It’s important to take steps to protect yourself after a pedestrian accident. Avoid accepting blame or apologizing at the scene, while talking with the responding officer, or while interacting with insurance adjusters. Don’t post about the accident on social media or discuss it with anyone other than your trusted Connecticut pedestrian accident lawyer. Finally, don’t do anything that could call your injuries into question. Seek medical attention right away and follow your doctor’s treatment and recovery recommendations, both to promote healing and to preserve your right to compensation.
