Pedestrian Accidents

Pedestrians are exposed to the full force of a collision.

A pedestrian struck by a vehicle may suffer fractures, head injury, spinal injury, or other life-changing harm. Deliso Law investigates serious pedestrian collisions throughout New York City.

Immediate collision investigation

Preserving what shows how the impact occurred.

Video, photographs, witness information, police materials, traffic controls, vehicle damage, and scene evidence may help reconstruct the event.

The medical evidence should connect the collision to the injuries, treatment, limitations, surgery when applicable, and ongoing condition.

What the case may involve

A focused investigation built around the disputed issues.

Crosswalk evidence

Signal timing, lane position, turning movements, and available surveillance can be significant.

Vehicle and driver evidence

The investigation may include ownership, insurance, business use, driver conduct, and other available records.

Damages

Serious pedestrian cases often require careful documentation of medical treatment, mobility restrictions, work loss, and long-term impairment.

Pedestrian Accidents questions

Questions that often arise at the beginning of a case.

What evidence matters in a pedestrian case?

Available video, photographs, witnesses, police materials, traffic controls, vehicle information, and medical records can all be important.

What if the driver says I entered the roadway suddenly?

Conflicting accounts are evaluated against the physical evidence, video, witnesses, traffic controls, vehicle position, and other available proof.

Do I need to wait until treatment is finished before speaking with a lawyer?

No. Early legal review can help preserve evidence while medical treatment continues. The eventual value and proof of an injury claim depend on the full medical course and other case-specific facts.
