The volume, mix and pace of Bay Area traffic can be a problem for anyone in any vehicle, but pedestrians — like bicyclists and motorcyclists — are especially vulnerable to reckless drivers. People walking in crosswalks, standing on sidewalks or jogging roadside in San Francisco are victimized all too frequently, and we take decisive legal action when a negligent driver or dangerous roadway is the cause.
Serious, life-changing injuries almost always result when a car, truck, bus or other vehicle hits a pedestrian. Recovering the compensation you need to cope with medical costs, lost wages and other harm is far from automatic in these cases, however — even if you were struck in a crosswalk. Please contact the San Francisco Pedestrian Accident attorneys now if you or a family member has been seriously injured in a pedestrian accident.
Experience Across the Spectrum of Pedestrian Accidents and Injuries
Our pedestrian accident case successes cover a wide range of circumstances, showing our resourcefulness in accident investigation and case-building. We have successfully represented clients in high-value claims against:
- Negligent drivers and their insurance companies
- The City and County of San Francisco — and other government entities — in cases involving unsafe intersections or negligence by a MUNI or other public transit system
- Trucking and taxi cab companies
- Businesses that fail to address property conditions that create an unacceptable injury risk for pedestrians
We Protect and Pursue Our Clients' Rights, Every Step of the Way
Whether your case involves injury to a child or an adult, and wherever it occurred in Northern California, you need a law firm committed to thorough investigation. "Dart out" claims by negligent drivers and their insurance companies are common defenses, and witness accounts and professional reconstruction of the accident could make all the difference for you.
