Pedestrian Accident

Even if you’re always careful when crossing the street, you can’t always account for other people’s driving. You are facing physical injuries that are difficult to navigate alone. My personal injury team can compassionately help you walk through the aftermath.

The largest factor in determining the value of your injuries, by far, is the quality of your legal representation. “Settlement mills” only have one goal – to get you to accept a settlement as quickly as possible so they can move on to the next case. I understand that you are a person going through an extremely traumatic time that needs help, not just another case number to settle.

I have over 33 years of practicing personal injury law, and I have the knowledge and resources needed to win you the compensation you deserve. My team and I will meet with you when and where it’s most convenient for you. You’re going through a lot, and we’ll help relieve the burden wherever we can by driving to you or facilitating a virtual meeting. My goal is to make this process as easy on you as possible so you can focus on what’s really important – your health.

In my practice, I work under a NO WIN, NO FEE policy so that you don’t have to pay until I win your case. The last thing you need right now, especially if you’re off work and facing medical bills, is to worry about legal fees.

I have fought and won many, many pedestrian injury cases and won. I’d be honored to be entrusted to help you in the same way.

Important Pedestrian Accident Tips

  • Record & preserve evidence of your injury and the accident

Evidence is the most important factor of determining liability. The other party’s insurance and legal team will do whatever they can to prove your fault.

  • Seek medical attention

Get medical treatment even if you’re not sure the extent of your injuries.

  • Document your expenses

Tally a complete list of your financial losses due to your injuries is the best way to help determine the settlement you deserve.

  • Do not talk to the other bus driver’s insurance company

After your claim is filed, their insurance will begin an investigation to determine liability. It is in their best interest to
put any percentage of fault they can on innocent victims. They will use whatever they can from your conversations to do so. Leave any contact with them to your experienced attorney.

  • Hire a personal injury lawyer

Insurance companies want a quick settlement and will likely offer you a low offer. They’re hoping you don’t hire an experienced personal injury attorney like myself. My reputation among insurance companies precedes me, and I will help ensure no stone is left unturned to get you the compensation you deserve.

  • Negotiate a settlement

Though difficult in some cases, it is important to remain patient and allow your lawyer to negotiate the best possible settlement. Insurance companies will do what they can to get you to quickly accept their first offer, even more so if you are experiencing financial hardships and need that money quickly. My experienced personal injury team, led by me, will fight for every dollar you deserve.

We take winning personally.

Let’s get you EVERYTHING you’re owed.

Steve, Emily and the team were a pleasure to work with. Their knowledge, professionalism and compassion were greatly appreciated during a challenging time in my life. I was very pleased with the outcome of my case and would recommend the team to anyone in need of legal services!
