Le Roux Consulting We work with several reputable firms of attorneys whom are all registered with the Cape Law Society to deliver the best service to our clients.

Le Roux Consulting was started in 2002 to address the ever growing need for professional advice and assistance with regards to third party and personal injury claims without having to fork out hundreds of Rands in upfront fees. Over the past 10 years we've been successful in getting fast and top settlements’ for our clients. Were you or someone you know involved in a motor vehicle accident within

the last three years? Have you or they claimed from the Road Accident Fund? Some myths about the Road Accident Fund;

> The fund is bankrupt.
- The fund is cash-flow positive and receives funding from the fuel levy charged by the National Treasury. As long as motorists use fuel then there will always be funding.

> I can't claim because the driver was the guilty party.
- Recent changes to the legislation allow passengers of the guilty party to claim.

> Pedestrians and cyclists can't claim as they were not in a vehicle.
- If the accident involved another motor vehicle i.e. car or motorbike then a claim could be lodged.

> You have to have suffered major injuries and disabilities to claim.
- Not necessarily. If your medical aide didn't cover certain expenses or if there are future complications as a result of the injuries it's best to ensure that a claim is lodged if possible. If you know of someone that was injured as a result of a motor vehicle accident or medical malpractice we will pay a referral fee for every case taken on regardless if the claim is successful or not. Why not give us a try and experience professional and top class service like you've never had before. You can e-mail me on [email protected] or via this FB page for further information.

Do I have a claim?

To have a claim, under the current system in terms of the 1996 Act of Parliament, you need to satisfy two requirements:
Firstly, that you were injured in an accident, however minor that injury may be;
Secondly, that you were not to blame for the accident.
It starts off simply enough, but of course blame is something that in itself has many legal complexities, and is one of the many reasons why it is in your interests to do this type of claim with the help of a professional in the form of an attorney. If, for example you are a passenger, there are various categories and exceptions and while you may not be to blame, you may also be a passenger in a one vehicle only accident, in which case, your claim may well be limited to only R 25,000 against the Road Accident Fund. That's a very rough summary of what can be a complex legal situation at times. It does however give you an idea as to the basics relating to the complexities that can surround negligence. If you are slightly to blame for the accident, you will still have a claim, as our law recognizes the principle of apportionment which means that if, the example, a Court says that both you and the other party are equally to blame, then you will both have a 50% claim. In short, if for example, your total claim is worth R 50,000 then after a 50% apportionment you will receive a sum of R 25,000 as your award.
The second aspect is to show you have been injured in an accident, and had medical treatment subsequent to the accident.
If you are still uncertain as to whether you have a claim or not, please address an e-mail to us at [email protected] and we will see if we can help you, or give you further advice.

What to Do After a Car, Truck or Motorcycle Accident

Helpful Tips If You are Involved in a Road Accident

We understand how upsetting accidents can be. If you are in a car, truck or motorcycle accident in South Africa, it is important to try to stay as calm as possible to help others in need and also to protect your rights when someone else is negligent.

At Le Roux Consulting, we have a few tips for people involved in accidents. We encourage you to print out this page and keep a copy in your glove box:
• Turn on your emergency lights.
• Help those injured by calling an ambulance. Don't try to move an injured person as this can aggravate the injury.
• Contact the police and tell them about any injuries or if anyone appears to be intoxicated.
• Gather information from other drivers, passengers, pedestrians or witnesses, including addresses and driver's license numbers, full names, insurance status of drivers, license plate numbers, make and model of cars, name of person to whom vehicle is registered and phone numbers.
• Write down details of the accident (time and date of the crash, how the accident happened, if anyone was intoxicated, direction of the vehicles, weather conditions, names and badge numbers of police officers who came to the scene, and any damage to the cars or trucks). If you don't have a pen or paper available, many cell phones have a memo function to take voice messages.
• Use a camera or your cell phone to take pictures of the crash scene, including damage to the cars, street signs, skid marks, and weather conditions.
• Make a diagram showing the direction the cars were travelling and where the impact occurred.
• Note if you saw any problems with the other vehicles that may have contributed to the crash, including bald tires or a broken headlight.
• Don't discuss the accident with any other drivers or witness, or accept responsibility.

Over the years, we have listened to many heart-wrenching stories from our clients injured in car, truck and motorcycle accidents. We understand their frustration, which fuels our passion for pursuing justice.
