What we handle

Pedestrian accident situations we handle

  • Hit while crossing in a crosswalk

The offer

Don’t let the driver’s insurance tell you what your case is worth.

Pedestrian injuries are typically severe because there’s nothing between you and a multi-ton vehicle. Insurance adjusters know that and often respond with lowball early offers because they assume injured pedestrians need money fast. Don’t take their first number.

Settlements that reflect the harm

$1.5 Million
Pedestrian accident case

Our client was walking when she was hit by a company vehicle. Diagnosed with a concussion and released within five hours. Over the next three years she developed ongoing neck and back pain and eventually required a lumbar spine fusion. The insurance company’s initial offer was less than $50,000. They ended up paying 30 times their initial offer a few weeks before trial.

Past results do not guarantee a future outcome. Every case is different.

Straight answers

Still on the fence? Read this first.

I wasn’t in a crosswalk.

You may still have a case. California law protects pedestrians in many situations beyond marked crosswalks. Drivers still have a duty to drive safely and watch for people on foot.

It was a hit-and-run. I never got the driver’s information.

You may still recover, through your own uninsured motorist coverage if you have it. We’ll review your policy at no cost.

The driver’s insurance already offered me money.

Early offers in pedestrian cases are almost always a fraction of the real value, especially since pedestrian injuries often get worse over weeks and months. Don’t accept until a lawyer looks at it. Free review takes 10 minutes.

You’ve already paid enough. Let us handle the insurance company while you focus on healing.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

I was hit in a crosswalk. What’s my case worth?
Depends on the severity of your injuries, medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Pedestrian-in-crosswalk cases are usually strong because the driver’s duty to yield is clear. We give you an honest range during your free review.
I think I was partly at fault for not paying attention.
California comparative negligence rules mean you can still recover, with your award reduced by your share of fault. Talk to us before you assume your case is dead.
What do I do right after the accident?
Get medical care, even if you feel okay. Pedestrian injuries often show up days later. Report the accident to the police. Get the driver’s information. Take photos if you can. Then call us before you talk to any insurance adjuster.
How long do I have to file?
Two years from the date of the accident in most cases. Government-entity claims (a city or state vehicle, for example) have a much shorter deadline. Call us and we’ll confirm.
Who pays for medical bills while my case is pending?
Several options: your own health insurance, MedPay coverage on an auto policy, or a medical lien (you pay out of the settlement). We help set it up.
