Oftentimes, the drivers of cars, trucks and other vehicles fail to see bicycles and pedestrians who are sharing the road with them. While the rules of the road protect bicyclists and pedestrians, the negligence of drivers can result in accidents with serious injuries. If you have been hit while walking, jogging, running or riding your bike, you may be entitled to compensation following an accident in New Jersey.
At Hendrickson & Edelstein, Attorneys at Law, our firm provides legal representation to injured pedestrians and bicyclists in Lakewood, Barnegat, Ocean County, Monmouth County and throughout New Jersey.
Each of our lawyers has more than 35 years of personal injury experience, and during that time, we have recovered significant verdicts and settlements for clients in a wide range of accident claims, including pedestrian and bicycle accidents. Contact us online today.
Your Legal Rights After Being Hit by a Car
One of the most important factors after a bicycle or pedestrian accident is understanding how to receive compensation for your medical bills, lost wages and other costs.
If the driver who hit you drove off or does not have insurance, you still have legal remedies under the law. If you own a car, your own car insurance can pay for your medical bills. There is a state fund in New Jersey for pedestrians who do not have insurance.
We will thoroughly review the circumstances of your auto accident and pursue the maximum compensation available from the liable parties. If you would like more information regarding our accident representation, speak with one of our attorneys and get the answers you deserve.
