If you get in a car crash, a lot of safety systems will help protect you. An airbag will catch you if you get flung forward or sideways. The seatbelt will keep you in your seat. Crumple zones will keep the other car from reaching you. None of these apply if you’re a pedestrian victim. Our personal injury lawyers in Chula Vista have seen how devastating these crashes can be.

Simmrin Law Group has helped accident victims across Southern California win big after pedestrian accidents.

Compensation You Could Receive From Your Case
When you make an insurance claim or a lawsuit, you must present a case that shows how you were injured and how much you need to cover your costs. Most people don’t know how much their cases are truly worth, or know all the things they can claim as damages. That’s one reason why hiring a lawyer can get you so much more money.
Some common damages in pedestrian accident cases include:
- All medical bills related to the injury, including specialist visits, transportation, medical gear, even home renovations to accommodate a permanent injury.
- Lost wages and lost potential income if you cannot return to work in the same position
- Property damage claims for anything you were carrying at the time.
- Pain and suffering, loss of consortium, and other non-economic damages
- Damages for wrongful death claims like funeral expenses
Calculating the full value of your costs is a vital part of your case. If you don’t know how much your case is worth, you won’t know if the insurance company is offering a fair deal. So find out by contacting Simmrin Law Group. We’ll take care of the insurers while you take care of your health.

Pedestrian Accident Cases Are Often Worth More
Many things affect the value of a personal injury claim. One of the most basic is the extent of your injuries. If you have injuries that will take longer to heal, more severe, or permanent, then they will be more expensive to treat. Hence, we can fight for more money.
Pedestrian accidents rarely leave victims without some sort of injury. The most fortunate may only get bruises and scrapes, but even these can put you out of work for a while and cost you money you didn’t have to pay. More likely, you’re facing much more than this and need to know your legal options.
Reach out to our pedestrian accident lawyers in Chula Vista to make sure you’re getting the most from your accident. Don’t leave it up to the insurance companies to decide. You won’t get a fair deal if you face them alone. Have our legal team do the talking instead.

I Was Taken to the Hospital. What Should I Do?
The paramedics may have taken you to the hospital after your accident before you had any clue what happened. All you know is that you’re in pain and you’ve got medical bills coming. It is okay to contact a personal injury lawyer while you’re in the hospital. We can come to you or hold a video teleconference.
Our investigation team will ask you what you know and get to work identifying the driver and their insurer. The hospital and the police may already have information that can help us with that and give us a place to start our investigation.
Don’t despair if you don’t know who hit you or if the police cannot find the driver. You may still have options for compensation. Your immediate priority is to recover from your injuries. Let a skilled Chula Vista pedestrian accident lawyer from our firm take care of getting justice for you by calling us for a free consultation.
