Pedestrian Injuries

As a pedestrian injury lawyer and running accident attorney in Austin, Texas, I know there is often confusion regarding these types of cases. Pedestrians are the most vulnerable potential victims of driver negligence. With the increased popularity of walking and running fro exercise, along with the necessity of walking near busy streets and intersections during the workday or while shopping, it is more important than ever that pedestrians be careful and never assume that drivers are watching out for them.

As a pedestrian accident attorney, I believe that injury victims need to take steps to protect themselves after an accident. When driver inattention leads to a pedestrian accident, it is vital that the license plate information and vehicle description be recorded to hold the driver accountable in the case of a “hit and run”.  In any accident of this type, the name, address and phone number of any witnesses should be recorded.  The victim should always be examined by a physician to determine the extent of any injuries.  And, the police should be called to come investigate and prepare an official accident report. 

Finally, discuss your case with a personal injury attorney to learn how to protect your rights and preserve your claim. An accident attorney will help you evaluate your case and tell you how to protect your case.
