Pedestrian accidents happen every day all across the United States, but unfortunately, most commonly result in fatalities in the state of California. This is a severe problem that our state faces every day. Collisions between pedestrians and automobiles will nearly always be devastating for the pedestrian, which is why it is wise to hire a pedestrian accident injury attorney immediately after any injury resulting from an accident.
Pedestrians are always afforded the right of way, which means that the driver of the vehicle is almost always at fault. In the state of California, drivers are considered to have the "last clear chance" to prevent an accident - which is why it is not terribly difficult to prove negligence in a pedestrian case. Precluding extremely reckless behavior on the part of the pedestrian and/or extreme weather conditions, the driver will be the negligent party. The real challenge comes from getting what you deserve from the insurance company.
If you are the victim of a pedestrian accident, you are entitled to a settlement that relieves financial stress (either from medical bills, missed work, or both), and just compensation if your accident results in a permanent disability. When an Law Offices of Andrew Zeytuntsyan attorney represents you, they will take into consideration the medical incident immediately following your accident, along with your quality of life both before and after the injury. Based on that information, we will fight for the compensation you deserve, which is likely significantly higher than the settlement first offered to you.
