Our recent blog post discussed the horrors of a pedestrian versus vehicle accident. The impacts of these accidents can easily be harrowing. Not only do pedestrian accidents impact the pedestrian, they also impact the family members who interact with the pedestrian on a regular basis. While we fully understand that seeking compensation doesn’t take away the effects, it can help you to reduce the financial stress that you face because of the accident.

One thing that you have to remember is that drivers have specific duties to keep from hitting pedestrians. Unfortunately, we live in a society that sometimes opts to place the focus on hurrying instead of safety. Drivers aren’t willing to stop for a minute so a pedestrian who has the right-of-way can cross in the crosswalk. Instead, these drivers might try to rush through the crosswalk. This can lead to the pedestrian being struck.

When a pedestrian is struck, there is a good chance that the injuries are severe. Broken bones, head injuries and spinal cord injuries are some of the possible injuries. Not only do you have to deal with the medical aspects of the injury, you also have to deal with the financial aspect and the pain. You might also be dealing with the emotional impact of the injury.

We can help you to seek compensation for your injuries. We work with you in an effort to get the compensation that you deserve. From determining who is going to be named as a defendant through the final resolution of the case, we are here to walk by your side to show how the case impacted your life.
