A car vs. pedestrian is not a fair fight and pedestrian accidents often end in catastrophic injuries. While the pedestrian may have the right of way, be prepared for a legal battle from the driver’s insurance company. Insurance companies will attempt to come up with any reason to blame you—you were wearing dark clothes, it was dark out, you shouldn’t have been there. Even if the police arrive at the scene, some officers do not have a full understanding of the rights and duties of motorists and pedestrians so may wrongly attribute fault to you or not issue a citation to the at-fault driver. You need an experienced legal team on your side that understands the laws and how to deal with the tactics that insurance companies use to evade liability.In the aftermath of a pedestrian accident you will have a lot of questions. Who was at fault? What insurance will cover me? Where do I get medical treatment? How do I get my medical bills paid? What if I have to miss work? Should I take the settlement the insurance company is offering? Can I be compensated for my pain and suffering?
