Pedestrian accidents can be extremely harmful, not just physically, but financially and emotionally as well. A serious accident could be extremely traumatizing, resulting in anxiety, insomnia, PTSD, and other similar issues. Not only are these various conditions difficult to cope with, but they can also be expensive to treat. As a result, pedestrian accident survivors may face costly medical bills, as well as therapy sessions, medication expenses, and loss of work. However, paying for these damages should not fall to the injured party—the liable person(s) should pay for the resulting damages.
If you lost a loved one in a fatal pedestrian accident, you may also be left with the burden of funeral and burial expenses, the loss of their income, as well as their loss of companionship. Seeking legal recompense won’t take away the pain of your loss, but it can help you find justice and peace as you and your family move forward.
