Pedestrian Accident Claims

Pedestrians are among the most vulnerable road users, and accidents involving vehicles can lead to serious injuries with life-changing consequences. You may be entitled to compensation if you’ve been injured in a pedestrian accident due to a driver’s negligence, poor road conditions, or any other factor.

Types of Pedestrian Accidents

Pedestrian accidents can occur in various ways, often leading to serious injuries. Some of the most common types include:

Hit-and-Run Accidents:

When a driver strikes a pedestrian and leaves the scene without stopping or providing assistance.

Pedestrian Crossing Incident:

This happens when a driver fails to stop at a pedestrian crossing, often due to distraction, speeding, or reckless driving.

Pavement or Sidewalk Accidents:

When a vehicle mounts the pavement, putting pedestrians at risk of serious injury.

Parking Lot Accidents:

Drivers reversing or manoeuvring in car parks without noticing pedestrians can cause significant harm.

Reckless or Speeding Driver Accidents:

High-speed collisions can be devastating for pedestrians, often resulting in life-changing injuries.

Drunk or Drug-Impaired Driver Accidents:

Impaired drivers have slower reaction times and poor judgment, increasing the risk of hitting pedestrians.

Poorly Maintained Roads or Pavements:

Uneven pavements and potholes can cause pedestrians to trip and fall, leading to injuries.

Cyclist Collisions:

Pedestrians can also be injured by reckless cyclists or e-scooter users, especially in busy urban areas.

Whatever the circumstances, if you were harmed by a driver or road user, we’ll fight for the justice you deserve.
