Morgan Hill Pedestrian Accident Lawyer

Morgan Hill Pedestrian Accident Lawyer

Despite how many traffic laws there are to protect pedestrians from motor vehicles, accidents still happen. Negligent drivers can ignore certain laws, putting pedestrians in danger. Unlike car accidents, there’s nothing to protect a person crossing the street from the steel might of a car or truck; a moment of recklessness or negligence can place someone in the hospital, even if the driver wasn’t going too fast. If you or a loved one is currently experiencing this aftermath, call Mitchell & Danoff Law Firm to speak with our Morgan Hill, CA pedestrian accident lawyer!

Morgan Hill, CA Pedestrian Accident Lawyer

The law is very clear: when you’re involved in an accident that’s no fault of your own, then the other party should be held liable, meaning they should pay for any damages. However, just because the law is clear doesn’t mean that such an outcome is guaranteed. For example, insurance adjusters are often trained to deny insurance claims, even if it’s clear who’s at fault. Insurance adjusters might argue that the accident was your fault or that you had a preexisting medical condition.

Trying to argue with the insurance companies on your own is no easy task. There are too many situations where victims and their families give up simply because they’re unable to make any headway. Worst yet, insurance companies may use tactics, such as confusing victims into unknowingly admitting fault or accepting a lower settlement with the belief that they’re unable to get a higher amount.

Working with one of our Morgan Hill pedestrian accident lawyers can help you avoid such heartache. Insurance companies are far more reasonable when they know there’s an attorney on the other end. They’re more likely to negotiate and offer a reasonable settlement because they know that if they don’t, then legal pressure can be applied, resulting in more money on their end and a possible stain on their reputation.

By hiring a skilled personal injury attorney to research your case and represent you in court, your chances of success improve drastically.

  • How long will my personal injury case take to resolve?

    This number can vary from one case to another, depending on the details of your situation. A lawsuit can take anywhere from several months to several years to settle.

  • What is the average settlement amount for a personal injury claim?

    The average compensation amount for a personal injury case is anywhere from $3,000 to $75,000, depending on what type of damages you are pursuing.

  • Does California put damage caps on claims for personal injury cases?

    No, only Medical Malpractices cases have a cap.

The maximum amount that may be recovered is $250,000. All other Personal Injury cases are not subject to any cap.
