Pedestrian accidents are accidents in which a pedestrian is hit or struck generally by a car, truck, bike or motorcycle where they suffer personal injuries. When a pedestrian is complying with all road safety regulations and they are injured in a pedestrian accident, it is essential that you contact our attorneys as soon as possible so we may gather and document all of the necessary facts associated with your injury accident. Similarly, if the pedestrian is killed, the pedestrian’s family should speak with an attorney to determine whether they wish to bring a wrongful death action on their loved one’s behalf. When a pedestrian suffers injuries, they should hire an attorney to protect their legal rights.
