Are you looking for an attorney to help with a pedestrian accident in Gainesville? Many pedestrians have been injured due to someone else’s negligence, and often times the damages can be extensive.
Hiring an experienced Pedestrian Accident Attorney in Gainesville can give you the best chance of getting the compensation you deserve. If you’ve been injured in a pedestrian accident, don’t wait – contact us now to learn more about how we can help you fight for justice.
What Are The Main Causes Of Pedestrian Accidents in Gainesville?
All successful personal injury claims involve proving that someone else acted negligently and caused your injury. Through our investigation, we will define the cause of the accident, which can be:
- Speeding;
- Driving under the influence of alcohol;
- Failing to obey traffic signals or yield the right way;
- Poor judgment;
- Inexperience;
- Road rage;
- Improper lane changes;
- Poorly maintained roadways can also contribute to a crash if there are potholes, uneven pavement, or debris on the road.
We will identify the negligent party – whether it be a motorist or a government department – and pursue compensation from them on your behalf.
What Compensation Can You Seek After a Pedestrian Accident in Gainesville?
From our experience with Gainesville pedestrian assistance, we know how costly these accidents can be and how difficult it can be to get compensation. We can help you seek financial recovery for legal costs such as:
- Healthcare bills;
- Lost income;
- Pain and suffering;
- Property damage.
Additionally, if your injury affects your ability to earn an income in the future or results in scarring and disfigurement, we are here to help you recoup those losses too.
If someone close to you has passed away as a result of a pedestrian accident, then you might have grounds to file a wrongful death claim on their behalf. You could be eligible to get compensated for funeral expenses, medical costs, loss of consortium, loss of household benefits and income. You must act fast though – the statute of limitations allows only two years from the date of death to file the lawsuit.
How a Pedestrian Accident Attorney In Gainesville Can Help?
Trying to handle your pedestrian accident claim by yourself is a huge mistake. You may be eager to get the money to pay your bills, but insurance companies take advantage of those who are in vulnerable positions because of life-changing injuries and heavy losses. All too often, this leads to low settlements that leave victims with unpaid expenses.
At Henningsen Injury Attorneys P.C., we understand how to take on the insurance companies so you don’t have to. We will identify all liable parties, calculate your damages, and communicate directly with insurance companies while providing the necessary evidence they require. If we feel that current settlement offers are inadequate, we will negotiate for a higher amount or escalate the matter to civil court if necessary.
Many people believe that not using an attorney will save them money; however, more often than not having one of our experienced lawyers on your side will result in much higher compensation in the end – even after paying legal fees.
Experiencing a pedestrian accident can be an incredibly difficult and traumatic experience for the victim. Don’t go through it alone and call us today to discuss your case!

My Son was hit by at truck while attending college. Fortunately he was not critically injured, but he suffered physical and emotional trauma. Todd Henningsen took on our case and... read more was able to get a settlement that fairly compensated my son, not only the medical bills, but for the entire traumatic experience. Todd and his staff, particularly Carmen, patiently guided us through the entire process and we felt we were in good and capable hands from the beginning.

This is when you need to feel the utmost confidence in the people that are representing you, taking the stress out of an already difficult time. I highly recommend Henningsen Injury Attorneys, PC .

I was introduced to Henngsen Injury Attorneys in 2019 by a friend. I have been represented by this great firm twice in the past 3 years, each time I had... read more the privilege of having the representation of Paralegal Tamera Smith and Mr. Henningsen as my attorney . If I had to describe this team in four words it would be; tenacious, brilliant, strategic, and compassionate. This team helped me achieve the highest settlement in my life time. I pray that I won't endure another collision, however in the event that it happens again I will not hesitate to call Henningsen Injury Attorneys.

If I ever (god forbid) have any other personal injury or know someone who does I will refer them to this firm. I cannot thank Tammy, Carmen and Mr. Henningsen... read more enough for working tirelessly and being so patient through my case. The hospitals were not competent enough to process the claims despite hours of calls, escalations and restating the policy information, but Tammy was so patient with them and me. I always felt that I had a choice in the matter and I was always given the options on how to move forward. Carmen put my mind at ease when the accident initially happened and educated me on the initial process. Thereafter Tammy was my contact and Mr. Henningsen handled things so well that I had to go and meet Tammy in person (although I could have completed things remotely). I wanted to shake her hand and look her in the eye for helping me through this. I had just missed Mr. Henningsen, but I wanted to do the same with them. He is definitely reflected in his team and they are all wonderful!
