Pedestrian Accidents

In large cities such as Los Angeles, the population is large and millions of tourists also each year. Because things are in such close proximity and parking and traffic can be difficult at times, many people choose to walk. Even though many people choose to get by on foot, there is no doubt that there are still many people in Los Angeles that choose to drive. Unfortunately, many innocent pedestrians are struck by vehicles and injured or killed because a driver was negligent. Speaking with our accident lawyers is vital if someone close to you was hit by a car.

Drivers end up hitting pedestrians for a number of reasons, which include but is not limited to:

* Talking on Cell Phones
* Running Red Lights
* Running Stop Signs
* Speeding
* Fatigue
* Drunk Driving

A recent one year study shows that approximately 5,000 pedestrians in the United States get killed by a vehicle. This number is simply way too high and major cities such as Los Angeles, Hollywood, and Huntington Beach are some of the many cities that pedestrian accidents have occurred in. Also, many pedestrian accidents occur at intersections and a lot of the time, the victims are children. If your child was struck by a vehicle, contact our Hollywood Accident lawyers today.

In almost all situations, pedestrians have the right-of-way, according to California state law. Getting hit by a car can result in serious injury such as bone fractures, disability, and disfigurement. Other times, a pedestrian accident can be fatal. If the driver that hit you or your loved one in Los Angeles was uninsured, you may still be eligible to receive compensation through your own insurance provider. Contact a lawyer for more information on how you can receive the compensation that you deserve.
