Pedestrian Accidents

San Francisco Bay Area Pedestrian Accident Lawyers

The San Francisco Bay Area is full of paths cutting through the city streets and surrounding nature - perfect for people who like to walk or run. However, drivers of motor vehicles may fail to pay attention when crossing these paths, causing serious accidents and injuries. If you or someone you know is a pedestrian accident victim, contact an attorney immediately.

Contact Galine, Frye & Fitting, in San Mateo, California, to schedule a free consultation and case evaluation with a personal injury attorney. We will seek the maximum compensation for your medical bills, pain and suffering.

Walking at Night is Legal but Risky

Many people choose to walk or run in the evenings. Unfortunately, the lack of lighting may prevent a driver from seeing you, resulting in a serious accident. Despite what the driver may say, a pedestrian accident at night is not your fault. It is a driver's responsibility to watch out for pedestrians on the road.

Even Seemingly Minor Injuries May Be Grounds for a Lawsuit

Pedestrian accidents resulting in serious back injuries or wrongful death are obvious reasons to file a personal injury lawsuit. Too often, however, people neglect to seek damages for seemingly minor injuries. What seems like a minor injury at first could result in chronic aches and pains later.

If you were a pedestrian hit by a car, make sure a medical professional evaluates your condition right away. Broken bones, slipped disks or dislocated shoulders can require multiple surgeries. Our firm will help you recover damages for these costs.
