Frequently Asked Questions
My daughter was crossing the street at a Boston crosswalk when she was struck by a car and severely injured. The police report states that the driver may have been drunk. Should I file a personal injury lawsuit to cover my daughter's medical bills?
A:
Whether the driver was driving while intoxicated or not, your child’s injuries from being struck by a car are most likely cause for a personal injury lawsuit. When your child has been seriously injured in a Massachusetts car accident you should contact a Massachusetts child injury attorney for guidance on your legal options.
Pedestrian accidents often cause severe injuries such as spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury, and/or permanent disability. If your child is struck by a car your Massachusetts child injury attorney can help you determine who was at fault and begin the personal injury lawsuit process.
Because there are many factors in any car and pedestrian accident, your Boston child injury lawyer will need to review the details of your child’s accident before advising you on your options. The police report detailing the condition of the driver and the fact that your child was in a crosswalk are excellent pieces of evidence for proving that the driver was at fault for your child’s injuries.
Before making any decisions on filing a personal injury lawsuit for your child’s injury due to a Massachusetts car accident, you should seek the legal advice of an experienced child injury attorney.
