Reckless or negligent\ndrivers should be held responsible for physical, emotional and financial harm\nthey inflict on pedestrians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In some cases, the driver may only be partially\nresponsible. It is important to know that in addition to the driver, their\nemployer should take precautions for preventing all accidents. Further, if the\ndriver was under the influence of any substance, a bar or store or person who\nprovided any impairing substance to the driver, for instance, could be liable\nas well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is important to identify every potential\ndefendant and all sources of compensation available to you to maximize the\namount of compensation available to aid in recovery and rehabilitation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Throughout your case, our attorneys will advise\nyou of any settlement offers and advise you on making decisions \u2013 you aren\u2019t in\nthis fight alone.
