FAQ: How common are pedestrian accidents in California?

In a state like California, with relatively good weather year-round, pedestrian activity near roadways is daily. Our personal injury attorneys in Stockton have represented clients in accidents for over thirty years and are highly familiar with how pedestrian accidents happen and the damages that result.

Common Pedestrian Injuries

Without the protection of the body of a vehicle, not to mention safety features like belts and airbags, it’s doubtful a person can be involved in an accident without some injury and, very often, serious or catastrophic injuries. Some of the most common pedestrian injuries that our legal staff encounter include:

Broken bones
Foot and leg injuries
Internal organ damage
Knee injuries
Lacerations, cuts, and bruising
Neck injuries
Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)

Anytime a pedestrian comes in contact with a moving vehicle, the injuries have the potential to be catastrophic. This list is incomplete.

Maximizing Compensation for Damages in Pedestrian Accidents

When you’ve been injured due to someone else’s negligence, a key goal of your lawyer is to fight for the maximum compensation possible to cover all your losses. This includes not only your immediate medical bills but also lost wages from time off work, future medical care and rehabilitation costs, and compensation for any long-term disabilities. When you hire an attorney, they’ll closely examine all the damage you’ve suffered. This way, they can build a solid case to get you the best possible settlement or verdict. That way, you can get the money you need to recover and get back on your feet.
