Serious Injuries After an Accident
When a pedestrian is the victim in a motor vehicle accident, the resulting injuries can be serious. A pedestrian who is injured by a car will often sustain multiple injuries ranging from cuts and bruises to spinal cord and brain injuries. Many result in fatality. These types of accidents often require extensive medical attention and rehabilitation. Costs can quickly build up.
Insurance Settlement May Not Be Enough
Although you are covered by the insurance company of the driver, insurance companies notoriously do not provide a large enough settlement to cover the costs incurred by life challenging injuries such as those encountered after a pedestrian accident.
