A fall at a supermarket gave me a serious shoulder injury and a long recovery. The store’s insurance company initially questioned how the accident happened. I went straight to Pathway for help and was very happy with the outcome they got me.Posted on Google![]()

I slipped on a wet surface at a retail store and suffered a significant knee injury. What started as what I thought would be a straightforward accident turned into a much more complicated claim.

I was in a car accident almost two years ago, I reached out to Pathway Law Firm for help navigating the process I found myself in. From the beginning they told me their priority was to make sure I got the care I needed regarding my injuries. Pathway has been by my side every step of the way, through multiple surgeries; my team was diligent in their check-ins and touching base with me after every treatment for the sole purpose of seeing how I was feeling during my recovery. My lawyer Jack Jambazian is someone I will always consider a friend, and an individual anyone would be lucky to have fighting in their corner. He was unwavering, professional and efficient in the handling of my case. Day or Night, he always made himself available to me for any question, concern or problem I had. I never felt like a number in a queue or a future check to be cashed. If anything like this were to happen to me or my wife in the future; Pathway Law Firm and specifically Jack Jambazian is who I will call.Posted on Google![]()

Someone turned left directly in front of my motorcycle and I ended up needing extensive treatment. The other driver tried to make the accident sound very different from what actually happened. Pathway fought the liability issue and made sure my side of the story was represented.Posted on Google![]()

Being involved in this accident as a passenger was stressful and left me feeling anxious throughout the process. Dealing with injuries and the uncertainty of everything that comes after an accident can be overwhelming. I had been through the claims process before, and this experience felt much more organized. Reyna at Pathway Law Firm was responsive, professional, and kept me informed along the way. Whenever I had questions, she took the time to explain what was happening and made sure I knew what to expect. She helped me get started with treatment promptly and handled everything efficiently, which made the process much less overwhelming. I appreciated her attention to detail and the care she showed from beginning to end. I am grateful for Reyna and the team at Pathway Law Firm for making a difficult situation easier to get through, and I would recommend them to anyone looking for reliable legal representation after an accident.Posted on Google![]()

My accident occurred on June 14, 2026, and it was my first accident, so I was understandably nervous. I immediately contacted law enforcement, but they declined to make a crash report. They did, however, help us exchange insurance information. I was worried that the other driver's insurance company wouldn't take responsibility for their insured's negligence. Thankfully, I reached out to Reyna at Pathway Law Firm. She was knowledgeable, experienced, and supportive throughout the entire process. Reyna worked quickly to ensure liability was accepted within 14 days and helped resolve my property damage claim within 30 days of my accident. She also helped me get reimbursed for my daughter's car seat and made sure I was able to begin treatment for my injuries right away. I truly appreciate Reyna's professionalism, communication, and dedication. She made a stressful situation much easier to navigate, and I highly recommend Reyna and the Pathway Law Firm to anyone who needs help after an accident.

FAQ
Who is at fault if I was hit by a car while walking?
Fault often lies with the driver if they were distracted, speeding, or failed to yield, but sometimes both parties share responsibility. Our team investigates every detail, and you may still recover compensation even if you’re partly at fault.
Can I get compensation if I was hit by a car while crossing the street?
Yes. If the driver was negligent in any way, you may be able to get compensation for medical bills, lost income, or other damages.
What should I do immediately after a pedestrian accident?
Get medical help, call the police, document the scene if you can, and avoid talking to insurance adjusters until you’ve spoken to an attorney. Quick action protects both your health and your legal rights.
How much is a pedestrian accident case worth?
Each case is different, but factors like injury severity, lost wages, and long-term recovery all affect value. Our firm has recovered significant compensation for injury victims and will evaluate your case based on its unique facts.
Can I still file a claim if I was jaywalking when the accident happened?
In many places, comparative negligence laws allow you to recover compensation even if you were partly at fault. Your recovery may be reduced by your percentage of fault, but it isn’t necessarily eliminated.
Do I need a lawyer for a pedestrian accident, or will insurance cover my bills?
Insurance companies rarely offer full compensation on their own. Having a lawyer ensures your rights are protected, your damages are fully documented, and your recovery is maximized.
