Pursuing Compensation for Your Injuries

People injured in pedestrian accidents may file a lawsuit to recover compensation for their injuries. This can include compensation for medical expenses, future medical care, rehabilitation and therapy, lost wages, pain and suffering, mental trauma, and other damages. Our pedestrian accident lawyers in Queens seek to maximize compensation for our injured clients.

Proving Negligence in Pedestrian Accidents

A personal injury lawsuit allows victims of pedestrian accident to recover compensation for their damages. However, you must prove liability to receive compensation for your injuries. We can investigate your accident and get witness statements, police reports, photographs of the accident scene, and other documentation to help prove that another person’s negligence caused the accident.

Examples of negligence in pedestrian accidents include:

  • Speeding
  • Distracted driving
  • Driving under the influence
  • Texting or talking on a cell phone
  • Failing to yield right-of-way
  • Fatigued driving
  • Defective sidewalks/roadways

Like many states, New York uses the standard of shared fault in personal injury cases. This means that compensation could be reduced if the pedestrian is found to have any fault in the accident. In these cases, the compensation would be reduced by the percentage that the court finds you were responsible for the accident. For example, if the court determines that you were 25 percent at fault for the accident, your award would be reduced by 25 percent of your total recovery.
