The Detrimental Effects of a Pedestrian Accident

Accidents involving pedestrians are serious affairs but even worse if a child is involved. The physical and psychological trauma caused is much worse in a child and equally distressing for the family. There is the physical pain of the accident itself plus the mental and emotional distress caused which can persist for many years. In some cases this results in post traumatic stress disorder. If you have been involved in an accident as a pedestrian then there are additional consequences which include loss of earnings due to time off work; travel to hospital on regular occasions which means taxi fares or car parking charges; specialist nursing care; rehabilitation services, e.g. physiotherapy and specialist aids.

If you, a family member, or friend has recently suffered a personal injury or is currently on long-term disability as a result of a pedestrian accident, then you may be entitled to compensation. Let Greater Toronto Area’s Premier Family-First Personal Injury and Long-Term Disability Lawyers at Benjamin Law handle the details, in order to get you the compensation that you deserve.
