Injuries Suffered by Pedestrians
In the average pedestrian accident claim, the injured pedestrian has suffered catastrophic injuries. The medical treatments needed to alleviate those injuries can be extensive and last for years. The costs associated with that care will be steep, and insurance companies know as much. That is why they fight so hard to defeat pedestrian accident claims, even when the injuries are severe and life-changing.
Injuries often suffered in pedestrian accidents include:
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Paralysis
- Multiple broken bones
- Organ damage
- Permanent scarring
- Soft tissue injuries
If you have suffered such a terrible injury after being hit by a driver, then you should prepare for a fight from the insurance company that represents them. We’re here to empower you, amplify your voice, and elevate your case.
Do Pedestrians Always Have the Right-of-Way?
A cornerstone of most pedestrian accident cases is the concept of ‘right-of-way.’ Motorists and pedestrians must share the road safely and responsibly, which includes yielding the right-of-way to the other when it would prevent an accident. It is commonly said that pedestrians always have the right-of-way, but this is not wholly true. There are many traffic situations in which a pedestrian must yield to a motorist and, if they don’t and an accident happens, the pedestrian can be liable for it. Our pedestrian accident attorneys in Sterling Heights can investigate your accident to see who had the right-of-way and how that affects each person’s liability.
Pedestrians usually have the right of way when they are walking in or along:
- Marked crosswalks
- Parking lots
- Sidewalks
- Pedestrian-dedicated walkways
Using Evidence to Boost Your Case
We can search for evidence in many different places. Our top goal is getting you the most compensation possible, so we won’t slow down until we know we have a strong case to bring against the opposition. Sometimes, the best evidence is collected at the scene of the accident. Let us know if you were able to take photographs or videos of the scene. We can also speak with any eyewitnesses that might have seen the accident because they often have the best perspective of what happened.
