Los Angeles Pedestrian Accidents
Pedestrians are among the most vulnerable crash victims on our state’s roadways. The reason for this is fairly obvious as pedestrians have no protection from the force and impact of a collision. Being injured in a pedestrian can result in serious and life-changing injuries, including broken bones, head injuries, neck and spinal cord trauma and more.
The cause of every pedestrian accident must be carefully investigated in order to determine who should be held responsible. In many instances, the driver is at fault for failing to see or yield to a pedestrian. Due to the fact that many pedestrian collisions lead to serious injuries, it is important to seek legal advice at the soonest possible time if you have been injured in a crash.
