Pedestrian and bicycle accidents often result in very serious or catastrophic injuries, in part because of the vulnerability of the person out in traffic without the protection of a vehicle body around him or her. If you were struck in a crosswalk, in a parking lot, on a sidewalk or when leaving your home on foot or on a bicycle and suffered serious injuries, you should contact an experienced lawyer. A personal injury attorney can help review your options for pursuing compensation or even for interacting with your own health insurance or auto insurance company, if necessary.
A traumatic brain injury, a back or neck injury, a spinal cord injury or an amputation will present many challenges and difficulties that you have most likely never had to cope with. Perhaps your family and friends are doing all they can to help you, but they and you may also realize that your medical and other needs are likely to continue for a long time.
Resist the temptation to talk at length with insurance claims adjusters or accept quick, low settlement offers. First, talk with a Michigan attorney who can advise you of your right to pursue compensation from any available resource, such as the car or truck driver who struck you while you were walking or bicycling.
