What To Do if You’re in a Pedestrian Accident in Boynton Beach
In 2020, there were 341,399 automobile crashes in Florida, including 8,117 pedestrian crashes and 5,952 bicycle crashes. Regardless of how skilled a cyclist you are or how cautious you are when walking, the chances of being involved in a pedestrian accident remain pretty high.
If you or a loved one is involved in an accident, we recommend taking the following steps:
- Seek Medical Attention. Call an ambulance and seek medical attention immediately. Medical care will allow you to treat your injuries before they get worse.
- Collect Insurance Information. Get the driver’s license, vehicle information, and insurance details for the driver involved.
- Call 911. The police will assess what happened and file an accident report. This report will serve as evidence if you decide to press charges. You can obtain a copy of the accident report from the police department.
- Check for Witnesses. Get the contact information of any witnesses. They will be beneficial when it comes to proving liability.
- Take Pictures. Take pictures of the accident scene, including injuries like bruises, cuts, bumps, etc. If you were riding a bike, take a picture of the damage done to your bicycle. These are crucial to building your case.
- Contact a Pedestrian Accident Attorney. Get in touch with an experienced attorney to give you the compensation you deserve while you focus on recovering.
Why Should You Hire a Pedestrian Accident Attorney?
Suffered a pedestrian accident? You’re not alone. Accident attorneys help victims get the justice they deserve. By hiring an experienced lawyer, you could receive compensation for the following:
- Medical and rehabilitation expenses
- Pain, trauma, and suffering
- Lost wages from missed work
- Diminished quality of life
- Funeral expenses/payment for wrongful death
A qualified attorney can prove the party at fault and show how the incident occurred. They do this using the police report, pictures taken at the scene, testimonies from witnesses, and medical exams. With this information, they’ll be able to fight for you by determining the money owed to you. Damages may cover medical expenses, lost income, property damage, etc.
Our Brian D. Guralnick Injury Lawyers team will advise you on the steps you need to take. If you’re unsure of what to do, get in touch with us today.
What Are the Main Causes of Pedestrian Accidents?
Understanding the cause of your pedestrian accident will help maximize your claim. Many situations and behaviors contribute to pedestrian accidents involving a motor vehicle, including:
- Texting while driving
- Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol
- Distracted driving
- Speeding
- Failure to yield
- Impatient drivers
- Bad weather conditions
- Road construction
Pedestrians can’t control the actions of another person. However, there are pedestrian safety tips to keep in mind, like carrying a flashlight or wearing reflective clothing when walking at night. Also, cross the street at the designated crosswalk and walk on the sidewalk instead of the road.
Not following pedestrian safety tips doesn’t necessarily prove you are at fault. A motor vehicle driver involved in a pedestrian-car accident is also not automatically at fault. A careful investigation is necessary to determine fault and compensation.

- Spinal cord injuries
- Brain injuries
- Broken bones
- Loss of limbs
- Scarring or disfigurement
- Death

Should I Make a Claim If I Have Been Injured in an Accident?
Yes, you must file a police report and an insurance accident claim if you sustained injuries from a pedestrian accident.
The claims process is complex and often prohibitive for those who don’t understand personal injury law. It’s the claims filing where lawyers can be the most beneficial.
Lawyers help navigate the tedious process of filing insurance accident claims. They will talk with your insurer and the insurer of the responsible party. They will walk you through the damages you’re entitled to, even for injuries that may seem minor. They’ll advocate on your behalf until you receive a fair settlement.

TESTIMONIALS FROM OUR HAPPY CLIENTS
What an amazing experience I had with Brian and his team. I was referred by a friend after a bad accident. Patricia & Lily have gone above & beyond to be attentive, quick to respond, and very kind. I feel they really cared about my well being, and about my outcome. Brian was a pleasure to work with. You can tell he cares about his company, and it shows in the way he does business and his staff. Thank you again! I will definitely be sending people your way.
I chose Brian Guralnick for my personal injury case because of my experience with Brian on a previous business relationship that I had with him many years ago. At that time I could tell that this man was detail oriented and passionate and caring.
This was my very first experience with a personal injury lawsuit and Brian and his team very professionally advised me and compassionately guided me at every turn. My case was settled much faster than I had expected and for a settlement amount that was higher than I expected. When Brian says that he will “Demand More”, he is absolutely telling the truth.
Brian and his team absolutely know what they are doing.
Brian Guralnick and his staff are the best there is out there! Each staff member was always professional, personable and a pleasure to work with. They all went above and beyond my expectations, and did an excellent job for me. I would highly recommend them to anyone who is in need of this kind of service.
