Case Study: Advocating for a Child Pedestrian Injured in a Parking Lot Accident Incident Overview In Billerica, MA, a young student was walking through a school parking lot when she was struck by a vehicle pulling away from the curb. This seemingly routine incident had life-altering consequences for the victim, whose injuries impacted not only her physical well-being but also her ability to contribute to her family responsibilities. Injuries Sustained The collision caused significant soft tissue injuries, including: Shoulder, elbow, wrist, and hip damage: These injuries affected the victim’s mobility and caused chronic pain. Sprained ankle and elbow: These sprains required extensive physical therapy for recovery. These injuries left the victim struggling to sit for extended periods and unable to perform daily tasks. More critically, they interfered with her ability to help her disabled mother care for her younger siblings and manage household chores—a significant burden for the family. Legal Challenges and Advocacy The case presented several complexities: Liability determination: Establishing the driver’s negligence in failing to see the pedestrian and yielding appropriately in a school parking lot. Comprehensive damages: Documenting the long-term impact of the injuries on the victim’s quality of life, family dynamics, and future capabilities. Pre-trial resolution: Reaching a fair settlement without subjecting the young victim and her family to the stress of a courtroom trial. Outcome Through diligent preparation and skilled negotiation, the case was successfully settled prior to trial. The settlement provided the necessary financial resources to cover medical expenses, physical therapy, and compensate the victim for her pain and suffering. Conclusion This case highlights the critical role DiBella Law plays in advocating for injury victims, particularly children, who are especially vulnerable in pedestrian accidents. By addressing not only the immediate medical needs but also the broader impact on a client’s life, DiBella Law ensures justice is served with compassion and expertise. If you or a loved one has been injured in a pedestrian accident, don’t navigate the legal system alone. Contact DiBella Law today to learn how we can help.

After an accident, it’s important to limit who you talk to about your case. Avoid discussing details with insurance adjusters—or anyone else—without consulting your lawyer. What you say could be used against you. Protect your rights and let your attorney handle all communications to ensure the best outcome. #LegalTips #PersonalInjury #ProtectYourRights #ConfidentialityMatters #LegalAdvice #StayProtected
