Pedestrian Accidents
Thousands of pedestrians are injured every year in traffic accidents. Often these injuries are very serious, as we are dealing with an accident that involves a motor vehicle vs. a person. This law firm currently represents several people in Illinois that have been injured in pedestian knock down accidents.
These accidents can happen when drivers not careful in a variety of situations, such as:
- Failing to yield for pedestrians in crosswalks;
- Backing out of parking spaces in parking lots;
- Speeding in residential areas where there are children playing; and
- Turning right on a red light, and not looking for pedestrians in the crosswalk.
Pedestian accidents can result in injuries such as fractures (broken bones) involving surgical repair, head injuries, various back & neck injuries, and death in some cases. We will work to help you make a monetary recovery for your pain and suffering, medical expenses, loss of income, disfigurement, loss of normal life, and any other losses sustained in the accident.
