When Should File a Pedestrian Accident Claim?
If you have been involved in a pedestrian accident and received emergency medical treatment , it is crucial to speak with an attorney as soon as possible. The time frame to file a claim varies state by state and Pennsylvania’s statute of limitations is two years.
Furthermore, waiting too long to file your claim can result in lost or faded evidence and memories of the accident, ultimately hindering your chances of receiving fair compensation. Don’t take any chances when it comes to your well-being- prioritize contacting our lawyers as soon as possible so that we can assist you in navigating the claims process.
What Are Common Injuries for Pedestrians?
Pedestrian accidents can result in a wide range of injuries, both physical and emotional.
Common injuries can include:
- Brain injuries
- Spine Injuries
- Fractured or broken bones
- Loss of use of limbs
- Depression
- Anxiety
- Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
On top of these injuries, the financial burden can be equally as stress inducing, with medical bills and lost wages adding up quickly. That’s why it’s crucial to work with an experienced pedestrian accident lawyer. Our Pottsville attorneys understand the complexities of these cases and can help you navigate the legal process. With our help, you can focus on recovering from the accident.
How Do I Know I Have a Pedestrian Accident Claim?
In a pedestrian accident injury claim, proving the driver’s negligence is crucial to receiving compensation for damages. Negligence is often a factor in accidents, and it’s important to establish fault to determine next steps.
You may have a claim if the accident occurred from the following:
- The driver was distracted
- The driver was under the influence
- The driver was speeding
- The driver failed to stop at a red light or stop sign
- The driver was engaged in aggressive driving behavior
- The driver violated any other traffic laws
Contact our team at Metzger Wickersham to have your claim evaluated. By working with our Pottsville personal injury lawyers, we can help you gather evidence and build a strong case to prove the driver’s negligence to pursue the compensation you deserve.
