Most clients injured as pedestrians wonder why they might need a lawyer when they, as pedestrians, clearly had the right of way. The insurance company might recognize their liability right away—and they might even offer you a tempting settlement quickly. A swift settlement award from an insurance company almost never covers the full amount of compensation that you are entitled to receive. Your fair compensation should include compensation for:
Contrary to popular belief, the insurance company is not there to protect your best interests—the insurance company’s primary goal is actually to minimize the amount of your settlement.

Yes, you may still have a case. While drivers do have a duty to watch for pedestrians and modify driving to avoid a pedestrian accident, they are not always fully responsible. That does not eliminate your right to fight for fair compensation. In these situations, New Jersey comparative negligence rules may apply to limit the amount that the pedestrian can recover. Your compensation award may be reduced by the percentage of fault assigned to your actions. The advice of a skilled lawyer is particularly necessary in these cases.
Our lawyers will analyze the entire set of facts to build the strongest argument in your favor. This may include:
– Analyzing your medical records and accident report to gather evidence about what happened – Working with accident reconstruction experts to paint a more clear picture of how the accident happened – Locating any witnesses who may be able to support your claim – Locating any video surveillance that may be available – Determining whether the driver was using drugs or alcohol that may have impaired their ability to drive safely
