Pedestrian accidents are usually suffered by innocent bystanders vunerable to moving traffic. Whether downtown or in a leafy neighborhood, these victims can suffer terrible injuries by motorists, sometimes driving at high speeds. The U.S. Department of Transportation reports that roughly 70,000 pedestrians suffer varying levels of injuries each year. In 2009, Greater Louisville, Kentucky was named one of the most dangerous cities for pedestrians walking within city limits.
For those who have suffered this type of accident, our experienced lawyers can help. Injuries from broken bones to paralysis could create a lenghty recovery time. In fighting for your rights in court, we can work toward the cash settlement that you could be owed.
