Representing Pedestrian Accident Victims in New York City
New York City is home to some of the heaviest foot traffic in the world. Unfortunately for pedestrians, motorists in New York City are some of the most aggressive drivers in the world, putting individuals, families, tourists, bicyclists, and runners at risk for suffering serious injuries.
If you have been hit by a car, taxi cab, bicyclist, or truck, you deserve to know about your legal rights and options. I am attorney Jeffrey S. Wasserman, and I have more than 30 years of experience representing pedestrian accident victims. I know what legal steps to take to seek maximum compensation for your injuries.
Types of Pedestrian Accidents
My law firm represents pedestrians in a variety of accidents:
- Pedestrian hit by a backing vehicle
- Pedestrian hit by a turning vehicle
- Parking lot accidents
- Bicycle collisions
- Crosswalk accidents
- Other pedestrian accidents
We know how serious pedestrian accident injuries can be. Put up against the force of a 2,000+ lb. vehicle, the pedestrian almost always ends up seriously injured. If you have suffered a spinal cord injury, brain injury, broken bones, or back injury - or if you have lost a loved one in a fatal pedestrian accident - do not wait to contact a personal injury attorney. I prepare a case as if it were going to trial. I fully review all medical reports, eyewitness testimony, and accident scene photos. A detailed investigation is particularly important if the accident was a hit-and-run accident.
