Minnesota Pedestrian Accidents Attorney / Lawyer

 

Even when pedestrians are careful and obey the rules of the road, they are often struck by drivers. These accidents are almost always caused by inattentive, speedy, careless, distracted or drunk drivers (i.e., it is rarely the pedestrians fault that a collision has occurred). Children are especially difficult to see and therefore vulnerable to these accidents.

The rules of the road typically grant the pedestrian the right-of-way. Every year many pedestrians are involved in motor vehicle accidents through no fault of their own. In 2007, there were 957 crashes in the U.S. where a pedestrian was killed or injured. In 2008, 860 pedestrians were killed or injured. Over 50% of these accidents were caused by cars driving straight through a crosswalk.

When a person is hit by a car/truck, the resulting injuries are devastating and often lead to permanent, crippling injuries or death. Because of these horrific injuries, insurance companies are very reluctant to accept that their drivers are at fault. They and their defense attorneys often defend these cases by blaming the pedestrian. You need an attorney experienced with these tactics to fight the insurance companies – you need Bob Lange.

Insurance companies, with their large number of claims adjusters and their defense attorneys, will do everything they can to keep you from obtaining justice and reasonable compensation for your injuries. Adjusters and defense attorneys are hired to protect the insurance company’s pocketbook, not yours. Do not give them a statement. You can co-operate without giving a statement. You could make a mistake telling your side of the story. Get plenty of pictures as soon as possible. Pictures reveal what happened.
