Choosing a Pedestrian Accident Attorney

Answer:

We often get asked about selecting a lawyer in a pedestrian-automobile accident case. Our answer is this: Find someone with experience. Find a lawyer who practices virtually exclusively personally injury work.

We’ve practiced for over 38 years. Representing pedestrians is a big part of that. The rules are a little bit different. When a pedestrian gets hit by an automobile, the insurance interplays are different.

You need a lawyer who understands that so that he can navigate you through. Preferably, you want a lawyer who’s been around awhile and knows what the inside of a courtroom looks like, a lawyer who has tried cases, has litigated cases, and has the respect of the insurance companies, When the insurance companies see your lawyer’s name for example on paperwork, letters, court papers, they know that they are dealing with someone who’s been there before.
