Pedestrian Accidents in California

Unfortunately, even though thousands of pedestrians are injured or killed every year in California, not all of them file personal injury or wrongful death lawsuits. It’s very important for injured victims or family members of a deceased victim to seek legal representation immediately following an accident so that an attorney can start gathering all of the facts and evidence about their case. An experienced attorney should be able to recover compensation for medical bills, loss of wages, emotional distress, and more.

Once the police arrest the driver responsible for this accident, the deceased victim’s family will have an easier time proving their negligence claim and receiving a large settlement amount to help them with funeral costs, loss of spousal support, and more.
