the vehicle involved.
Every case is different and we handle each one individually, from whiplash to serious injuries, disabilities or, in the most painful cases, the death of the pedestrian. Your compensation is calculated by a specialist lawyer, not an online calculator.
If you have been offered compensation, consult us before accepting it. We advise you from the very first moment on medical procedures, aid and advance payments.

Every accident is unique and we handle each one individually, from whiplash to fractures, serious injuries or the death of the pedestrian. We advise you from the very first moment on medical procedures, aid and advance payments you may need.
What we claim for being hit by a car:
- Injuries and after-effects of the pedestrian under the current traffic compensation scale.
- A claim against the responsible vehicle's compulsory insurance.
- Medical, rehabilitation and travel expenses.
- Loss of earnings and, in the most serious cases, compensation for death.
Compensation for being hit by a motorbike
Accidents caused by motorbikes or mopeds tend to happen at higher speeds and with less time to react, which often leads to more serious injuries for the pedestrian. It is also common for an attempt to be made to attribute responsibility to the pedestrian that is not theirs to bear: our lawyers review every police report to defend the true version of events.
We have our own medical experts to document multiple traumas, fractures and after-effects, as well as to reconstruct the mechanics of the accident when it is necessary to establish the speed or manoeuvre of the rider.
What we claim for being hit by a motorbike:
- Serious injuries and multiple traumas under the traffic compensation scale.
- Defence against unfair attributions of responsibility to the pedestrian.
- A claim against the motorbike's compulsory insurance.
- Temporary or permanent disabilities resulting from the accident.
Compensation for being hit by a bicycle
When a pedestrian is hit by a bicycle, the claim is more complex than one involving a motor vehicle, since the cyclist does not always have their own compulsory insurance. We study each case to identify every available claim route: the cyclist's civil liability, their home insurance (which often includes family civil liability cover) or, in the case of more powerful electric bicycles comparable to a moped, a vehicle's compulsory insurance.
Our medical experts assess your injuries with the same rigour as in any other accident, and we advise you on the most effective route to obtain the maximum compensation according to the specific circumstances of the responsible cyclist.
What we claim for being hit by a bicycle:
- Injuries and after-effects of the pedestrian who was hit.
- The cyclist's civil liability, including their home insurance policy if they have one.
- A claim against the compulsory insurance on electric bicycles comparable to a moped.
- Medical expenses, rehabilitation costs and loss of earnings.
Compensation for being hit by an electric scooter (PMV)
Pedestrians being hit by electric scooters and other personal mobility vehicles (PMVs) has grown along with their use, especially on pavements and shared spaces. The rules on compulsory insurance for these vehicles vary by municipality and continue to evolve: we advise you on the regulations applicable to your specific case and on who must be held accountable for the accident.
We handle cases where the scooter is owned by the user as well as accidents caused by shared rental scooters, where there may be additional liability on the part of the operating company.
What we claim for being hit by a scooter:
- Injuries and after-effects of the pedestrian who was hit.
- Civil liability of the PMV user under the applicable municipal regulations.
