FACTORS THAT AFFECT SLIP AND FALL SETTLEMENTS
Several factors play key roles in determining settlement outcomes, and knowing what they are can give you some clarity as you navigate this process.
After someone is injured or killed in a pedestrian crash, action needs to be taken to ensure that the victim’s rights and options are safeguarded. While a lawsuit might be the furthest thing from your mind, it is often the best way to help a pedestrian crash victim.
After a serious pedestrian collision, an injured person incurs damages including the cost of current and future medical expenses, lost work and wages, pain and suffering, and loss of enjoyment of life. Families of people killed in pedestrian collisions also incur similar damages.
If you or a family member has been hurt or killed in a pedestrian accident caused by a negligent driver, you will need legal help to make sure your rights are upheld and get reimbursed for your damages. An experienced personal injury attorney will help by assessing your claim and working with an insurance company to get a financial settlement that will ensure your financial recovery. You can leave the legal worries in the hands of the professionals and focus your energy on getting your life back. Most lawyers offer a free initial consultation and charge no fees up front, so there is no cost to learn more about your rights and options.
