What Pedestrian Accident Victims Need to Know

A pedestrian accident can happen at a moment's notice. When a pedestrian is struck by a vehicle, the aftermath can be serious. If you or a loved one has been injured in a pedestrian accident, continue reading.

‍

Safety first. First, get any injured people to a place of safety. If the person cannot be moved, set up barriers to block traffic.

‍

Call 911. It is imperative that the police are called immediately after a pedestrian accident. They will need to come take a detailed report and interview any witnesses.

‍

Seek medical attention. Many times, accident victims are in shock and do not feel the full impact of their injuries. The last thing they want to do is go to the ER, so they head home to rest. This is unwise because the victim may be suffering from internal or external injury that only a medical professional with the appropriate medical equipment will be able to diagnose.

‍

Exchange contact information. It is important that the driver and pedestrian exchange name, phone number, and insurance information.

‍

Find a lawyer. Many accident victims are not aware that the best injury attorneys work on a contingency basis, meaning you only pay if they win. If you have been injured in a pedestrian accident, you should reach out to an experienced lawyer immediately. The longer you delay, the more challenging it can be to prove your case and therefore recover the financial compensation your injuries deserve.

We Stand Up To Greedy Insurance Companies

Get more compensation from your slip and fall injury with expert legal representation

With over 40 years of experience, we have handled many slip and fall cases. I can provide you with the caliber of legal services that is normally available only to large companies, due to my experience in large-scale litigation that has resulted in awards of millions of dollars on many occasions. In 2014, Michael Ghozland was named “Street Fighter of the Year” by Consumer Attorneys of California in 2014. Because of my outstanding trial record, winning your case will probably mean obtaining a private settlement, with no need to ever step into a courtroom. Insurance companies know my reputation, and most of them would rather settle than face me in a slip and fall lawsuit.

“We have made it our mission to provide our clients with the type of legal representation typically delivered to large corporate and institutional clients. Mr. Ghozland recognizes that you deserve the best employment & personal injury lawyer in Los Angeles.”
