Pedestrian Accidents in California

A pedestrian accident in California can lead to serious and life-altering injuries for victims. Crashes occur daily across California, and, unfortunately, they routinely affect innocent victims. Pedestrians are among the most vulnerable crash victims because they have little protection from the force and impact of the collision. To make matters worse, pedestrians often have no advance notice as the crash takes place very suddenly and unexpectedly. Last year, over 900 people were killed, and thousands more were hurt when they were involved in California pedestrian crashes. Police will look closely at the circumstances of every collision in order to determine the cause and which driver should ultimately be held liable.

Following a pedestrian accident, victims should seek legal advice at the earliest possible time. Victims or their family members could be entitled to receive compensation if they were not at fault.
