Injury Lawyer New JerseyPursuing Claims for Pedestrian Accidents

If you've been hit by a car, you may be suffering from serious physical injuries, and these injuries may even be keeping you from going to work. Drivers have a responsibility to avoid causing pedestrian accidents, and you have a right to hold a negligent driver accountable.

At the Law Offices of Anthony Carbone, P.C., we help pedestrians recover the compensation they deserve after accidents. Contact us to schedule a free initial consultation at our offices in Jersey City, New Jersey.

Dealing with Insurance Companies
If you know the identity of the driver who hit you, we will pursue compensation from that driver's insurance company. Insurance companies have many tricks that they use to avoid paying out on claims for all types of car accidents, including car-pedestrian accidents. We do not recommend that you attempt to file a claim yourself, and we definitely recommend that you not sign anything before speaking to a lawyer.

Pedestrian Accidents and Premises Liability
Like slip and fall accidents, pedestrian accidents can sometimes be caused by poorly designed or maintained properties. If a parking lot or driveway has a blind access that does not warn drivers or pedestrians, it can increase the likelihood of a pedestrian accident. If a sidewalk is icy or snow-covered, it may force you to walk in the road, increasing the likelihood you will be hit by a car. And if a parking lot or driveway is not cleared properly, it can cause cars to lose control and strike you.

At the Law Offices of Anthony Carbone, P.C., we charge no fees to our pedestrian accident and other personal injury clients unless and until we win compensation for your injuries.

Getting Your Medical Expenses Paid
If you have neither car insurance nor medical insurance, you may be wondering how to pay for the important medical attention you need after your medical accident. Thankfully, New Jersey has a fund to cover medical costs for people injured in car accidents who have no other source of medical coverage.

Hit and Run
If you were injured by a hit-and-run driver, this state fund may also offer you certain other compensation, such as pain and suffering.

In order to receive benefits from the state fund, you must file a claim within a specific time period and fill out certain paperwork. Contact attorney Anthony Carbone to begin this process right away.
