Pedestrian Accident Lawyers in Orange County

Were You Hit by a Car as a Pedestrian?

Any time a person is outside of their vehicle, they are considered to be a pedestrian and can be put in danger by reckless or careless motorists. Pedestrians are often struck when they are traveling through crosswalks and drivers fail to obey stop signs and traffic signals.

Tragically, 4,280 pedestrians were killed in 2010 in the United States, and another 70,000 were injured in traffic accidents. These numbers mean that, on average, a pedestrian died every two hours and a pedestrian was injured every eight minutes. The statistics are shocking and in many cases, these devastating incidents could have been prevented.

If you were hit by a car or otherwise injured in a pedestrian accident caused by a negligent driver, an Orange County pedestrian accident attorney from our law firm can help you seek rightful compensation.

How a Pedestrian Accident Can Change Your Life

The injuries sustained by pedestrians are often catastrophic due to the size of cars, trucks, or other motor vehicles, as well as the force of impact. Pedestrian injuries can include broken bones, lacerations, and neck and back injuries in even the most minor of collisions. In the most tragic cases, the accident victim can sustain a traumatic brain injury and spinal cord injury, and the extent of their injuries can even lead to wrongful death. Victims are then left to contend with painful injuries, costly medical bills, lengthy recoveries, battles with insurance companies, and even lifelong disabilities.
