How Our California Pedestrian Accident Law Firm Can Help

If you’ve been injured in a pedestrian accident that was caused by a negligent motorist, the legal damages – or covered physical, financial, and emotional losses – you suffer can be overwhelming. When you’re out and about on foot in beautiful Southern California, nothing comes between you and the immense impact of an accident, and common categories of loss include all the following:  

  • The cost of medical bills, which may  have no end in sight and may need to address related healthcare needs you’ll likely face in the future
  • Your lost earnings, which can include a decrease in your overall earning capacity or a derailed career
  • The physical and emotional pain and suffering you endure, which – in the aftermath of a life-threatening pedestrian accident – can be difficult to overstate and can easily outpace the other categories of loss you experience combined


Key Advice After Your Accident

If you’re a pedestrian accident victim, you’re likely at a loss in terms of how to protect both your health and your claim, and you may not have any idea what to do first. The good news is that, although your claim is specific to your situation, there are important steps that everyone in your position can take to help pave the way forward toward just compensation and beneficial health outcomes. 

1. Make Your Health Your Priority

Your pedestrian accident claim will play a pivotal role in your recovery, but it’s a matter that’s best left in the capable hands of your experienced California pedestrian accident lawyer, while you make your health and recovery your top priority. This includes all the following:

  • Seeking the immediate medical attention that you need
  • Carefully following your medical team’s advice and instructions
  • Following up on any related health complications you face during the recovery process

2. Consult with an Experienced California Pedestrian Accident Attorney Early On

The outcome of your claim will hinge on its strength, and bringing your strongest claim means having skilled legal counsel on your side from the outset. Your attorney will do the work necessary to protect your overall health and well-being by carefully compiling all the available evidence into a cohesive claim that accurately reflects the full range of your losses and that is difficult to challenge. When you have the right lawyer backing you up, you significantly improve your ability to obtain the compensation you deserve. 

3. Understand the Insurance Company's Position

Yes, the at-fault driver’s insurance provider will handle your pedestrian accident injury claim, but there are some important points to keep in mind. To begin, the insurance company – like all businesses – is motivated by profits, and this means that they’ll do whatever they can get away with to keep the compensation for your injuries as low as possible. 

One of the tools at their disposal is twisting statements made by you to meanings that better support their position, and they’re good at it. In other words, you’re well advised not to make a statement to the insurance company after the auto accident that leaves you injured, and you’re not required to do so. Ultimately, the best policy is directing the insurance company’s inquiries to your dedicated pedestrian accident attorney.

Another point to make about the involved insurance company is that they may attempt to settle your claim before you recognize the full scope of your losses. If the insurance rep handling your claim reaches out with an early settlement offer, take note, and don’t accept the offer until you’ve discussed the matter with a pedestrian accident lawyer in California who is up to speed with your claim. 

Additional tactics you should be on the lookout for in relation to the insurance company include all the following:

  • Making the claims process overly complicated or overly lengthy in an attempt to wear you down
  • Denying your claim from the outset in an attempt to scare you off
  • Denying the extent of your injuries and losses in an attempt to minimize your settlement amount

Don’t be fooled by the insurance company’s antics. Instead, leave them to your pedestrian accident attorney while you focus on regaining your health.

The Clock Is Ticking

It can take a considerable amount of time to obtain compensation that adequately covers the array of losses you incur in a pedestrian accident, but the fact is that there is a deadline looming. There is a statute of limitations in place, which is a time limit for filing a pedestrian accident lawsuit in California, and it’s a mere two years from the date of your injury-causing accident.

In those two years, a lot can happen, and losing sight of this critical deadline isn’t uncommon. You owe it to your future self to contact a diligent personal injury attorney as soon as you’re able to do so. The difference that taking this step early on can make is considerable.

Key Evidence You'll Need

Pedestrian accident claims are only as strong as the evidence that backs them up, and while your focused lawyer will move in and immediately begin gathering and skillfully compiling all the available evidence, knowing what’s involved can provide you with a better understanding of your unique case.

An important point to make here is that, as the victim of a pedestrian accident, you may not be in any shape to help with evidence gathering, but you can count on others at the scene to get involved. 

The kind of evidence that can help you win your case includes all the following:

  • Testimony of witnesses who saw the accident take place
  • Videos and photos snapped by bystanders at the scene
  • Dashcam footage, which can include footage from the at-fault driver’s vehicle
  • Footage captured by security cameras in the vicinity of the accident
  • Police reports, any tickets written by the attending officer, and any additional police documentation generated
  • Testimony of professionals with relevant expertise
  • Accident recreation models that outline the mechanics of the pedestrian accident
  • Your medical records and your medical team’s reports, which serve as testimony to the extent of your injuries

After being injured in a pedestrian accident is no time to take on the insurance company by cobbling together your own claim. While you focus on regaining your physical and emotional health and well-being, your persuasive personal injury lawyer will tend to the important task of bolstering your claim through skilled evidence gathering.


Information on Fees

You were injured by a negligent driver in a pedestrian accident, and your medical bills are likely mounting while your earnings may be plummeting. The thought of taking on additional legal costs may seem outside the realm of financial possibility, but in fact, it’s far more affordable than you probably realize.

Our reputable pedestrian accident attorneys in California work on what is called a contingency fee basis. This means that our pay is based directly on the outcome of the claim we’re representing. If your claim is successful, we will receive a prearranged percentage of your settlement or court award when the matter is finalized. If your claim doesn’t settle and fails to receive a court award, however, you won’t owe anything. 

At Feher Law, we accept the financial risk involved, which means don’t need to concern yourself with cost. The outcome of your claim determines our fees, and you can rest assured that we’ll leave no stone unturned in our fierce efforts to recover on your complete losses.

FAQs

Pedestrian claims tend to support substantial settlements and court awards based on the severity of the injuries sustained and the losses suffered. While the outcome of every pedestrian accident claim is determined on an individualized basis, you should seek compensation that covers your full range of covered losses.

If the driver who leaves you injured in a pedestrian accident leaves the scene, it supports an even more substantial pedestrian accident claim. If the driver is identified, you can seek punitive damages that are designed to punish them for their egregious recklessness rather than to compensate you.

Yes, a pedestrian can share fault in a pedestrian accident, such as by crossing outside a crosswalk, and their compensation can be decreased accordingly. When the involved driver isn’t deemed negligent in relation to the duty of care owed to pedestrians, the injured pedestrian can bear all responsibility for the accident.

California law affords pedestrians the right-of-way in both marked and unmarked crosswalks, which means at every intersection. Even when a motorist has a green light granting them the right-of-way, they are required to proceed with caution and should only enter the intersection when doing so doesn't put pedestrians at risk.
