Elevated traffic levels and driving speeds coupled with increased interest in walking, jogging, rollerblading, skateboarding and other similar activities have increased the number of pedestrians who are seriously injured in accidents involving cars and trucks. Pedestrians who are hit by cars and trucks often suffer head and brain injuries, spinal cord injuries and paraplegia. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, pedestrian fatalities account for nearly 10 percent of all deaths that resulted from motor vehicle accidents.
These injuries often have significant long-term physical, financial and emotional consequences for injury victims and their families. Our attorneys work closely with clients affected by any type of pedestrian accident, including hit-and-runs. We regularly employ medical experts and rehabilitation experts to help us demonstrate the effects pedestrian accident injuries can have on victims and families.
Resolving Connecticut Pedestrian Accidents
We understand that most people injured in Connecticut pedestrian accidents just want to recover fair compensation for their injuries, so they can move forward with their lives. Our attorneys provide a detailed assessment of our clients’ cases and counsel them on what to expect as we move forward. We strive to resolve pedestrian accident cases through negotiated settlements, minimizing the stress and uncertainty of a trial. However, when a fair settlement cannot be negotiated, we have the skill and dedication necessary to successfully argue pedestrian accident cases in court.
When Pedestrians Receive Tickets After Getting Hit By Cars
In Connecticut, pedestrians are often ticketed for traffic accidents they didn’t cause. This adds insult to injury for accident victims who are recovering from painful and often permanent injuries.
If you received a ticket after getting hit by a vehicle, it will likely have no bearing on the outcome of your personal injury case. In many situations, the ticket is inadmissible in the civil proceedings.
