Should I Talk to the Insurance Company After a Pedestrian Accident?
Read Our Free Pedestrian Accident Guide
When people are involved in a pedestrian accident, they often worry about how their medical bills, lost wages, and treatment will be covered.
Do not speak with the insurance company for the vehicle that hit you. New York’s no-fault law may provide benefits regardless of who caused the accident, including payment of medical bills, a portion of lost wages, and certain incidental expenses.
The vehicle’s insurer is responsible for those no-fault payments and may also be the company from which you seek compensation for your injuries. Anything you say can be used to limit or deny your claim, and there is nothing you need to tell the insurer that will improve your case.
