California law requires drivers to yield to pedestrians in marked crosswalks and at intersections. When they fail to do so, they are liable for the injuries that result. At Kashani Law, we investigate every case thoroughly, reviewing police reports, traffic camera footage, and witness testimony to prove negligence. We also consult with accident reconstruction experts to demonstrate how a driver’s reckless actions caused the crash. By presenting strong evidence, we hold drivers and their insurance companies accountable for the harm they cause.

Injuries and Long-Term Impact of Pedestrian Accidents

The injuries sustained in pedestrian accidents are often life-altering. Traumatic brain injuries can impair memory, speech, and mobility. Spinal cord injuries may result in partial or total paralysis. Even less severe injuries, such as broken bones or torn ligaments, can lead to months of recovery and permanent physical limitations. Many victims also experience lasting psychological trauma, including depression, anxiety, and fear of walking near traffic again. Our firm ensures that claims account for not only immediate medical costs but also the long-term physical, emotional, and financial impact of these devastating accidents.

Holding Negligent Drivers Responsible

Steps to Take After a Pedestrian Accident

After a pedestrian accident, taking the right steps can protect both your health and your legal rights. Always call 911 and request medical attention, even if your injuries seem minor, since many conditions worsen over time. Gather evidence at the scene if possible, including photos of the vehicle, roadway, and your injuries. Collect the driver’s information and any witness statements. Do not speak to insurance adjusters before consulting an attorney, as they may try to minimize your claim. Contacting Kashani Law immediately ensures that evidence is preserved and your case is built on a strong foundation.

Victims of pedestrian accidents in California may be entitled to recover substantial compensation.

For families who have lost a loved one in a pedestrian accident, wrongful death damages may provide financial relief for funeral costs and loss of companionship.
