Pedestrian Accident FAQs

How long do I have to file a pedestrian accident claim in Connecticut?

In Connecticut, you typically have two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury claim. This is known as the statute of limitations. Filing after this deadline may result in your case being dismissed.

How much is my case worth?

The value of your case depends on several factors, including the extent of your injuries, medical costs, lost wages, and how the accident has impacted your daily life. Cases involving serious or permanent injuries generally result in higher compensation.

What are the state’s pedestrian accident laws?

Connecticut law requires drivers to yield to pedestrians in marked crosswalks and to exercise caution to avoid collisions. Pedestrians must also obey traffic signals and avoid stepping into traffic unexpectedly. Determining fault depends on the actions of both the driver and the pedestrian.

What happens if the driver flees the scene?

If the driver leaves the scene of the accident, it becomes a hit-and-run. You should report the incident to the police immediately. If the driver can’t be located, you may still be eligible for compensation through your uninsured motorist coverage or with the help of an attorney.

How long will it take to settle a pedestrian accident claim?

The length of time it takes to resolve a claim depends on the complexity of the case, the severity of your injuries, and whether liability is disputed. While some cases may settle within a few months, others could take a year or more. Goff Law Group is experienced in handling pedestrian accident claims in Connecticut and works hard to resolve cases efficiently while pursuing the full compensation you deserve.
