Boca Raton Pedestrian Accident Attorneys
Florida’s roads aren’t always designed with pedestrians in mind, leaving some areas unsafe for walkers. Hybrid cars are also dangerous, since you may not hear the quiet motor when the car is right behind you.
Florida is one of the most dangerous states for pedestrians according to The Governors Highway Safety Association. Miami-Dade and Broward Counties have some of the highest rates of pedestrian accidents in the country, despite the number of sidewalks and safety precautions added to the streets and highways.
Accidents Can Happen Quickly
Pedestrian accidents happen and without warning and can lead to serious and lifelong injuries. If you are hit by a car while walking, you do have legal options.
Pedestrian accidents often lead to injuries such as:
- Broken bones
- Lacerations
- Spinal cord injuries
- Concussion
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Disability/disfigurement
- Wrongful death
Recovering Compensation For Your Injuries
You have the right to seek full and fair recovery for:
- Medical/hospital bills
- Pain & Suffering
- Loss of wages (and future wages)
- Other associated expenses
Your top priority is taking care of yourself. Our experienced attorneys know how to protect your legal rights and help you get the compensation you need to heal and get back on your feet.
The statute of limitations is four years to file a claim (from the date of the accident) in the state of Florida. While this may seem like a long time, building a case takes time. It’s important to hire a personal injury lawyer and start your case early.
