Were You Injured in a Pedestrian Accident?
If you have been injured in a pedestrian accident that was caused by the careless or reckless actions of another, you may be entitled to seek compensation. Injured victims may file a South Carolina pedestrian accident claim, which is a civil action, requiring proof of another’s liability and evidence of accident-related expenses.
Each claim is unique, but most injured victims may recover compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and loss of future earning capacity. In addition, a South Carolina pedestrian accident claim may include costs associated with non-economic losses, such as physical pain and suffering, emotional distress, and mental anguish.
Injured victims should strongly consider retaining a South Carolina personal injury attorney, like those at the Hughey Law Firm, for representation and guidance throughout the claims process to increase their chances of maximizing recovery. The attorneys at the Hughey Law Firm understand that this can be a difficult time, and they are here to offer guidance.
Do not wait to call an attorney after being injured in a South Carolina pedestrian accident. The longer you wait, the more likely it will be that potentially important evidence will get lost and the memories of those involved (and witnesses) will begin to fade. As a pedestrian injured in an accident, you may be struggling with healing from your injuries while simultaneously balancing the legal process to pursue proper compensation for the damages you have faced. The sooner you contact an attorney, the sooner they can inform you of your legal options moving forward.
