I Was Crossing the Street and Hit by a Car. What Are My Rights?
As a pedestrian you have the right of way in California, even if you are not at a crosswalk, but your rights vary depending upon the facts. If you are crossing a street in an intersection crosswalk with the light green for your direction, you have absolute rights and liability will be fully placed onto the driver of the car that struck you.
If you are crossing a driveway and a car exiting the parking lot strikes you, you have the absolute right of way as well.

You were wonderful throughout my case. Thank you so much for taking the time to explain the process so that I could feel comfortable. When I was hurt, I really did not know where to turn and Suzanne was comforting and knowledgable. Thanks again for all you did.
