Pedestrian Accidents

Protecting Your Rights, Pursuing Justice

When a Walk Turns into a Tragedy, We’re Here to Help.

Walking should be one of the safest ways to get around, but reckless drivers, unsafe road conditions, and distracted motorists make pedestrian accidents far too common. When a pedestrian is hit by a car, the injuries are often catastrophic—leading to lifelong consequences for the victim and their family.

At Rory Law, we stand with injured pedestrians, fighting to ensure they receive justice, compensation, and the support they need to rebuild their lives. Whether you were hit in a crosswalk, on a sidewalk, in a parking lot, or anywhere else you had the right to be, we are here to be the bridge between your pain and the justice you deserve.

COMMON CAUSES OF PEDESTRIAN ACCIDENTS

Pedestrian accidents often occur due to driver negligence, poor road design, or lack of pedestrian safety measures. We handle cases involving:

  1. Distracted Driving – Texting, talking on the phone, or using in-car technology.
  2. Speeding & Reckless Driving – Drivers who fail to slow down in pedestrian zones.
  3. Failure to Yield – Ignoring stop signs, crosswalks, or traffic signals.
  4. Drunk or Impaired Driving – Alcohol and drug use impairing reaction times.
  5. Hit-and-Run Accidents – Drivers fleeing the scene, leaving victims helpless.
  6. Poor Road Conditions – Lack of sidewalks, broken crosswalk signals, or poorly lit streets.
  7. Rideshare & Commercial Vehicle Accidents – Pedestrians hit by Uber, Lyft, delivery, or trucking vehicles.

Who Is Liable in a Pedestrian Accident?

Liability in pedestrian accidents isn’t always straightforward. We investigate all responsible parties, including:

    1. Negligent Drivers – Whether due to speeding, distraction, or failure to yield.
    2. Municipalities & Government Entities – If poor road design or broken signals played a role.
    3. Commercial & Rideshare Companies – If a delivery driver, Uber, or Lyft was involved.
    4. Bicyclists or Other Pedestrians – In rare cases, other road users may share fault.

    We conduct a thorough investigation to hold the right parties accountable and maximize your compensation.

    Compensation FOR PEDESTRIAN ACCIDENT VICTIMS

    Pedestrian injuries often require extensive medical care, leading to financial burdens for victims and their families. We fight for compensation covering:

    • Medical Bills – Hospital stays, surgeries, rehabilitation, and long-term care.
      Lost Wages & Future Income – If you can’t work due to your injuries.
      Pain & Suffering – Emotional trauma, PTSD, and reduced quality of life.
    • Permanent Disability & Home Modifications – If you need mobility assistance.
      Wrongful Death Benefits – For families who lost a loved one in a pedestrian crash.

    Our goal is to secure your future, ensuring you have the resources to heal, recover, and rebuild your life.
