In many ways, cars and pedestrians have to share the roads. When either party is not paying enough attention, the result can be a pedestrian accident.

Pedestrian accidents are usually more dangerous than just auto accidents. Pedestrians are more likely to experience a serious personal injury because they lack the protection that a vehicle offers. Many victims in pedestrian accidents experience:

• Various types of spinal cord injuries, which are life-altering and can end in paralysis
  
• Broken bones, which can affect your ability to work temporarily or permanently
  
• Traumatic brain injuries, which can severely limit your ability to carry on life as normal
  
• Head and neck injuries, which can be difficult to treat
  

Our experienced pedestrian accident attorneys can make sure that you receive compensation to help cover any costs associated with your accident, including:

• Lost wages
  
• Medical expenses (including future expenses)
  
• Pain and Suffering
  
• Funeral Costs
  
• Loss of enjoyment of life
  
• Diminished earning capacity
  

Make sure you provide a written or verbal statement to the police and no one else, so that you are protected. You should speak with a pedestrian accident attorney as soon as possible after your accident to ensure that you receive fair compensation from the insurance company.
