You’ve been injured in a car accident in Milwaukee. The bills are piling up. You’re missing time at work. And now the insurance company wants to talk about a settlement.
But how do you know what’s fair? Should you accept their offer? And who’s really looking out for your best interest?
At Natasha Misra Law, we understand how confusing and stressful settlement negotiations can be — especially when you’re recovering from an injury. Our team is here to help you make smart decisions, protect your rights, and secure the compensation you truly deserve.
A settlement is an agreement between you and the at-fault driver’s insurance company to resolve your claim without going to court. In most cases, it’s how car accident cases in Wisconsin are resolved.
But just because a settlement avoids trial doesn’t mean it’s simple — or fair. Insurance companies are trained to protect their bottom line, not your recovery. That’s why having a lawyer who knows the process can make all the difference.
You don’t have to take on the insurance company alone.
When you work with Natasha Misra Law, we handle every part of the negotiation process for you — from gathering medical records and building your claim to pushing back on low offers and demanding what you’re truly owed.
We’ve helped clients across Milwaukee and Wisconsin navigate the insurance process and recover the compensation they need to move forward. We’ll do the same for you.
Every case is different, but here are some of the biggest factors that influence the value of your car accident settlement in Wisconsin:
Who Was at Fault: Liability plays a key role. If the other driver was clearly negligent, you may be entitled to more.
Your Injuries: The more serious your injuries — and the longer your recovery — the more compensation you may need.
Medical Costs: This includes hospital bills, ongoing treatment, physical therapy, and projected future care.
Lost Income: If you missed work or can no longer do your job the same way, that loss should be reflected in your settlement.
Pain and Suffering: Emotional distress, physical pain, and loss of enjoyment of life can and should be part of your compensation.
We don’t just accept the first offer — and we don’t let the insurance company decide what your recovery is worth. Here’s what we do:
Our job is to help you get back on your feet — physically, emotionally, and financially — and we take that job seriously.
If you’ve been injured in a car accident in Milwaukee, you deserve more than a quick payout. You deserve an advocate who will stand by you and fight for every dollar you’re entitled to.

You were crossing the street in downtown Milwaukee when a car sped through a turn and hit you. Or maybe you were walking in a Green Bay crosswalk with the signal when someone texting behind the wheel didn’t stop in time. One moment, you’re thinking about groceries or getting home — the next, you’re disoriented, hurt, and unsure of what just happened.
Unfortunately, pedestrian accidents like these happen far too often. Whether in Madison, Appleton, Fond du Lac, or right here in Milwaukee, we’ve seen firsthand how devastating these crashes can be — physically, emotionally, and financially.
At Natasha Misra Law, we represent people injured through no fault of their own. If you’ve been hit by a car as a pedestrian in Wisconsin, here’s what to do next to protect your health and your right to recover.
Your health comes first. Even if you think your injuries are “just bruises,” get checked out by emergency responders or go directly to the hospital. Adrenaline can mask pain, and some serious injuries — like head trauma, internal bleeding, or fractures — may not show symptoms right away.
If possible, call 911 yourself or ask someone nearby. Having police respond also ensures that a formal accident report is created — a vital piece of evidence later on.
If you’re physically able, take photos or videos of the scene. Capture:
Also, try to collect contact information from witnesses. Their perspective can help establish fault and support your claim.
The driver may apologize or try to explain. They may even ask you not to report it — or worse, offer cash to “keep it quiet.” Don’t agree to anything and don’t admit fault, even if you’re unsure what happened.
Insurance companies may use anything you say to minimize or deny your claim. Let the facts — and your attorney — speak for you.
In the days and weeks after the accident, continue to follow up with your doctors. Keep a detailed record of your injuries, medications, physical therapy, missed work, and how the injuries are affecting your life. All of this can be critical in securing fair compensation.
Insurance companies often try to shift blame onto the pedestrian or pressure you into accepting a low settlement — especially if you’re handling the claim on your own.
With the help of a personal injury attorney, you will be able to pursue all available insurance coverage. This includes the insurance company for the at fault. Additionally, you may also be able to seek compensation through your own auto insurance which can also provide coverage to you when you are a pedestrian struck by a vehicle.
At Natasha Misra Law, we fight for your full recovery. We understand the unique challenges pedestrian accident victims face, and we know how to hold drivers and insurance companies accountable. Our law firm works on a contingency fee basis, meaning you don’t pay unless we win.
We also make communication easy for all clients — our team uses a professional translation service that supports nearly any language, including Spanish, Burmese, and Rohingya, so you can feel fully heard and supported throughout the process.
If you were hit by a car while walking in Milwaukee, Madison, Green Bay, Appleton, or Fond du Lac, don’t wait to get the help you need. You deserve to recover — physically, emotionally, and financially — from what happened. Let us know what happened and we can work on getting your case started, contact us today!
