Older adults and children are often the most at risk, and the use of alcohol or drugs by the vehicle driver or pedestrian is involved in almost 50% of crashes that result in death.\n\nEach case is unique, and drivers or pedestrians may be held responsible for causing a collision. Common causes of drivers hitting pedestrians include:\n\nSpeeding\nRunning red lights or stop signs\nDriving under the influence of alcohol or drugs\nDistracted driving, such as texting while behind the wheel\nFailure to yield to pedestrians at crosswalks\nMaking illegal turns or failing to signal\nVehicle malfunction\nIn some cases, a pedestrian may cause an accident in New Jersey due to:\n\nJaywalking\nIntoxication\nWalking on the road instead of a sidewalk\nWalking on busy, high-speed roads or highways\nIn addition, lack of pedestrian signals, insufficient lighting, or poor roadway design can contribute to accidents.

If you\u2019ve lost a loved one in an accident, we can determine whether a wrongful death claim may be an option for recovering compensation.\n\nWhat are the Common Injuries Sustained in Pedestrian Accidents?\nUnlike motorists, pedestrians don\u2019t have the protection of a vehicle surrounding them.

Call 911 and make sure to exchange contact information with all involved parties. Even if you think you\u2019re fine, symptoms of serious injuries such as internal bleeding may not appear right away, so seek medical attention as soon as possible.\n\nDo not admit fault or speak to insurers or anyone else about the accident before contacting a pedestrian accident lawyer. Anything you say may be used against you later. Our personal injury lawyers will handle all communications and negotiations with insurers.\n\nHow Much Time Do I Have to File a Pedestrian Accident Lawsuit in New Jersey?\n\nTypically, you have two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit in New Jersey. If you miss the two-year statute of limitations, you may lose your right to recover compensation. Memories fade and valuable evidence can be lost, so it\u2019s important to take action as soon as possible.\n\nWhat If the Driver Was Uninsured or Fled the Scene of the Accident?\n\nEven if the negligent party can\u2019t be identified or is uninsured, you may still be able to recover compensation through your own uninsured motorist coverage or New Jersey\u2019s Unsatisfied Claim and Judgment Fund (UCJF). Our pedestrian accident attorneys can advise you of your options.\n\nHow Much Does a Pedestrian Accident Lawyer Cost in New Jersey?\n\nWe believe everyone deserves quality legal representation. Paul and his team of personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis.
