Pedestrian Hit at a Crosswalk – PLN 85,000 in Compensation Within 3 Months

In July 2025, a 72-year-old woman from Warsaw was hit by a passenger car at a pedestrian crossing. The driver failed to give way to her – the incident was confirmed by the police, and the at-fault driver was issued a fine.

As a result of the accident, the woman suffered serious injuries: a brain contusion, minor intracranial hematomas, a fracture of the occipital bone, and extensive contused wounds to her legs requiring reconstructive surgery with a skin graft. She was hospitalised for more than 6 weeks across three hospital departments, including neurosurgery and traumatology.

The injured woman’s family contacted SAGARTO Law Firm Sp. z o.o. in Warsaw.

The firm’s lawyers immediately took over the case – they collected the medical, police and insurance documentation and then began negotiations with the at-fault driver’s insurer.

The result? Within just approximately 3 months of the accident, a settlement was reached for a total amount of PLN 85,000, covering compensation for pain and suffering, damages and a pension.
