WE UNDERSTAND THE LEGAL IMPLICATIONS OF PEDESTRIAN ACCIDENTS
Connecticut’s laws are quite clear: motorists are to yield the right of way to pedestrians under most circumstances. Unfortunately, Pedestrians are often hit by distracted drivers, drivers going too fast and those not paying attention to people in crosswalks.
When that happens, there are often legal disputes about who had the right of way, especially if the pedestrian was crossing the street at an unmarked crosswalk. The insurance companies take these claims very seriously because they know how costly the injuries sustained can be. You need an experienced attorney to level the playing field.
