We see frequent pedestrian accident injuries in and around Pittsburgh. We know when, where, and why accidents are most likely to occur. We identify the liable party and hold them accountable. We can help you build a case based on: 

• A distracted driver
• A driver who failed to yield when turning
• A motorist who hit you in the crosswalk, especially at intersections on roads like South Park Road, Library Road and Corrigan Drive 
• A speeding driver
• A drunk or impaired driver
• A motorist driving recklessly or aggressively
• A drowsy driver
• Drivers who run red lights and stop signs

Proving Liability is Crucial in Pedestrian Accident Cases

To hold an at-fault driver accountable for their recklessness or carelessness behind the wheel, we must gather evidence to demonstrate what happened. We need to show:

• They owed you a duty of care, generally stemming from certain traffic laws
• They breached this duty by violating those traffic laws
• This caused your collisions
• You suffered harm

The available evidence varies widely in these cases, but we know where to look and how to preserve any time-sensitive evidence that might not be available later. This could include: 

• Video of the accident
• Photos from the scene
• The crash report filed by responding officers
• Eyewitness statements
• Accident reconstruction
• Medical records
• Expert testimony
• Documentation of damages

Our team uses this evidence to negotiate or litigate these cases, fighting for the fair compensation and accountability our clients deserve after a serious injury accident. Get started today by letting our team evaluate your options during a free consultation.
