PEDESTRIAN ACCIDENTS

We all know that a large number of drivers in the United States do not stop for pedestrians that are attempting to cross streets using crosswalks.

Often drivers violate the pedestrians' right of way in crosswalks. And despite the age old advice to "look twice before crossing" a pedestrian is killed in a traffic crash every 100 minutes in the United States.

Last year several pedestrian fatalities occurred in Washington State and every year our law firm represents various pedestrian personal injury claims. Unfortunately, pedestrians find themselves at an ultimate disadvantage when hit by a vehicle and these type of accidents sadly lead to devastating outcomes.

If you, or a loved one, have been involved in a pedestrian accident and you feel that injuries were suffered due to another road user's negligence, it is important to consult legal help.
