Why You Need Pedestrian Accident Attorneys in Michigan?

A pedestrian has little protection when struck by a moving vehicle. Even a minor collision can leave you with serious injuries, a long recovery, and significant financial strain. Fault may be disputed by the driver, an employer, or another party, so acting quickly helps preserve evidence and strengthen your claim.

  • Ged Lawyers represents injured pedestrians and families throughout Michigan. 
  • We investigate crashes involving distracted driving, failure to yield, speeding, and hit-and-run accidents. 
  • Our team gathers police reports, medical records, witness statements, and surveillance footage. 
  • We pursue compensation for medical care, lost income, pain and suffering, and future damages.

Types of Pedestrian Accident Cases We Handle

Crosswalk Accidents

Claims involving pedestrians struck while crossing at marked crosswalks, intersections, or pedestrian signals.

Cases involving turning vehicles, red lights, stop signs, and drivers who fail to yield.

Claims for pedestrians hit in store lots, garages, driveways, and other low-speed traffic areas.

Cases involving children, parents, buses, distracted drivers, or unsafe driving near schools.

Legal help when the driver leaves the scene after striking a pedestrian.

Claims involving cars, trucks, SUVs, rideshares, delivery vehicles, or other vehicles striking a pedestrian.

Common Pedestrian Accident Injuries We Handle

Head And Brain Injuries

Concussions and brain trauma may affect memory, balance, focus, mood, and daily function. 

Disc injuries, nerve pain, and spinal symptoms often require detailed medical proof. 

Fractures may involve emergency care, surgery, therapy, missed work, and lasting restrictions. 

Internal bleeding or organ damage may require urgent treatment and careful documentation. 

Sprains, strains, torn ligaments, and muscle injuries can affect movement after the crash. 

Families may have a wrongful death claim when a pedestrian accident takes a loved one’s life. 

Do I Have A Pedestrian Accident Claim in Michigan?

If a vehicle struck you in Michigan, you may have a claim when another party’s negligence caused your injuries. Michigan’s No-Fault system may provide PIP benefits to injured pedestrians, while additional damages depend on whether your injuries meet Michigan’s serious impairment standard.

Comparative fault can also affect your recovery. If you’re found more than 50% at fault, Michigan law generally bars recovery of those damages. Personal injury claims generally must be filed within three years, subject to exceptions. Ged Lawyers reviews your accident, injuries, insurance coverage, and evidence to determine what claims may be available under Michigan law.
