PEDESTRAIN ACCIDENTS​

​

When pedestrians are injured in accidents, the financial and physical impacts can be substantial. Medical bills and lost income from an inability to work are common challenges. An experienced personal injury attorney can be crucial in navigating these claims.

​

Pedestrian accidents often involve determining who is at fault, which can include both drivers and property owners. Drivers are expected to operate their vehicles responsibly. This means avoiding distractions, adhering to speed limits, and being cautious in areas where pedestrians are likely to be, such as near schools and playgrounds.

​

In addition to vehicle-related incidents, pedestrians might suffer injuries due to unsafe conditions on private or public properties. Property owners are obligated to maintain their premises and address potential hazards. If an injury occurs because of a poorly maintained sidewalk or a dangerous condition that the owner neglected, they may be held accountable.

​

To pursue compensation for a pedestrian accident, it is essential to prove that negligence played a role. This involves showing that someone failed in their duty of care, leading to your injury. Multiple parties, including drivers and property owners, could be responsible.
