What Mistakes Should I Avoid After a Pedestrian Crash in Omaha, NE?
After a pedestrian crash in Omaha, you should avoid delaying medical treatment, leaving the scene without reporting the accident, admitting fault, or accepting an insurance settlement before understanding the full extent of your injuries. These mistakes can weaken your injury claim and make it harder to recover compensation.
Even though you were on foot, you may be able to seek payment from the driver's insurance for your injuries and other losses. If the driver has little or no insurance, your own uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage may still help, even though you were not in your car at the time.
If your claim succeeds, you may be able to recover compensation for medical bills, future treatment, lost wages, reduced earning ability, and pain and suffering. The amount depends on how the crash has affected your health, your work, and your daily life, as well as how long your recovery is expected to take.
If you share some of the blame, your compensation may be reduced by your share of fault under Nebraska law. You cannot recover anything if you are found 50% or more at fault, so be careful about what you say to insurers and avoid guessing about details you are not sure of.
Under Nebraska law, you generally have four years from the date of the crash to file a personal injury lawsuit, which is longer than in many other states. If you miss this deadline, you may lose the right to seek compensation, even if your injuries turn out to be more serious than you first thought.
If an insurer requests a recorded statement or offers an early settlement, an
Omaha pedestrian accident lawyer can explain what you should consider before responding. An attorney can also handle communications with the insurer on your behalf.
