Hi wise ones.
My 6yr DS was crossing the road holding STBXH's hand. It was at a pedestrian crossing, the road is narrowed and the pavement has those bobbly things underfoot, but it's not a zebra crossing. They looked both ways (left,right,left...wrong way around), and stepped out. The wing mirror of the car hit DS's face. Nothing broken but a bloody nose, black eye and face and big swelling.
Police have dealt with the driver etc (who stopped and was very shaken), but can I claim compensation?? And how do I go about it??
I'm just glad he's alive and don't want to seem like I'm "grabbing", but is this a legitimate claim scenario???
I've never claimed for anything before so don't know what I'm doing!!!!
