Around 90 to 95 percent of all personal injury cases, including pedestrian accident claims, end in settlements. Usually, a negotiated settlement is the ideal resolution to any pedestrian accident claim. This keeps the case from going to court, which can take much more time and incur additional expenses for both parties. Settling also gives both parties more control over the outcome of the case. It also keeps the injured party from having to testify in court, which can be nerve-wracking. Some cases even settle in the middle of a trial or shortly before the jury reaches a verdict. We believe in doing what the client desires, as this is your case. It’s our job to promptly inform you of any settlement offers you receive and provide you with sound legal advice as to whether or not it’s a fair settlement for your specific claim. Whether you take our advice or not is up to you. You are in the driver’s seat and can decide if you want to settle your claim or litigate it. Across our more than two decades of experience representing clients like yourself, our attorneys are skilled negotiators who will fight for your rights. But they aren’t afraid to take your claim to court if that’s what it takes to get fair compensation on your behalf. While we can’t predict whether your claim will settle or not, we can assure you that we are here to represent your desires and inform you along the way.
