Pedestrian Accidents & Injuries

Motor vehicle drivers and pedestrians aren’t the only victims of car accidents in the United States. Traffic accidents also affect several pedestrians each year, causing them to sustain serious injuries. These may require long-term care and/or expensive medical treatment, adding to the victims’ distress. This is why it’s imperative to hire a pedestrian accident lawyer at the earliest and strengthen your chances of getting a just settlement.

Pedestrian accidents usually occur because of the motorists’ negligence. Speeding, distracted driving, dangerous maneuvering, poor navigation, and driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol may all lead to serious accidents involving pedestrians. Consequently, pedestrians may sustain various types of injuries, such as brain and spinal cord injuries, burns, fractures, lacerations, and other traumatic injuries that can compromise their health. Depending on the severity of the injury, victims may also require lifelong medication and lifestyle adjustments.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Most personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they take a percentage of the amount recovered from the defendant. The percentage typically ranges from 33% to 40%, but we have seen some attorneys negotiate contingency agreements as high as 60%.

Yes, you can negotiate a settlement without a personal injury lawyer. However, it is highly recommended that you seek legal advice before attempting to negotiate a settlement on your own. A personal injury lawyer can provide you with the legal knowledge and experience necessary to ensure that your rights are fully protected and that you receive the maximum amount of compensation possible.

When choosing a personal injury lawyer, it is important to consider the lawyer’s experience, reputation, and track record. You should also make sure that the lawyer is knowledgeable about the area of law relevant to your case. Additionally, you should feel comfortable communicating with the lawyer and confident that they will be able to handle your case effectively. At The Bourassa Law Group, you will have attorneys with over 30 years of experience working for the defense and insurance companies taking those skills and fighting for you.

The questions you should ask may vary depending on your claim, but in general, they include the following:

  1. How long have you been practicing personal injury law?
  2. What is your success rate in personal injury cases?
  3. How will my case be handled and what is the estimated timeline?
  4. What types of damages am I entitled to receive?
  5. Are there any potential risks or downsides to pursuing a personal injury claim?
  6. Do you have any references from past clients I can contact?
  7. How much do you charge for your services, and what payment options are available?

The amount of money a personal injury lawyer gets from a settlement depends on the type of fee arrangement that has been agreed upon between the lawyer and the client. Generally, personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only get paid if they win or settle the case. The percentage typically ranges from 33% to 40%, but we have seen some attorneys negotiate contingency agreements as high as 60%.
