A pedestrian accident is one in which someone on foot (walking or running) is hit by a car, truck, motorcycle, or even a scooter. The much heavier and faster-moving vehicle can cause major injuries or death as well as financial strain on the victim and their family. If this is the situation you are in, you need to get in touch with a pedestrian accident lawyer Los Angeles immediately.

Steps to Take Following A Los Angeles Pedestrian Accident

  1. See a doctor: You will probably have to see many doctors multiple times depending on the nature and scope of your injuries but it should be the first and ongoing step in the process. Seeing a doctor not only helps you feel better sooner it also helps make for a stronger personal injury case. A doctor’s diagnosis is the cornerstone of your case and without it, it comes off as not having very big injuries. Full diagnosis and treatment plan also help forecast out just how much the injury is going to cost you when it comes to your physical and emotional recovery and we can get you money for years to come if that is what you need.
  2. Take Notes: What do you remember about the accident and how do you feel now? Your notes on the accident are an important piece of evidence that we use to show the total impact the accident has had on your life, limit your liability (if there is any) in the accident, and much more. Memories are always best fresh so take the time now to write down any and all details you remember. In California pain and suffering is something that individuals can recover from and your notes about the impact of the accident inform a lot of this part of financial compensation you do not want to miss out on.
