Pedestrian Accident FAQs
If you were hit while walking, you deserve clear answers—no legal jargon, just real help.
What should I do after a pedestrian accident?
Call 911 immediately, even if injuries seem minor. Get medical attention and collect as much evidence as possible, including witness names and scene photos. Avoid giving statements to insurers without speaking to a lawyer, as they may try to shift blame onto you.
What if I was partly at fault for the accident?
You can still recover compensation under Florida’s comparative negligence rule, as long as you were not primarily responsible. Your recovery may be reduced based on your level of fault. We’ll help clarify how the rules apply to your specific case.
Who pays for my injuries if I’m hit as a pedestrian?
Typically, the at-fault driver’s insurance should cover your medical bills, lost wages & related damages. If they lack sufficient coverage, we explore other options like your own PIP coverage or uninsured motorist policies to make sure you aren’t left without help.
How long do I have to file a pedestrian injury claim?
In Florida, you generally have two years to file a personal injury claim after being struck. However, evidence disappears quickly—especially video footage. It’s critical to act fast to strengthen your case and preserve your rights.
What compensation can I claim after a pedestrian accident?
You may be entitled to coverage for immediate medical costs, lost wages, long-term rehabilitation, pain & suffering, and any permanent disability or disfigurement. We’ll build a case that seeks full, fair compensation for everything you’ve endured.
