That means that pedestrians continue to be very vulnerable to negligent drivers, lack of lighting at night, lack of roads in good walking conditions, among others.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">A personal injury attorney often handles pedestrian accident lawsuits as well. As in any other accident, the attorney will be responsible for investigating all the circumstances surrounding the event. Your lawyer must determine how the accident occurred, the conditions in which it occurred, as well as the parties involved. Conducting this investigation is crucial to determining guilt, establishing and developing your case, and obtaining damages from the responsible party.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Other activities that your lawyer could carry out are:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Review of police reports.\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Your attorney will request a copy of the report that was made at the time of your accident.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Review of medical reports.<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0He\/she will also request a copy of any medical studies that have been performed on you after the accident. With this, your attorney will be able to determine the severity of your injuries, as well as the expenses that you will have to cover, and if you will be able to return to work immediately.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Interview potential witnesses<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0who were at the scene of the accident.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Take or collect photographs<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0of the place where it occurred, and if possible, of your injuries.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Review video footage<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0from nearby cameras that may have captured the moment of the accident.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Recreate how the accident happened<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0to determine the degree of responsibility of the people involved.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Carry out the procedures and negotiations with the insurance companies<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">.
