Beverly Hills Pedestrian Accident Lawyer

Beverly Hills Pedestrian Accident Attorney

Before the average American could afford a car, pedestrians dominated the roadways. Even as motor vehicles became more commonplace in city streets, drivers still had to yield to pedestrians as they were vastly outnumbered. Fast forward more than a hundred years, and cars have literally taken over the roads and pushed pedestrians to the sidelines. However, this hasn’t entirely eliminated the possibility that the two will collide.

Bustling cities like Beverly Hills are known for their congested roadways and even busier sidewalks. The unfortunate reality is that, at some point, a pedestrian accident will occur. But what’s most important is the actions you take afterward.

The Beverly Hills pedestrian accident attorney at Setareh Law is well-versed in representing personal injury accident victims and can help you recover the compensation you’re entitled to. Being struck by a motor vehicle is a traumatic experience that can result in life-threatening injuries. Our team is here to inform you of your legal options and guide you through the claims process.

Causes of Pedestrian Accidents in Beverly Hills

A pedestrian accident occurs when a motor vehicle- a car, truck, or commercial vehicle- comes in contact with a pedestrian. The causes of these types of accidents are innumerable, but there are a few situations more likely to cause a pedestrian accident than others. These include:

Cell phone distractions
Failing to adhere to traffic signs
Disobeying traffic control devices
Busy intersections
Drug or alcohol intoxication
Reckless behaviors

Receiving the necessary medical attention immediately after your accident is most important. It’s not uncommon for individuals to feel fine in the moments after an accident, only for pain to arise in the days and weeks that follow. The next concern for many is “How do I recover compensation for my injuries?”

The natural answer is to file a lawsuit. But before any judgment can be issued, the court must first determine the liable party.

Liability in Beverly Hills Pedestrian Accidents

Pedestrians like to believe that the driver is always responsible for the accident, while drivers tend to believe the opposite. Truth is, both parties play a role in pedestrian accidents. However, your level of fault is what will determine how much you can legally recover.

California is a fault state, meaning the individual found liable for an accident occurring is required to cover the other party’s damages. However, there are instances when the fault is shared. In these instances, California’s Pure Comparative Fault doctrine is applied, which limits one’s recovery amount to the percentage they are found to be at fault. Some of the most common damages recovered are for:

Pain and suffering
Property damage
Emotional injuries
Lost wages
Medical bills
Loss of earning ability
Medical equipment

Ensure that you don’t miss out on the compensation you’re entitled to by law by securing legal counsel from a knowledgeable pedestrian accident attorney.
