If you were the victim of a pedestrian accident involving a driver who was working at the time, your personal injury claim may be filed against the driver, the driver’s company or both depending on a number of factors. If you or a loved one has been injured in an accident, contact 844 See Mike for a free consultation.

Negligence is an essential element of personal injury claims, including for pedestrian accidents, and you, as the plaintiff, must prove that the driver or his/her company was negligent and directly responsible for the accident and your injuries.

Liability may fall solely on the driver if his/her negligence – such as intoxicated driving or disobeyal of traffic laws – caused the accident, while it may fall on the driver’s company if the accident resulted from a defect in the vehicle that should have been identified and/or addressed at an earlier time. In other cases, both parties may be liable for the accident given specific circumstances, so the help of an experienced personal injury attorney is essential to ensure that your claim is against the appropriate party and you can be fully compensated for your injuries.
