Pedestrian Accidents

Los Angeles Personal Injury Lawyers

Car, Truck, Motorcycle, Bus, Pedestrian, Bicycle Accidents

Collisions between cars and people shouldn't happen; drivers are expected to pay attention and avoid people. In a pedestrian accident, even if the pedestrian is not in a crosswalk— such as a child who chases a ball into the street — the injured person is often able to obtain compensation for injuries.

At the Southern California personal injury law firm of Lederer & Nojima LLP, we work to protect the rights of people who have been hit by a car, bus or truck. To schedule a free initial consultation, contact us today.

Our vast experience in all aspects of pedestrian accidents has given us an understanding of the relevant issues:

• Rules, laws, and regulations pertaining to pedestrian/bus accidents in crosswalks
• Drunk driver and other human error factors
• Applicable laws pertaining to pedestrian injuries or deaths involving commercial trucks, vans, taxis, or other service vehicles
• Insurance coverage, including the interplay of health insurance and medical payments for pedestrian victims affected by auto, truck, and motorcycle insurance coverage
• Legal procedures that become necessary when the injured pedestrian is physically incapacitated and faces short to long term partial or total disability, including powers of attorney, guardianships, special needs trusts, and interaction with creditors.

Generally, The Sooner We Start Working, The More Successful We Will Be

The sooner our lawyers become involved in a pedestrian accident investigation and case preparation, the more likely it is that we will be successful in obtaining maximum compensation for victims.

By getting involved early, we can recommend the most highly qualified physicians. These authoritative health care providers offer hope for improvement as well as the respect of insurers who may be required to compensate the injured. Additionally, because of our close working relationships with these doctors, we are often able to help our clients secure medical treatment before their legal claims are resolved.

As Former Insurance Defense Lawyers, We Understand How They Work

Our previous experience as insurance defense attorneys has given us skills and insight that translate to proper compensation for our clients who have suffered head injuries, spinal cord injuries, or other serious physical harm. We handle wrongful death claims and lawsuits for people who have lost loved ones in crosswalk or hit and run pedestrian accidents throughout Southern California.

Contact us to learn how our experience and track record of success can translate to relief for you and your family after a pedestrian accident in the San Fernando Valley, the South Bay, or anywhere in the Southern California area.
