Orlando Pedestrian Accident Attorney
Living in the sunshine state certainly has its fair share of perks; beautiful sunny days, warm and welcoming air, lots of outdoor activities and plenty of people partaking in them. Along with this, and the current state of our economy, more and more people are taking to foot or bicycle as a means of transportation, especially during the cooler fall, winter and spring months. With more individuals partaking in pedestrian activities comes more opportunity for unfortunate accidents to occur. Knowing where to turn if you get injured while walking, jogging, running or bicycling can mean the difference in the stress level involved in the accident and a number of damages you recover. I have been working as an Orlando pedestrian accident attorney for over 35 years now and I have the experience necessary to approach these types of cases the way they must be handled.
Pedestrian Accident Facts
Approximately 5,000 individuals partaking in pedestrian activities are killed and an additional 100,000 are injured from being hit by a car in the United States each year. Florida alone has witnessed over 500 deaths and 9,000 injuries in the past year. Often times these accidents are caused by negligent motor vehicle operators who ignore speed limits, stop signs, construction areas, and crosswalks. Knowing your rights when involved in this type of accident can be the difference between having to pay all of your own hospital bills or being compensated adequately for the injuries, lost wages, and pain and suffering you might sustain. It is important to find an experienced pedestrian accident lawyer to represent you in these cases. I offer all of my clients a free consultation when it comes to these types of unfortunate accidents.
