Pedestrian accidents are among the most severe types of personal injury cases due to the vulnerability of pedestrians compared to motor vehicles. When a pedestrian is struck by a car, truck, or other vehicle, the injuries can be life-threatening, often resulting in traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, broken bones, and even fatalities. At Charm City Injury Lawyer, we are dedicated to helping victims of pedestrian accidents and their families seek justice and secure the compensation they need to move forward with their lives.
Pedestrian accidents can occur for various reasons, many of which involve driver negligence. Common causes of pedestrian accidents include distracted driving, speeding, failing to yield at crosswalks, running red lights, and driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol. In some cases, poor road design or inadequate signage may also contribute to an accident. Regardless of the cause, our attorneys are skilled at investigating the circumstances of each case to determine liability and build a strong claim for compensation.
One of the challenges in pedestrian accident cases is proving fault, especially if the driver or their insurance company attempts to shift blame onto the pedestrian. Our legal team will thoroughly investigate the accident, gathering evidence such as police reports, witness statements, surveillance footage, and expert testimony to establish the driver’s negligence. We will also work with medical professionals to document the full extent of your injuries and ensure that all your medical needs, both present and future, are accounted for in your claim.
In addition to physical injuries, pedestrian accident victims may also experience emotional trauma and financial hardships due to medical bills, lost wages, and the inability to work or participate in daily activities. Our attorneys are committed to ensuring that all aspects of your damages, including pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of quality of life, are fully compensated.
Insurance companies representing the at-fault driver may attempt to minimize your claim or argue that you were partially responsible for the accident. Our attorneys are skilled negotiators who will advocate on your behalf and fight for a fair settlement that covers all your damages. If a settlement cannot be reached, we are prepared to take your case to court to seek justice.
