At TopDog Law, we know that pedestrians are some of the most vulnerable users of the road. Each year, pedestrian accidents injure thousands of individuals, or worse, kill them. In fact, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) estimates that a pedestrian is injured every seven minutes in traffic crashes in the United States. In such cases, you may face substantial medical expenses, emotional trauma, lost income, and other hardships.
We have a nationwide network of dedicated pedestrian accident lawyers who are committed to fighting for the rights of victims. Our network attorneys understand that a pedestrian accident can inflict trauma that significantly affects your life. They will do their utmost to ensure that the at-fault party compensates you fairly and adequately for your injuries and losses.
The attorneys in our network are experienced in a wide range of cases and scenarios, including:
Pedestrians are particularly vulnerable to injuries when cars strike them. Our network attorneys have extensive experience in handling cases involving negligent drivers, reckless driving, distracted driving, and other factors that contribute to car-pedestrian accidents.
Collisions between bicycles and pedestrians can lead to severe injuries. A lawyer in our network has a deep understanding of the laws and regulations governing bicyclists’ and pedestrians’ rights. They will work diligently to hold the responsible parties accountable.
A hit-and-run accident makes identifying the responsible party especially challenging for a pedestrian. Our network lawyers have the resources and investigative skills to track down the at-fault driver and pursue the compensation you deserve.
Driver negligence, improper maintenance, or other factors make sharing the road with buses risky for pedestrians. The attorneys in our network have successfully handled cases involving bus accidents and will fight for your rights against bus companies and their insurers.
In addition to these practice areas, our network attorneys handle a wide range of injuries resulting from pedestrian accidents, including:
Broken bones: Pedestrians can suffer broken bones in accidents, which often require extensive medical treatment and rehabilitation.Â
Brain injuries: Traumatic brain injuries can have long-term consequences, affecting your cognitive abilities, motor functions, and overall quality of life.Â
Spinal cord injuries: Spinal cord damage can result in partial or complete paralysis, requiring extensive medical care and lifelong support.Â
Psychological trauma: Pedestrian accidents can cause significant psychological trauma, such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, and depression.Â
Wrongful death: Tragically, pedestrian accidents can result in the devastating loss of a loved one’s life, leaving families shattered and grieving. Our experienced network attorneys understand the profound impact of wrongful death in pedestrian accidents and dedicates ourselves to seeking justice for the deceased and their families. They will tirelessly pursue compensation for the immense emotional pain, funeral expenses, loss of financial support, and the irreplaceable void left behind by the untimely death of your family member.
The lawyers we work with have used their experience, resources, and dedication to obtain successful recoveries for their clients, even when handling complex cases. Our experienced network attorneys can guide you through each step of the legal process, providing you with the individual attention that your case deserves so that you receive the compensation you need to recover from your injuries and move forward with your life.
After a pedestrian accident, various factors can affect the compensation you recover. These factors include the severity of your injuries, medical expenses, lost income, and pain and suffering. Your attorney will fight to ensure you receive the maximum compensation you deserve.
Your legal team will assess your case, gather all relevant evidence, and work with medical experts, accident reconstruction specialists, and other professionals to build a strong claim for you. They will pursue compensation for medical bills, rehabilitation costs, lost income, emotional distress, and other damages resulting from the accident.
Remember, time is of the essence in personal injury cases. Consult an attorney from our network as soon as possible to protect your rights and maximize your chances of receiving fair compensation.
One might mistakenly downplay a pedestrian accident, especially if a slowly moving vehicle struck them. Many believe that they would walk away unscathed from such an incident. However, whiplash symptoms often appear days after the accident. While initially seeming minor, such injuries can lead to long-term complications affecting the rest of your life.
Severe pedestrian injuries often occur in these accidents, including brain and spinal cord injuries. Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) occur in pedestrian accidents far more frequently than most people realize. Similarly, spinal cord injuries (SCIs) are common. Crucially, the symptoms of these more serious injuries can take weeks to manifest after a pedestrian accident.
No matter the nature of the injuries sustained in your pedestrian accident, you can recover full and fair compensation for another’s negligence. An experienced pedestrian accident attorney from TopDog Law’s network can accurately value your claim. Your compensation should cover not just your medical bills and expenses, but also any additional damages associated with the accident, including your pain and suffering.
Dealing with insurance companies can present non-lawyers with incredible challenges. They primarily aim to minimize their financial liability, often at the expense of accident victims. However, the attorneys we work with have decades of experience in negotiating with insurance companies, and they know their tactics.
Our network attorneys are skilled in handling insurance claims and will work tirelessly to protect your interests. They will gather all the necessary evidence, document your injuries and damages, and build a strong case to support your claim for fair compensation. If the insurance company refuses to offer a reasonable settlement, they are fully prepared to take your case to court and advocate for you in front of a judge and jury.
We offer a free, no-obligation consultation to discuss your pedestrian accident case. During this consultation, we’ll evaluate whether you have a valid personal injury claim and, if so, connect you with an experienced attorney in your area. They will further assess your case, explain your legal rights, and discuss how they may help you.
Above all, protect your health and legal rights.
Here are some important actions to consider:
Seek medical attention: Make your well-being the top priority. Seek immediate medical attention, even if you believe your injuries are minor. Some injuries may not immediately appear, and prompt medical care can prevent complications and document your injuries.
Follow your treatment plan: Follow the treatment plan prescribed by your healthcare professionals. This includes attending follow-up appointments, undergoing recommended therapies, and taking prescribed medications. Adhering to your treatment plan demonstrates your commitment to your recovery and strengthens your case.
Keep records and receipts: Maintain thorough documentation of all medical expenses related to the accident, including hospital bills, medication costs, rehabilitation expenses, and any other out-of-pocket expenses. Keep a record of your travel expenses for medical appointments and any other relevant documentation in your case. If possible, take photos or videos of the accident scene, your injuries, and any property damage.
Obtain a police report: If the accident involved a motor vehicle, contact the police so they can file an accident report. The report will provide important details about the incident, such as the date, time, location, weather conditions, and a description of what happened, and may serve as valuable evidence in your claim.
Consult an attorney: Contacting an attorney from our network of experienced personal injury attorneys will protect your rights and maximize your chances of obtaining fair compensation. Our network attorneys will guide you through the legal process, handle communication with the insurance company, and fight for the compensation you deserve.
We encourage you to bring all your documentation to your lawyer’s office during your free consultation. Your attorney will review your case, answer your questions, and provide you with an honest assessment of your legal options.

What do you need to pay up front? Actually, nothing at all. The legal professionals in our network operate on a contingency basis, so they receive their compensation only if you receive yours.
Moreover, they take care of all the initial expenses, covering the costs of hiring investigators and other expert witnesses who will provide testimony in your favor.
