The evidence needed to prove liability will depend on the specific cause of your accident. Depending on the facts of your case, you may have grounds for a claim against the driver who hit you, the company that employs the driver who hit you, a government entity, or another party.
The injuries sustained in pedestrian accidents can be catastrophic, and the cost of medical care and lost income can be exorbitant. To reduce their liability, the insurance company or defendant may try to coerce you into providing a recorded statement that can be used to dispute liability or your damages. They might review your social media profiles for posts that can be used against you. Also, important evidence that could be used to prove your claim, such as surveillance footage, might be erased.
If a pedestrian accident has left you unable to work with steep medical bills, it is important that you do everything in your power to give your claim the best chance of success. The personal injury attorneys at Castro Legal Group can help you navigate the claims process and pursue justice and the maximum compensation from all liable parties.
