We understand the gravity of these accidents and the devastating impact they can have on the lives of victims and their families. Our team of experienced attorneys is dedicated to providing compassionate support and superior legal representation to ensure victims receive the justice and compensation they deserve.

Understanding Pedestrian-Car Accidents

Pedestrian-car accidents are tragic incidents that can result in severe injuries or even fatalities. These accidents occur when a vehicle collides with a pedestrian, whether on a sidewalk, crosswalk, or road. Unfortunately, New Jersey has seen an alarming increase in such accidents in recent years, necessitating the need for legal intervention to protect the rights of the victims. At Berggren & Turturice, we specialize in handling these cases and are committed to helping our clients navigate the complexities of the legal system.

Causes of Pedestrian-Car Accidents

Understanding the causes of pedestrian-car accidents is crucial in preventing future incidents and establishing liability. Some common causes include:

  • Distracted Driving: Drivers who are texting, talking on the phone, or engaging in other distractions are more prone to causing accidents involving pedestrians.
  • Failure to Yield: Drivers who fail to yield to pedestrians in crosswalks or at intersections may be held liable in the event of an accident.
  • Speeding: Excessive speed reduces the time drivers have to react to pedestrians and increases the severity of accidents.
  • Drunk Driving: Intoxicated drivers have impaired judgment and reaction time, increasing the chances of a pedestrian-car accident.

Consequences of Pedestrian-Car Accidents

The consequences of pedestrian-car accidents can be devastating. Pedestrians involved in such accidents often suffer from:

  • Severe Injuries: Pedestrians are vulnerable to serious injuries, including broken bones, spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injuries, and internal organ damage.
  • Emotional Trauma: The psychological impact of being involved in a pedestrian-car accident can be long-lasting, leading to anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder.
  • Financial Burden: Extensive medical bills, loss of income, and ongoing rehabilitation costs can create significant financial strain on the victims and their families.

The Legal Process and Your Rights

When you or a loved one is involved in a pedestrian-car accident, it is essential to understand your rights and the legal process involved. At Berggren & Turturice, we are well-versed in New Jersey's laws pertinent to these accidents and can provide valuable insights and guidance throughout the legal proceedings.

Filing a Claim

The initial step in pursuing compensation is filing a personal injury claim. Our attorneys will assist you in gathering evidence, such as police reports, witness statements, and medical records, to build a strong case against the responsible party. We will negotiate with insurance companies and, if necessary, take your case to trial to ensure you receive fair compensation for your injuries, medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

Establishing Liability

Proving liability in pedestrian-car accidents can be complex. Our legal team will thoroughly investigate the accident, utilizing expert witness testimonies, accident reconstruction specialists, and cutting-edge technologies to determine the circumstances leading to the incident. We will diligently work to establish the negligence of the responsible party.
