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!

After I was rear ended , the insurance company started giving me the run around. I work full time and do not have the time to battle with insurance... read more to have my car repaired. I had seen Mr. Henningsen on Atlanta and Company (11Alive) and he seemed like a good person, not some flashy tv attorney. I contacted him , we had a meeting and he took care of everything else. Carmen (the para, I think) were great to work with , I would use him again and recommend him to friends.

I am so blessed to have found Henningsen Injury Attorneys! EXCELLENT and efficient representation! They assisted me in a car accident injury claim. Before finding them I was... read more using another attorney whose office had poor customer service and lacked professionalism and integrity. Due to this unacceptable behavior, I sought out another attorney and came across Henningsen and decided to give them a ring. Not only were Mr. Henningsen’s contingency fees more affordable than the first attorney, but every single staff member was extremely professional and compassionate – this was evident from my initial phone inquiry with their office when I spoke with Carmen. She talked to me for over 30 minutes and made sure to answer all questions to my satisfaction and even answered questions I didn’t think to ask! I know they have other clients, but she never made me feel like she was “too busy” for me; I felt like a priority. She also responded super quickly to all emails. While I was hurt, they sent someone to my house to handle the paperwork for me. They explained the process and followed up with me often to see how I was feeling, providing case updates along the way. I told Carmen several times, that they really were the silver lining in a horrible experience. You can tell they care. I hope to never be in another accident, but if I am, there is no way I would even consider another attorney. I rarely write reviews, but they’re very deserving of this. I want everyone to know, you’re in great hands with Henningsen Injury Attorneys. Highly recommended!

Excellent customer service. Very responsive. Great outcome. I was in a major car accident and while it could have been worse, I was not in the situation to deal with... read more insurance, hospital calls, etc. on my own. My experience with Henningsen was very positive. Carmen (my main contact) was very responsive, broke down complicated literature for me, and always had my best interest at heart. If I had anything relating to the accident - I just forwarded it her way and I knew it was taken care of. I would recommend them again and again!

I tried working with the guilty party's insurance company on my own and was getting nowhere fast. It was part frustration and in desperation that I reached out to Henningsen's... read more office. I'm sure glad I did because they took over and I stopped stressing about it. I wish I had called them earlier. I tell anyone that's been in an accident to call them. Even if it's just to ask questions. Lashanda was great to work with. Thank you to the Henningsen Injury Attorneys and team for getting our case settled and taking the stress out of it.
