Victims of pedestrian accidents oftentimes suffer life altering injuries. They don't have protection against the multi-thousand pound vehicle. Some injuries include:

• head injuries
• back injuries
• spinal cord injuries
• broken bones
• lacerations
• burns
• amputations
• paralysis

Not only do these victims have to go through the physical stresses of their new challenges, they also have to suffer emotional stresses after their medical bills and lost wages cause a financial strain in their life.

After being struck by a motor vehicle, pedestrians are entitled to the same type of compensation as any motorist. In fact, they may even be entitled to more. Some compensation you may be entitled to includes:

• reimbursement for medical bills
• repayment of lost wages
• compensation for pain and suffering
• compensation for emotional distress
• compensation for permanent scarring, embarrassment, and disfigurement

The Miami pedestrian accident attorneys at Porter & Korvick know how to handle these claims and will conduct an efficient investigation, collect pertinent evidence, and deal with the insurance companies involved.
