What the other side does

They protect their profits. We protect your future.

After a serious injury, insurance companies move quickly to protect their bottom line—not your recovery. We handle the calls, paperwork, deadlines, and negotiations so you can focus on healing while we fight for the full compensation you deserve.

01
A quick settlement before you know the full cost.
Insurance companies often make early offers before the true extent of your injuries and future expenses is clear. We make sure every loss is accounted for before you decide.
02
Questioning who was really at fault.
Adjusters may try to shift blame or minimize their responsibility. We gather the evidence needed to build a strong case on your behalf.
03
Downplaying your injuries.
They may argue your injuries aren't as serious as they are. We work with medical experts and documentation to show the full impact on your life.
04
Delaying your claim.
The longer your case drags on, the more pressure you may feel to settle. We keep your claim moving and protect your rights every step of the way.
A different kind of firm

It doesn't matter where you are, we'll come to you.

Hospital bed. Living room. Coffee shop. Wherever you are, that's where the case starts. You shouldn't have to figure out parking or a courthouse on top of everything else.

Don’t Wait to Contact a California Pedestrian Accident Lawyer

Pedestrian accidents can affect you for the rest of your life, be that financially or physically. If you want to get ahead of the curve, you may want to connect with a pedestrian accident attorney in California.

Experienced legal professionals can help you craft an insurance claim while preserving your right to take a potentially liable party to civil court.

You can discuss how you want to approach your potential liability claim during a free pedestrian accident case consultation. You can book your consultation immediately after your accident and begin benefiting from a personal injury lawyer’s legal advice without putting any money down toward our services.

We’re here to meet your needs and can tailor our available services to suit your long-term goals.

Our pedestrian accident lawyers aren’t here to push a specific strategy onto your recovery but to instead outline your options.

The Sweet James Advantage

If you want to recover from a serious pedestrian accident, make sure you’re working with a legal team that puts you first. Sweet James offers Personalized Service Focused on You, no matter how complicated your case seems. 

Our lawyers can leverage our extensive experience on your behalf, whether you want to take a case to court or negotiate with insurers. 

You won’t have to worry about the cost of working with our team once you reach out. Your pedestrian accident case consultation comes free of charge. If you decide you want to work with us, we can take your case without asking for any upfront payments or hourly fees.

You only owe attorneys’ fees at the resolution of your case. (Clients may be responsible for other costs.)

We Can Help You Understand Your Potential Options

If you decide that you want to pursue an insurance claim after a pedestrian accident, you need to identify if a liable party’s policy may cover the costs related to your recovery.

Our legal team can break down the logistics of a liable party’s policy while simultaneously gathering evidence indicating that you qualify for coverage and can hold a negligent party accountable. 

We can then begin outlining the cost of your recovery, accounting for your medical expenses and property damage on top of your reduced quality of life, stress, and emotional distress. 

We’re prepared to negotiate directly with adjusters on your behalf, sparing you the stress of navigating complicated conversations. If an insurance company continually refuses to acknowledge your right to financial support, we can take your case to a civil trial.

We Can Negotiate With Insurance Companies

So long as you file a pedestrian accident claim within California’s statute of limitations (Cal. Code of Civ. Proc. § 335.1), you can argue for accident compensation through the civil system.

Filing a pedestrian accident claim doesn’t require you to go to trial, though. If you move forward with a claim, you can instead invite a liable party to meet you for settlement negotiations.

Our California pedestrian accident attorneys can oversee these negotiations on your behalf, emphasizing your right to support using evidence of negligence and its associated costs.

If a liable party won’t offer you a fair settlement, we can prepare you for discovery before representing you in front of a judge.

Most pedestrian accident cases are resolved through negotiations. We can break down what to expect from this process during your free case consultation.

We Can Help You Seek Financial Support

As long as you can show that negligence played a role in your pedestrian accident, you have the right to ask for financial support based on the cost of your recovery. What’s the average value of a pedestrian accident settlement, though? Unfortunately, there’s no set average.

No two pedestrian accidents result in the same injuries. As such, victims of pedestrian accidents need to individually assess their losses before seeking accident compensation. Fortunately, our team can do the math on your account, helping your request for support include the value of your relevant economic and non-economic losses.

The losses you may have the right to include in a California pedestrian accident claim may cover your:

  • Emergency room care
  • Prolonged medical treatments
  • At-home assistance, mobility aids, and physical therapy
  • Lost wages
  • Lost earning ability
  • Property damage
  • Pain and suffering
  • Reduced quality of life
  • Emotional distress
