A pedestrian accident at a crosswalk can have a profound impact on your life, affecting your health, job, and overall well-being. You may require urgent medical treatment, help with bill management, and information about the incident. You may also be dealing with time away from work and family logistics while you are attending—and paying for—medical appointments. If you are searching for a Denver pedestrian crosswalk accident lawyer, Arckey & Steele has the experience, straightforward guidance, and transparent communication that you need.
Our pedestrian accident attorneys could secure video footage, gather witness statements, and organize medical records to preserve evidence. We could keep you informed, respond quickly, and build a strong case by preparing your file as if we were going to court.
Crosswalk accidents often result from preventable driver mistakes. Common causes include scenarios where drivers make careless decisions, including:
However, in some instances, the driver may not be entirely at fault; sometimes, they may fail to notice faded crosswalk markings or long crossings, or poorly timed traffic signals may confuse or rush them.
Our lawyers in Denver could gather evidence to prove who or what was at fault for the collision that injured you as you crossed at a crosswalk. We could document the crash scene, collect relevant video footage, and seek evidence such as phone and vehicle data, as well as toxicology test results, to explain how and why the collision occurred.
A strong case relies on quick, thorough work at and near the accident location. We could gather any traffic signal data and timing plans, check with nearby businesses for camera footage, and obtain public transport footage where possible. Vehicle event data, smartphone location, step timestamps, and lane measurements all help trace movement. Items such as footwear, reflective gear, strollers, or personal items damaged in the crash can indicate direction of travel and visibility. Treatment notes recording your symptoms from the day of the incident—along with documented evidence of the effect on your ability to work—illustrate the incident’s impact on your daily life. Our attorneys could provide this evidence to Denver insurers and courts in crosswalk collision cases, serving as a clear representation of the facts surrounding your pedestrian injury.
Different types of insurance policies cover pedestrian accidents in Denver; our lawyers could review your specific insurance arrangements after a crosswalk collision and advise you on how to proceed. MedPay coverage on your auto policy can cover initial medical expenses up to your limit, regardless of who is at fault. Ongoing treatments are typically covered by health insurance, depending on the excess and any charges you must pay. The at-fault driver’s liability insurance often reimburses medical costs later through settlement or at the direction of the court.
If the driver lacks insurance or has inadequate coverage, your motorist coverage may provide protection. We could verify relevant policies, submit bills to the appropriate payers, and work with medical providers and insurers to ensure you do not have to worry about outstanding bills. We aim to ensure you can focus on recovery while we work on your liability claim.
You deserve a law firm that treats your case with the utmost care and attention. If you hire us, we could begin working on your behalf immediately. Our approach is to be ready for trial and dedicated to securing results.
We start by listening carefully and developing a plan to achieve justice. Reach out to a compassionate Denver pedestrian crosswalk accident lawyer at Ackley & Steele today to discuss your claim during a complimentary consultation.
