Pedestrian Accidents

Cleveland, Ohio Pedestrian Accident Lawyers

Getting Compensation for Injured Pedestrians

Children walking to and from school, the elderly crossing busy streets, people in busy city crosswalks - these are the people most vulnerable to injury from inattentive drivers. Pedestrian accidents can happen because of:

  • Speeding
  • Reckless driving
  • Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs
  • Driving around a stopped school bus, or failing to stop for a school patrol
  • Failure to yield the right of way to a pedestrian in the crosswalk
  • Drivers ignoring traffic signals
  • Drivers looking left rather than right when making a right turn into a crosswalk

Pedestrian accidents almost always lead to serious injury or wrongful death. The high cost of medical care, rehabilitation, medical equipment, nursing home or ongoing home care for a serious injury can run in the millions. Even a multiple leg fracture or broken knee can be debilitating and costly.

Certainly, families suffer a tremendous emotional and financial burden when a loved one dies in a fatal accident.

It's extremely important to obtain full financial compensation so you can afford the care you need.
