In the wake of a pedestrian accident, you or a loved one might be grappling with physical pain, emotional distress, and mounting financial burdens. Such unforeseen incidents can dramatically shift the trajectory of your life and the well-being of your family.Â
Amid the chaos, medical expenses and unforeseen costs can add up quickly. It’s essential that you receive the compensation you rightly deserve. Insurance companies might approach you with an enticing settlement, promising immediate relief. However, in these trying times, it’s crucial that before you agree to any offer, consult with the seasoned Springfield pedestrian accident attorneys at TopDog Law.

Nationally, pedestrian accidents are on the rise in many states, with Pennsylvania being one of them. In one recent year, this danger amounted to 186 reported pedestrian fatalities. In townships such as Springfield, negligent behaviors such as speeding and drunk driving pose significant risks. Researchers estimate that high speeds contribute to at least 29% of all fatal pedestrian accidents.Â
While Springfield has made significant strides toward improving pedestrian safety in the community through better infrastructure and awareness, these efforts alone cannot negate the risk of accidents when drivers choose to willingly endanger the lives of others. For these reasons, we at TopDog Law stand with accident victims in seeking accountability and justice for those who have been affected by such tragic events.Â
In Springfield, Pennsylvania, the pedestrian accident laws follow the general principles of traffic laws and personal injury laws. An individual who breaches these laws and injures a pedestrian may face both criminal and civil consequences, depending on the specifics of the case.
For a pedestrian to file a claim for damages, Pennsylvania law stipulates a statute of limitations of two years from the date of the injury. This means that any legal action aimed at pursuing recovery for injuries sustained in a pedestrian accident must commence within this two-year timeframe. Claims initiated beyond this period may not be considered by the court.
In terms of liability, if a driver injures a pedestrian, you can hold them accountable for your economic and non-economic losses. Â
The negligent driver may also encounter criminal charges if the pedestrian accident results in a fatality. Apart from drivers, other entities can be held responsible for pedestrian incidents. These could include but are not limited to, the municipality if malfunctioning traffic signals or missing stop signs contributed to the accident.
The interpretation and enforcement of these laws may differ slightly from one jurisdiction to another within Pennsylvania. Therefore, always consult with a skilled attorney to thoroughly understand the complexities involved in pedestrian accident laws and liability in your specific case.
Given the vulnerable position of pedestrians, accidents can inflict profound, often life-transforming injuries. We’re here to stand by your side in seeking the justice you deserve.
Pedestrian accidents can lead to a wide range of injuries, some of which can be life-altering. Common injuries include:
Â
The repercussions of such injuries extend beyond the immediate physical damage, frequently involving prolonged medical care, recovery processes, and notable shifts in one’s lifestyle.
As a result, the compensation pursued should capture the comprehensive scope of these impacts. Since every case has its distinct characteristics, and injuries and resulting compensations can differ widely, a proficient attorney is essential. They can thoroughly assess every facet of your case, guaranteeing that the compensation sought genuinely represents all your losses, present and anticipated.
If a pedestrian is injured due to another’s negligence, they may be eligible for compensation to address the financial and personal consequences of their injuries. These may include:
