Our Pedestrian Accident Lawyers in Washington Are Here For You
Pedestrians are especially vulnerable to being injured by the negligence of other drivers. Professional bus and truck drivers, as well as everyday automobile drivers owe a reasonable duty of care to pedestrians. What that means is that drivers must exercise reasonable care in watching out for pedestrians, whether on the roadway, in a parking lot, a crosswalk, or a driveway. Failure to exercise such care is negligence; when that negligent action results in a pedestrian being injured, that negligent driver is responsible for those injuries and that pedestrian may be entitled to fair compensation. Our dedicated team of Washington Personal Injury Lawyers is committed to providing compassionate support and expert legal representation to ensure that victims receive the justice and compensation they deserve.
With a proven track record of success in navigating complex legal processes and advocating for our clients’ rights, we strive to alleviate the burdens of legal proceedings so that our clients can focus on healing and rebuilding their lives
Injuries suffered by pedestrians can range from soft tissue injuries, to broken bones, to spinal injuries, loss of limbs, serious internal trauma, or even death.
Sometimes the negligent and responsible party acts even more irresponsibly, and leaves the scene of the collision. Commonly referred to as “Hit and Run,” in Washington State, this is a crime and can greatly affect how your claim is handled, depending on whether the responsible party is ever identified, for example, and/or you have sufficient Uninsured Motorist Protection.
