We expect that when we’re crossing the street, walking through a parking lot, or strolling through the streets of downtown Brock Township, we won’t be hit by a car. After all, pedestrians usually have the right-of-way, and even when they don’t, it’s expected that a driver won’t hit them! However, there are many distractions for drivers, from looking for a good parking space to fiddling with their playlists, texting a friend, or just daydreaming. Just a few brief seconds of inattention can result in a debilitating injury for the poor pedestrian. If you or someone you love was injured in a pedestrian accident, you could be eligible for a significant settlement, and our Brick Township pedestrian accident lawyer can help you get it.

Pedestrian accident injuries can be serious, even if the car that struck you wasn’t moving very fast. The impact with the vehicle, then the hard pavement, can cause traumatic brain injury, broken bones, and internal organ damage. Some victims may not fully recover; almost all require tens of thousands of dollars worth of medical care. Your settlement should cover all the medical care you need for maximum medical recovery, as well as rehabilitative therapy and accommodations in a skilled nursing facility.
Many people miss work because of their injuries, and our lawyers can help you secure the full amount of lost wages for this time. If you’re injured too badly to continue in your current line of work and must take a lower-paying job that accommodates your changed abilities, we can demand the difference in earning potential, as well, plus any vocational re-training you require to sustain gainful employment.
In addition to replenishing all your material losses from the pedestrian accident, our attorney also seeks compensation for the pain and suffering you experienced, the emotional trauma of the incident and aftermath, and your diminished quality of life.

We prepare each case anticipating that we will go to trial, so if the insurance company refuses to give you a fair settlement, we’re ready to take them to court to get you your fair due.

When it comes to accidents, pedestrians often suffer devastating injuries because unlike people in motor vehicles, they usually do not have any protection around them except their clothes and shoes. When a driver is distracted and negligent in following the rules of the road, it can negatively change a pedestrian’s life, sometimes forever. Pedestrians will often suffer injuries that cause long-term or permanent disablement. Common pedestrian injuries include but are not limited to, traumatic brain injuries (TBI), which include concussions; spine and spinal cord injuries; the need for amputation; and the loss of abilities, including cognitive abilities and physical paralysis; and broken bones. These injuries and ones not listed here often require surgeries, physical and psychological therapies, and changes to the victim’s lifestyle, including their not being able to work or they are unable to return to the kind of work they did before their injury. The financial impact of the victim’s injuries can be devastating to them and their families. A good Brick Township pedestrian accident lawyer will work tirelessly with the at-fault party’s insurance company to try to make sure that this does not happen to you.
The more common pedestrian injury accidents involve a motor vehicle or cyclist colliding with a pedestrian. These include collisions while pedestrians are in crosswalks, while jogging on a street, struck by a car or truck exiting a parking facility, or because a driver made a right turn on red without looking.
Pedestrians can also be injured in ways that do not involve motor vehicles. Events such as when a pedestrian is struck by a falling object from a construction site or an open office or apartment window, or when another pedestrian carrying heavy boxes or pushing a cart, etc. is not looking where they are going and collides with the victim, these things can also cause serious injuries.
If you have been injured while walking in Florida, a good Brick Township pedestrian accident lawyer can fight for your right to monetary compensation so that you can focus your time and energy on healing and rehabilitation, and trying to get back to the life you knew prior to being injured because of negligent behavior. When you are injured, the last thing that you and your family should be doing is worrying about trying to find the money to pay for expenses that are the result of your injury. If we do not win, you do not have to pay for our services. For highly skilled and compassionate legal support, contact Davis & Brusca, LLC for a free consultation today.
