PEDESTRIAN ACCIDENTS

If you’ve been hit by a vehicle, you could be entitled to compensation. Experienced pedestrian accident attorneys located in Pennsylvania can help you build a case.

Pedestrian accidents are common but can be devastating when there are serious injuries involved. Pedestrian accidents are most often caused by drivers of motor vehicles who are not paying attention to their surroundings or who do not yield to pedestrians. These types of accidents can happen almost anywhere, including:

  • In mall, supermarket or department store parking lots

  • In crosswalks

  • When a person is entering or exiting their vehicle

  • On sidewalks

  • In parking garages

  • When walking on the side of the road in residential areas

  • In driveways

Because of the vulnerability that a pedestrian has, they are often injured severely in these types of accidents. Rarely is the driver of the motor vehicle injured, but the pedestrian will likely have to receive medical care including:

  • Emergency medical care

  • Hospitalization

  • Surgeries

  • Medication

  • Physical therapy

  • Sutures or staples

  • Casts or splints

  • Blood transfusions
