Orange County Pedestrian Accident Attorney
Pedestrian Accident Lawyers in Orange County, CA
Pedestrian accidents occur when a motorist strikes a person on foot, or a dangerous condition causes a pedestrian to slip and fall. Motorists are expected to exercise a certain level of care when driving on the road, including yielding to pedestrians when necessary. When a motorist’s negligent actions lead to a pedestrian accident, he or she will be held liable for the accident and accountable for any damages that need to be paid. Furthermore, if a pedestrian is injured as result of a dangerous condition, the owner of the property where the accident occurred can be held responsible for any injuries.
Representation for Pedestrian Accident Victims in Orange County
If you are the victim of a pedestrian accident in Orange County, we can help. We have significant experience in personal injury law, and have been able to recover many verdicts and settlements on behalf of our clients injured in pedestrian accidents. We know what to look for in order to prove negligence or fault in a pedestrian accident case, as well effective strategies for negotiating large settlements.
From our experience, pedestrian accidents typically occur as a result of a motorist striking a pedestrian because:
- The motorist was driving under the influence
- The motorist failed to yield the right of way to the pedestrian
- The motorist ran a stop sign
- The motorist ran a red light
- The motorist made an illegal turn
It should be noted that driver negligence is not the only cause of pedestrian accidents. When sidewalk conditions are not kept up to standard, a pedestrian may sustain an injury, especially if the sidewalk is cracked, broken, or overcrowded, or if electrical equipment is exposed.
