Clearwater Pedestrian Accident Attorney
Protecting Your Right to Fair Compensation
Drivers of motor vehicles are legally obligated to practice safe and responsible driving behaviors that keep others on the road safe and free from preventable harm. This duty applies to all drivers, passengers, motorcycle riders, and pedestrians. Given the absence of any physical protection and the increased risks for injuries and catastrophic damage, pedestrians face considerable dangers when navigating public roads, sidewalks, and intersections. At Cope, Zebro & Crawford, P.L., our Clearwater personal injury lawyer has spent years advocating for the rights of injured victims, and our firm is prepared to protect injured pedestrians and their right to recover compensation for any physical, emotional and / or financial damages they incurred. Pedestrian accidents involving vehicle collisions are frequently caused by driver inattention, negligence, or when drivers disobey traffic laws. Some common examples include:
- Driver distraction, including texting while driving
- Drunk driving accidents
- Road departures
- Collisions in parking lots
- Drivers failing to yield or give right of way
- Drivers turning right at red lights
- Drivers disobeying traffic signs and signals
There are also many incidents in which pedestrians using the Pinellas Trail, Suncoast Trail, or Upper Tampa Bay Trail are hit by motor vehicles. Such accidents are considered pedestrian accidents, and injured victims still retain the right to pursue compensation. If you or your loved one has suffered an injury in a pedestrian accident that you believe to have been caused by another, schedule a free case evaluation with a member of our legal team to learn more about the viability of your claim and the ways in which our firm can be of assistance.
