Springfield Pedestrian Accident Lawyer

Millions Recovered for Our Clients Across Missouri

One of the first and most important rules of the road that drivers are taught is that pedestrians have the right of way. What this means may not always be immediately clear, but generally speaking, it requires that drivers yield to pedestrians who are crossing the road in front of them.

At a minimum, every driver should take precautions to ensure that he or she does not strike a defenseless pedestrian with a motor vehicle since the consequences can be devastating. Unfortunately, each year there are thousands of negligent drivers who fail to uphold this essential responsibility, and pedestrians suffer serious injury or death as a result.

If you have been struck by a negligent or reckless driver, or have tragically lost a loved one who was killed in such a collision, then you may be entitled to pursue a legal action against the responsible party.

Factors in Missouri Pedestrian Accidents

Pedestrians are incredibly vulnerable because they do not have anything to protect them from the impact of a vehicle and the subsequent impacts with the ground or other objects. Even at slow to moderate speeds, fractured bones and traumatic brain injuries are distinctly possible outcomes of being struck by a car.

While circumstances surrounding every pedestrian accident are unique, there are a number of factors that are common to many such incidents, including:

  • Excessive speed
  • Intoxicated driving
  • Distracted driving
  • Failure to yield
  • Aggressive and reckless driving
  • Intentional malice

Let us help you to seek the financial compensation that you deserve from a negligent driver who has left you with expensive medical bills and extensive injuries.
