What’s Your Case Worth? 844-576-2116

Phoenix is a lovely place to walk, whether you’re going downtown, passing by a school, or simply taking a stroll. But when a driver ignores the rules or gets distracted, a peaceful walk may turn into a trip in an ambulance. If that’s what happened to you or someone you care about, having a Phoenix pedestrian accident lawyer from the TopDog Law Personal Injury Lawyers network helps.
A local attorney looks at what happened, figures out who’s at fault, and goes after the money you’re owed. This may include medical bills, lost income, and pain caused by the crash. The person walking never deserves to be left holding the bill when someone else messes up behind the wheel.
It costs absolutely nothing to see if you have a case
Any time a person on foot is hit by a motor vehicle—whether it’s a car, truck, motorcycle, or even a bicycle—it may be considered a pedestrian accident. Some situations happen more often than others.
Here are a few examples:
Each of these crashes leaves someone hurt, often severely. A Phoenix pedestrian accident attorney works to collect details like police reports, witness statements, and traffic camera footage to build a strong case.
Being struck while walking may result in serious injuries, even at lower speeds. Pedestrians don’t have any protection around them—no seatbelts, airbags, or steel frames—which makes crashes more dangerous.
Some injuries lawyers in Phoenix see often include:
Many people need months of care and can’t return to work immediately. A local lawyer from the TopDog Law network seeks damages to cover that time off and the long-term effects the injury brings.
According to the Arizona Department of Transportation, state law gives pedestrians the right-of-way in many situations, especially in marked crosswalks. That means drivers must stop and wait, but not every driver follows the rules.
When a Phoenix pedestrian accident lawyer reviews a crash, they may find fault with:
In some cases, more than one party shares the blame. For example, a city agency might have failed to fix a broken traffic light, contributing to a crash. Experienced local attorneys know how to investigate these kinds of situations.
A Phoenix pedestrian accident attorney helps by putting the pressure on the at-fault party and their insurance company, not on you. From start to finish, your attorney handles the paperwork, talks with adjusters, and pushes for fair payment.
Here’s what they typically do:
Most of the time, these cases get resolved without going to court. But if the at-fault driver or their insurer refuses to take responsibility, your lawyer will be ready to push the case further.
Not every crash happens when a person is walking perfectly within the law. Some people cross without using a crosswalk or step out into traffic. Even then, a driver who could have avoided the crash may still be partially responsible.
Under state law, if pedestrians share some blame, they might still recover part of the money owed, just less, based on how much fault is assigned.
For instance, if someone is 20% responsible for a crash, they may still recover 80% of their damages. That’s why it’s valuable to contact TopDog Law Personal Injury Lawyers to have your case reviewed.Â
Insurance companies don’t make money by writing big checks. After a pedestrian crash, their adjuster may act friendly, but that doesn’t mean they’re on your side. They might:
Don’t fall for it. A Phoenix pedestrian accident lawyer knows how these companies operate and deals with them directly, so you don’t have to.
In most cases, Arizona gives people two years from the crash date to file a lawsuit. That’s under the Arizona statute of limitations for personal injury. Miss that deadline, and you lose the right to ask for payment in court.
But don’t wait until the last minute. Evidence disappears fast. A Phoenix pedestrian accident attorney acts quickly to preserve what’s needed to prove your case.
A lawyer in Phoenix will usually seek damages for:
They may also ask for future costs, like surgeries that haven’t happened yet or therapy that might last for years.
Waiting won’t help. The driver’s insurance company is already working to reduce its payout. They might even try to blame the person who got hit. A Phoenix pedestrian accident lawyer from TopDog Law’s network knows the local laws, understands how to build a case, and will push for a fair result.
