Pedestrians in Idaho and nationwide are at a higher risk of injury during collisions. Drivers should stay alert and ensure they do their part to promote safety. Each person on the road has different rights and responsibilities. One overlapping theme is the right to use the road safely. When an accident occurs, it is essential that you know what you should do if you have suffered any losses. You must call the top pedestrian accident lawyer Idaho has to offer. Andrew Injury Law is here to help.
Many people’s first question after an accident is how did it happen? Many reasons can lead to collisions in Idaho. They can also occur in many places. Here are five factors that can impact a pedestrian accident in Idaho:
This is not a complete list, as there are many other ways that drivers can be negligent and cause a crash. If you are injured in a collision, speak to our Idaho pedestrian accident lawyer immediately.
You might assume the answer is obvious since a driver struck you. But it is rarely that simple. When the driver is inattentive or reckless, they are negligent. Sometimes they can share liability with another party. If no one else contributed to the crash, the claim would be straightforward for the most part.
When someone else contributes to the pedestrian accident, liability becomes more complex. Due to Idaho’s comparative fault laws, liability is divided proportionally. Suppose you were jaywalking and a driver was speeding. You will share the fault, but the driver will bear a higher percentage. You can recover compensation, but your fault percentage will reduce it.
The primary recovery you will seek is accident-related expenses. These are usually tied to the severity of your injuries. They will also have receipts and documentation that show these expenses. Some examples include;
You will likely have additional expenses not listed here. On top of your daily expenses, you will also have these new expenses to worry about. The financial strain can push some people to take low settlement offers. You lose your right to pursue additional compensation when you accept an offer. Before accepting a settlement, you must wait until you complete your medical treatment and return to work and daily activities.
Pedestrian accidents are unpredictable, often leading to serious injury. The reason behind their severity is because of the size difference. Even at low speeds, these accidents can be deadly. Pedestrians can suffer injuries from the initial impact and being thrown several feet away. Common pedestrian injuries in Idaho include:
The severity of these injuries can lead to a lifetime of pain and suffering. The top pedestrian injury lawyer Idaho has to offer knows how difficult it is to recover from these crashes. We will work with medical experts to get you the care you need. We will maximize your claim in any way we can. Contact Andrew Injury Law for a case review today.
Recovery encompasses many different areas. You must recover physically, financially, and legally. To recover physically, you must seek medical attention. The sooner you get a medical evaluation, the sooner you can start treatment and return to your daily life. Waiting to get medical attention can complicate your case. The insurance adjusters can argue that this delay is because you suffered an injury in another way or your injuries were not severe.
Recovering financially and legally go hand in hand. To get financial compensation, you must hold negligent parties legally accountable. You must hire a Pedestrian Accident Lawyer in Idaho to handle the legal aspect of the case. Our pedestrian injury lawyers in Idaho will handle the claims process and advise you on any offers. Andrew Injury Law is ready to go to trial if necessary.
