New Jersey Pedestrian Accident Attorney
Representing pedestrians & bicyclist when drivers are negligent
Few people on the road are as vulnerable as joggers, walkers, bicyclists, and other pedestrians. In a moment's notice, a car or truck can strike the pedestrian, causing disabling injuries, coma, or death. If you or a loved one has been involved in a pedestrian accident with a motor vehicle, please do not hesitate to contact an experienced personal injury lawyer.
At the Law Office of Mallon and Tranger, our attorneys offer sincere compassion for our clients dealing with the aftermath of a catastrophic accident. When your family is overwhelmed with the anxiety, anger, or many other feelings following a tragic accident, you can trust that our lawyers will have your interests in mind.
Were You Hit by a Car? We Can Help.
Questions brought in many pedestrian and bike accident cases are - who had a right to be there and who is liable for damages? Were you on a sidewalk, in a bike lane, or in a crosswalk? Drivers have a responsibility to watch out for pedestrians. We use our skills to prove you had a right to be where you were when struck by the vehicle and pursue full compensation for your injuries in a claim against the negligent driver's insurance policy.
Uninsured/Underinsured Coverage in Pedestrian Injury Claims
In some cases, the negligent driver may not be known. This is the case in many hit-and-run pedestrian accident cases. If the driver is unknown, you may be able to recover compensation through an uninsured motorist (UM) claim against your own insurance policy.
The force of a vehicle crushing into a pedestrian can cause far greater injuries than almost any other type of accident. Victims of a pedestrian accident may suffer spinal cord injuries, loss of limbs (or amputation), traumatic brain injuries, or other debilitating injuries. When such significant injuries result, the damages frequently exceed the policy limits available through the negligent driver's insurance policy. In these cases, we can help you maximize your compensation by pursuing recovery from the negligent driver as well as your own underinsured (UIM) motorist coverage.
