Protecting pedestrians injured by negligent drivers

Pedestrians are among the most vulnerable people on the road. When a driver is distracted, speeding, impaired, or simply not paying attention, a pedestrian can suffer devastating injuries in an instant. If you were struck by a vehicle while walking in Philadelphia, you may be entitled to compensation for your medical bills, lost income, and pain and suffering.

Our firm represents pedestrians injured in crosswalks, intersections, parking lots, sidewalks, and residential neighborhoods. We understand how insurers attempt to unfairly shift blame onto pedestrians, and we work to hold negligent drivers fully accountable.
