PEDESTRIAN ACCIDENT INJURY LAWYERS

SERVING ALL DELAWARE & NEW JERSEY PEDESTRIAN ACCIDENT INJURY CASES

Protecting pedestrians seriously injured by carless drivers.

Pedestrian accidents often cause serious or fatal injuries, usually due to driver negligence such as speeding, running signals, or failing to yield. Common defenses include jaywalking or crossing against the light. Successful claims require an attorney familiar with traffic laws and defenses. In Delaware, pedestrians are covered by the driver’s no-fault insurance, and by their own vehicle’s PIP coverage if they own a car.

Common Causes of Pedestrian Accidents

Pedestrian accidents often occur due to driver negligence, unsafe road conditions, or visibility issues. Understanding the most frequent causes can help prevent accidents and identify liability.

Awareness is the First Step to Safety:

Failure to Yield & Turning Collisions: Drivers not yielding at crosswalks or during turns.
Speeding & Impaired Driving: Excessive speed, alcohol, or drug impairment.
Distracted Driving: Inattention from phones or other distractions.
Parking Lot & Visibility Hazards: Back-up accidents and poor nighttime visibility.
Unsafe Crosswalks: Unmarked or poorly designed pedestrian crossings.

Injuries Resulting From Pedestrian Accidents

Head & Brain Injuries: Concussions, traumatic brain injuries, and skull fractures.
Spinal & Neck Injuries: Nerve damage, paralysis, or whiplash.
Broken Bones & Fractures: Arms, legs, ribs, and pelvis injuries.
Internal Injuries & Soft Tissue Damage: Organ damage, internal bleeding, and lacerations.
Fatal Injuries: Accidents resulting in death.

Pedestrian accidents can lead to a wide range of injuries, from minor cuts and bruises to severe brain, spinal, or internal trauma, and in some cases, fatal outcomes.

From Minor Bumps to Life-Changing Trauma:

Possible Compensation for Pedestrian Accident Victims

Medical Expenses: Emergency care, ongoing treatment, rehabilitation, and therapy.
Lost Wages & Reduced Earning Capacity: Compensation for missed work and future income loss.
Pain, Suffering & Emotional Distress: Damages for physical injuries and psychological impact.
Permanent Disability or Disfigurement: Compensation for lasting injuries or impairments.
Wrongful Death: Financial and emotional support for surviving family members.

Victims of pedestrian accidents may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, permanent injuries, and, in fatal cases, support for surviving family members.
