Hiring a knowledgeable and skilled personal injury attorney can benefit you even if the driver is clearly at fault. Insurance companies are often more concerned with protecting their bottom line than fairly compensating accident victims. An experienced pedestrian accident lawyer can:
- Conduct a thorough investigation of the accident to gather crucial evidence
- Determine which party(s) are liable for your injuries and identify all potential sources of compensation
- Calculate the value of your losses, including past and future expenses
- Negotiate with the insurance company to obtain maximum compensation
- File a pedestrian accident lawsuit against the at-fault party, if necessary
