PEDESTRIAN INJURY CLAIMS
Hit by a Vehicle While Walking? Fight for Your Rights.
Pedestrians have zero protection against a multi-ton vehicle. Drivers often fail to yield at crosswalks or drive distracted. Barreto Law Firm fights to get you full compensation for your injuries.
SEVERE CONSEQUENCES
Common Pedestrian Crash Injuries.
Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI)
Being thrown to the pavement can cause concussions, skull fractures, and permanent cognitive damage.
Internal Organ Damage
The force of impact can cause severe internal bleeding and organ damage requiring emergency surgery.
Spinal Cord & Paralysis
Neck and back injuries that can lead to partial or complete paralysis, permanently changing a victim's life.
Broken Bones & Fractures
Legs, arms, and pelvises are highly susceptible to shattering upon impact with a vehicle.
Pedestrian Crashes Cause Catastrophic Injuries.
Without the steel frame, airbags, or seatbelts that drivers enjoy, pedestrians absorb the full force of a collision. This often leads to severe, life-altering injuries that require extensive medical treatment and long-term care.
Why Pedestrian Accidents Happen.
Driver inattention and a failure to respect crosswalks are the leading causes of pedestrian injuries.
Failure to yield at crosswalks and intersections
Distracted driving (texting or using a phone)
Speeding in residential or high-traffic areas
Running red lights or stop signs
Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs
Backing up without checking blind spots
