Determining Responsibility for a Pedestrian Accident Case

If you’ve been involved in a pedestrian accident and another party’s negligence or intent led to the injury, then they are responsible for any damages that result. Our legal team can evaluate your case and take action against them if necessary.

Liability is based on individual case details, but typically it may involve:

  • a negligent driver;
  • a negligent driver’s employer;
  • vehicle manufacturer;
  • local government that failed to keep the roads safe for pedestrians. 

Pedestrian accidents can have devastating consequences, as pedestrians lack the protective gear of motorcyclists or bicyclists:

  • head and brain injuries;
  • spinal cord damage;
  • facial trauma;
  • neck and back injuries;
  • broken bones;
  • internal damage.

Those who are victims of another person’s negligence should seek full compensation for their pain and suffering. Contact us today for further assistance.

Call 404-882-6810 today to discuss your case for free. No charge until you win! 

Creating a Demand for Injury Damages in Pedestrian Accidents

When you suffer an injury as a result of a pedestrian accident, it is important to work with your lawyer to prepare a damages demand that includes all the possible forms of compensation for which you may be eligible. This can include medical costs, loss of income, property damage, emotional distress, loss of enjoyment, and punitive damages.

  • Medical costs should cover doctor’s visits, surgical procedures, hospital stays, emergency transportation, and prescription medicine, as well as the cost of future medical expenses such as in-home care or physical therapy.
  • In terms of lost income, if you were forced to miss work because of the accident, you can include lost wages in the demand, along with any future missed wages or loss of potential earnings if your ability to advance your career has been compromised by the incident.
  • Property damage covers any personal items, such as smartphones or electronic devices, that were damaged in the accident. 
  • Emotional distress covers anxiety, depression, or post-traumatic stress disorder and should be calculated with input from experts. 
  • Loss of enjoyment applies when injuries limit activities previously important to you – such as a musician’s inability to play their instrument due to hand injuries. 
  • Punitive damages are intended to punish particularly egregious behaviour and must demonstrate deliberate disregard for safety in Minnesota state law.

Your damages demand will be used for settlement negotiations with the defendant’s insurance company and could be employed by a jury should legal action take place. With this in mind, it is essential that all possible forms of compensation are included in order for you to receive adequate recompense for your suffering.

How A Duluth Pedestrian Accident Lawyer Tackles Your Case?

Navigating a pedestrian accident claim can be an arduous process, and a qualified Duluth pedestrian accident lawyer can be invaluable in guiding you through the legal system. From the get-go, they will thoroughly investigate the circumstances of your incident, assess all evidence, and then provide advice on the most effective way to pursue your case.

Our lawyers will help secure statements from witnesses and medical documents that can link your injury to the mishap, as well as any police reports or CCTV footage that shows how another’s negligence caused your harm. They have experience assessing traffic laws and regulations to ensure your rights are upheld.

When it comes time to negotiate a settlement with an insurance company, they will concisely express why you deserve compensation and use applicable case law to make their argument more powerful. If court proceedings are required, your Duluth pedestrian lawyer will leverage their wealth of knowledge to build a compelling case for you.

A reputable professional like this gives peace of mind during an otherwise stressful situation – allowing you to focus on healing while they handle everything else.
