It’s Time to Contact a Charlotte Pedestrian Accident Lawyer
We never recommend trying to recover from a pedestrian accident on your own. There are a lot of parties who want to try and convince you that you don’t deserve compensation for your losses. You need a stalwart ally on your side if you want to prevent those parties from misrepresenting your right to financial support.
Fortunately, our Charlotte pedestrian accident attorneys have decades of combined legal experience keeping insurance claims adjusters and liable parties in line. We won’t let any of these parties approach you with insufficient settlement offers or try to convince you that your losses are worth less than they actually are.
Instead, our team prioritizes your right to ask for compensation based on your economic and non-economic expenses. If you want to take your case to trial, we can. If you want to negotiate for support, we’ll be with you every step of the way.
We File Insurance Claims and Pursue Personal Injury Claims
What’s the best way to financially recover from a Charlotte pedestrian accident? Should you file an insurance claim, or should you file a personal injury lawsuit?
- Insurance claims come in handy when the person responsible for your accident has coverage. Filing an insurance claim allows you to negotiate for support with a provider. However, you may find your right to support limited by how much protection a liable party has invested in.
- Personal injury lawsuits do not require you to take the people responsible for your pedestrian accident to a civil trial. Instead, you can directly negotiate with these people for the economic and non-economic damages you need to pay your bills. If the need to go to trial arises, your lawsuit gives you the right to do so.

You Don’t Have to Accept the First Settlement Offer You Receive
Both an insurance claim and a personal injury lawsuit can help you secure the financial support you need to pay your bills and financially recover from a pedestrian accident. However, it’s usually not the best idea to accept the first settlement offer you receive, no matter which of these processes you’re pursuing.
The first settlement offer you receive, whether you file an insurance claim or personal injury lawsuit, will often vastly underestimate the value of your actual losses. You can take that first offer, share it with an experienced pedestrian accident lawyer in Charlotte, and return to the negotiating table.
Turning down a settlement offer doesn’t prevent you from receiving other offers in the future. You can turn down an insufficient offer and present your own request for support—one backed by an attorney’s calculations and legal experience.

We Keep You On Top of Your Case’s Statute of Limitations
If you want to pursue a personal injury claim in the wake of a pedestrian accident, make sure you file your paperwork before your statute of limitations expires. N.C. Stat. § 1-52(5) allows you to take up to three years to compile the evidence needed to name someone else responsible for your recovery.
Fortunately, working with an attorney lets you put the responsibility for keeping that deadline onto the shoulders of an experienced legal professional.
Our team understands how a statute of limitations can impact your investigation. While you prioritize your physical health, our team of 130+ legal professionals will compose the narrative of negligence needed to move your case forward.
