Answer:

If you were a pedestrian injured by the negligence of another, it’s very important that you hire the right type of lawyer for your case. There are several characteristics you should look at before doing so. One thing you should look at is if that lawyer is focused on personal injury. You want to hire a lawyer that does nothing but personal injury, has a lot of experience in personal injury, and has handled pedestrian cases, because they involve many unique characteristics.

Another important thing you want to look at before hiring a lawyer for your pedestrian accident case is if that lawyer will go to trial. Does that lawyer have trial experience? Does that lawyer have the resources to hire the right experts to take your case to trial? Is that lawyer afraid to go to trial? There are many lawyers out there that have never been to trial, that never go to trial, even though they call themselves trial lawyers.

Another thing you want to look at is the background of that lawyer. How many years of experience do they have in personal injury? Have they represented injured people, injured companies for many years? Have they defended people, so that they know both sides of the coin?
