What to Do If You Were Hit as a Pedestrian

Time matters. Here’s what we recommend if you or a loved one was injured:

  1. Get medical help immediately, even if injuries seem minor.
  2. Avoid giving recorded statements to the other driver’s insurance company.
  3. Call a lawyer who understands pedestrian injury cases and knows how to take on insurance companies.

Why Pedestrian Accident Cases Are Unique

Unlike drivers, pedestrians don’t have the protection of a vehicle in a crash. That means injuries tend to be more serious, and the impact on daily life can last much longer.

You may be entitled to compensation for:

  • Medical bills and future care
  • Lost wages or reduced earning ability
  • Pain and suffering
  • Permanent disability or scarring

Results That Speak for Themselves

We’ve fought for people hit in crosswalks, by distracted drivers, and even by public vehicles—and we’ve won. Here are just a few examples:

  • $2.625 Million Settlement – Our client was struck by a bus while crossing at a location marked “no pedestrian crossing,” leading to a below-the-knee amputation. We fought for the full value of what was lost—not just the medical bills, but the lifelong impact.
  • $400,000 Settlement – A pedestrian was hit by a police car while crossing the street, resulting in a broken leg. We made sure they weren’t just another line item on an insurance report.
  • $300,000 Settlement – Another pedestrian client, seriously injured when struck by a car, secured a substantial recovery to help cover long-term recovery costs.

Our firm has also earned national recognition for case results, including a Top 25 Verdict in Pennsylvania for a motor vehicle crash that caused traumatic injuries to a passenger—underscoring our ability to litigate complex vehicle-related injury claims.

We Understand the Law—and the Streets of Pennsylvania

Pedestrian safety laws in Pennsylvania are often misunderstood or ignored. Drivers may fail to yield, run red lights, or drive distracted—all of which can cause catastrophic harm to people on foot.

When you work with us, we’ll investigate whether the driver broke any traffic laws, and whether distractions like texting contributed to your crash. We know how to uncover the facts that insurance companies don’t want you to find.
