What to know about pedestrian accident cases in Brooklyn

High-pedestrian zones in Brooklyn

Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brownsville, Crown Heights, Bay Ridge, and Williamsburg are walkable neighborhoods with high pedestrian volumes — left-turn crashes at signalized intersections are the dominant injury pattern.

Pedestrian right-of-way law

NY pedestrian right-of-way law requires drivers to exercise due care toward pedestrians. Left-turning drivers must yield. Right-of-way violations support liability.

Pedestrians ARE covered by no-fault

Even though you weren't a passenger, the at-fault driver's no-fault policy covers your medical bills and lost wages up to $50,000 (basic). We open that claim immediately.

Traffic-cam and witness preservation

Brooklyn has extensive traffic-cam coverage at major intersections. We preserve the footage with notice letters before the 30-90 day overwrite window closes.

Venue and filing

Brooklyn pedestrian claims are filed at Kings County Supreme Court at 360 Adams Street. City of NY defendants (defective signal, missing crosswalk) require special notice rules.

Brooklyn questions, answered.

I was hit as a pedestrian in Brooklyn — can I recover even if I was crossing mid-block?

Possibly yes. Drivers owe pedestrians a duty of care regardless, and fault is rarely all-or-nothing. Let us look at the specifics before you rule anything out.

The driver's insurance offered me a settlement already — should I take it?

Not before you talk to us. Early offers are usually far below what your injuries are worth. Once you sign, you can't go back.

What does a pedestrian accident lawyer cost?

Nothing up front. Contingency — no fee unless we win. The first call is free.

How long do I have to act?

New York sets a firm deadline from the day you got hurt. Call us today and we'll confirm your window.
