When a Driver Fails to Yield — We Step In
Whether you’re crossing the street, walking through a parking lot, or simply out for a run, you deserve to feel safe. But when drivers are distracted, speeding, or simply not paying attention, an ordinary walk can turn into a life-altering tragedy.
At Palmetto State Injury Lawyers, we represent injured pedestrians and grieving families with the compassion, skill, and determination they deserve. We fight to hold negligent drivers accountable and secure the compensation victims need to move forward.
How Pedestrian Accidents Happen
Pedestrian accidents can happen anywhere—at crosswalks, intersections, store parking lots, residential streets, or even sidewalks. They are almost always the result of driver negligence, including:
- Distracted driving
- Speeding through intersections or parking lots
- Failing to yield the right of way to pedestrians
- Unsafe or illegal turns
- Failure to watch for children, joggers, or individuals with mobility challenges
- Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs
Every case is different. That’s why we conduct a thorough investigation into how your accident happened, gather evidence, interview witnesses, and build a strong case to prove both causation and liability.
Severe Injuries Require Serious Representation
Pedestrians have no protection in the event of a crash. Even a low-speed impact can cause devastating injuries. We routinely represent pedestrian accident victims suffering from:
- Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI)
- Broken bones and fractures
- Internal organ damage and internal bleeding
- Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
- Permanent scarring and disfigurement
- Emotional trauma, including PTSD, anxiety, and depression
We don’t just look at your medical bills. We take a holistic approach to your recovery, fighting for compensation that reflects the full impact of your injuries—physically, emotionally, and financially.
Fighting for Families After Fatal Pedestrian Accidents
We handle these cases with the compassion your family deserves, while relentlessly pursuing justice on your behalf.
What Compensation Can You Recover?
Depending on the circumstances, you may be entitled to compensation for:
- Medical expenses (past and future)
- Lost income and diminished earning capacity
- Pain, suffering, and emotional distress
- Permanent disability or disfigurement
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Wrongful death damages (in fatal cases)
We’ll fight for every dollar you deserve.
