Skilled Legal Representation For Pedestrian Accidents
Pedestrian accidents often result in devastating injuries and life-altering consequences. Unlike drivers, pedestrians have little to no physical protection, leaving them vulnerable to severe harm. We understand the challenges injured pedestrians face and are committed to helping you secure the compensation you deserve. With decades of experience, our attorneys provide compassionate support and aggressive advocacy for pedestrian accident victims.
Common Causes Of Pedestrian Accidents
Pedestrian accidents are often the result of negligence or reckless behavior by drivers. Understanding the cause of your accident is crucial for building a strong case:
- Distracted Driving: Texting, eating, or using navigation systems can cause drivers to fail to notice pedestrians.
- Failure to Yield: Ignoring traffic signals, crosswalks, or pedestrian rights-of-way can lead to dangerous collisions.
- Speeding: High speeds reduce reaction time and the ability to stop in time to avoid pedestrians.
- Poor Visibility: Low lighting, heavy rain, or obstructed signage can increase the likelihood of accidents.
Common Injuries In Pedestrian Accidents
Pedestrians involved in accidents often suffer serious, life-threatening injuries. Because such injuries often necessitate extensive medical treatment and lengthy recovery periods, seeking prompt legal advice can help you secure the necessary resources.
- Head and Brain Injuries: Concussions, skull fractures, and traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) caused by even low-speed impacts.
- Fractures and Broken Bones: Injuries to arms, legs, ribs, or hips are common in collisions.
- Spinal Cord Injuries: High-impact crashes can result in paralysis or chronic back pain.
- Lacerations and Scarring: Deep cuts and abrasions that may lead to infections or permanent scars.
Recoverable Damages In Pedestrian Accident Cases
Victims of pedestrian accidents may be entitled to compensation for a variety of losses. Our attorneys will work tirelessly to ensure every aspect of your damages is accounted for and included in your claim, including:
- Medical Expenses: Coverage for hospital stays, surgeries, rehabilitation, and future medical care.
- Lost Wages: Compensation for income lost during recovery and reduced earning capacity.
- Pain and Suffering: Reimbursement for emotional distress, physical pain, and diminished quality of life.
- Property Damage: Recovery for personal property damaged during the accident, such as clothing or electronics.
