Pedestrian Accident Winnebago County Lawyers
Winnebago County Pedestrian Accident Attorneys
Though everyone has preferences when it comes to getting around, there is one mode of transportation we all share: At some point during the day, you are a pedestrian. Unfortunately, this does not mean you are safer as compared to driving in traffic. According to statistics compiled by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, a pedestrian is killed every two hours in traffic-related crashes. Another will suffer injuries every seven minutes. Victims do have rights regarding compensation, but Illinois law on pedestrian accidents is complex.
At the Law Office of Brassfield & Krueger, Ltd., our pedestrian accident attorneys are committed to ensuring you receive the compensation you deserve after sustaining injuries due to driver negligence. We have been representing victims in Winnebago County and throughout Northern Illinois for decades, so our lawyers have the experience and knowledge necessary to fight for your rights in a pedestrian accident case.
Representing Victims of Illinois Pedestrian Accidents
As the victim of a pedestrian accident, you stand a greater risk of suffering severe, life-threatening injuries as compared to collisions involving vehicles. You are not protected by the metal shell of a car or truck, and are not wearing a helmet as you would if you were riding a bicycle or motorcycle. Due to these vulnerabilities, certain types of injuries are common in pedestrian incidents, including:
- Head injuries, including traumatic brain injury (TBI) and concussion;
- Spinal cord, neck, and back injuries;
- Bone fractures;
- Damage to internal organs;
- Amputation and other injuries to extremities;
- Lacerations, scrapes, and bruises; and,
- Many other bodily injuries
Under the circumstances, you may be entitled to recover compensation from the motorist who is responsible for causing the pedestrian accident. As in most traffic-related crashes, you will likely first pursue the negligence driver’s insurance company for compensation. If you are unable to reach a settlement, it may be necessary to file a lawsuit to obtain the recovery you are entitled to under Illinois law.
Our attorneys at Brassfield & Krueger, Ltd. will assist you with the entire claims process. We are aggressive in seeking compensation from the insurance company, but we will fight for your rights in court if unable to reach an agreement.
Recover Compensation for Your Losses
Once we prove that you are entitled to compensation after a pedestrian accident, you can recover various types of monetary damages, including:
- Medical expenses, such as the costs for emergency care, surgery, physical therapy, and related treatment;
- Lost income, if you were out of work after the incident;
- Pain and suffering;
- Losses that impact your personal relationships; and,
- Other damages depending on the details of your case.
