Pedestrian Accident Lawyers – Seattle & WA State

On average, a thousand pedestrians a day are injured by negligent drivers, suffering broken bones, paralysis, brain injuries, coma and death. Negligent and unsafe drivers must be held responsible for the harm their actions inflict on others.

According to statistics compiled in the United States in 2004:

  • A pedestrian was injured in a traffic-related accident every 5 minutes.
  • Nearly 5,900 pedestrians were killed in traffic-related accidents.
  • Males accounted for two-thirds of all pedestrian injuries.

Children ages 4 and younger account for almost 40% of all pedestrian-injury deaths. It is imperative that parents teach their children how to safely cross the street, and to beware standing to the rear of parked vehicles.

Make sure that your child wears reflective clothing or carries a flashlight when walking at night, especially on Halloween, the one day a year with the greatest pedestrian accident totals on average.

If you have been injured in an accident of this type, act immediately and contact a qualified legal professional. Do not sign any papers, or discuss the incident with anyone until you have met with a lawyer.
