PEDESTRIAN ACCIDENTS

Almost 5,000 pedestrians die in automobile related accidents and close to 80,000 are injured when hit in the United States annually, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Association. Thousands of non-vehicle related accidents also occur every year due to poor maintenance of sidewalks and individual property.

 

If an accident is caused in which the pedestrian is injured and not at fault, the victim may seek legal action if negligence on the part of the person at fault. A qualified attorney can help prove that the injured person is owed some sort of compensation if the victim is for example, struck by a driver or if the location of the accident’s occurrence was unkempt by an otherwise responsible party.


In pedestrian accident cases, the earlier the victim seeks a lawyer, the better the chances he or she will be able to protect the claim.

 



If you think you or a loved one has experienced a pedestrian accident and feel you need to be compensated for your pain and suffering, please read the section on Personal Injuries" or proceed directly to submit your case.
