Pedestrian Accidents

California's beautiful weather, scenery, and climate make the state ideal for a nice walk or jog around the neighborhood. However, while these activities are enjoyable, Los Angeles is among the most dangerous places for pedestrians.

Common Causes of Los Angeles Pedestrian Accidents

The NHSTA reports a pedestrian being struck every two hours in the United States, with roughly 1/8 of these accidents being fatal. Lacking any protection, even a slow-moving collision from a car, truck, or motorcycle can leave a pedestrian with significant injuries they must deal with for months and years. Some of the more common causes of pedestrian accidents that we help our clients recover financial compensation for include:

Distracted driving
Alcohol or drugs
Poor weather conditions
Speeding
Failure to obey traffic signs
Unmarked crosswalks
Jaywalking
Poor lighting

What if I was Jaywalking When My Pedestrian Accident Happened?

Whether you were jaywalking or doing something else that helped cause your Los Angeles pedestrian accident, your case can still be worth a lot of money. The state of California is a comparative negligence state which means that your role in the accident is compared and reduced by the percentage of the accident you are responsible for. Working with an experienced pedestrian accident lawyer can limit your assigned liability while maximizing your recovery.

Why Should I Hire a Los Angeles Pedestrian Accident Lawyer For My Case?

Pedestrian accident cases often yield substantial financial compensation. Still, they are complicated to win, mainly if you played a role in causing your accident or there are multiple defendants involved (i.e., the city of Los Angeles). As such, hiring a pedestrian accident attorney in Los Angeles is always in your best interest. The expert team at Fiore Legal takes pedestrian accident cases on a contingency fee basis, so you pay us nothing unless we win your case. Time is of the essence—get in touch with Fiore Legal today to learn more and get started.
