Pedestrian Accidents
Pedestrians are among the most vulnerable road users, and accidents often result in severe injuries. We fight to hold negligent drivers accountable and secure the compensation you deserve.
Understanding Pedestrian Accident Claims
Pedestrian accidents are often catastrophic, as people on foot have no protection against vehicles. If you were hit by a car, truck, or motorcycle, you may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and long-term care.
Key factors in a pedestrian accident claim include:
- Driver Negligence – Speeding, distracted driving, running red lights, and failure to yield are common causes of pedestrian crashes.
- Severe Injuries – Pedestrians often suffer broken bones, traumatic brain injuries, spinal damage, and internal trauma.
- Insurance Disputes – Drivers and their insurers may attempt to shift blame onto the pedestrian to reduce liability.
In California, pedestrians generally have the right of way, and drivers must exercise caution. We fight to protect your rights and maximize your compensation.
How We Maximize Compensation for Pedestrian Accidents
Pedestrian accidents often require extensive medical treatment and result in long-term physical and emotional consequences. We work to secure full compensation by:
- Gathering Crucial Evidence – Traffic camera footage, accident reports, and witness testimony help prove driver fault.
- Calculating Total Damages – Compensation should cover emergency care, rehabilitation, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
- Challenging Insurance Tactics – Insurers may argue that the pedestrian was at fault. We fight back to ensure you receive fair compensation.
With extensive experience in high-value injury cases, we ensure victims get the financial support they need for recovery.

What to Do After a Pedestrian Accident
If you have been hit by a vehicle, taking the right steps can strengthen your case and protect your rights:
- Seek immediate medical attention – Even minor injuries can become serious over time.
- Call the police – An official accident report is key to proving fault.
- Gather evidence – Take photos of the scene, your injuries, and any vehicle involved.
- Obtain witness contact information – Bystanders can provide valuable testimony.
- Do not speak to insurance adjusters alone – Anything you say may be used against you.
- Consult an attorney – A pedestrian accident lawyer can help you navigate complex legal challenges and maximize your claim.
