Florida Pedestrian Accident Lawyers
Injured in a Pedestrian vs. Motor Vehicle Collision in Florida?
Pedestrians have no protection against a moving vehicle.
​
When a driver fails to yield, runs a red light, speeds through a crosswalk, or drives distracted, the injuries can be catastrophic. Pedestrian accidents often result in life-altering trauma and permanent consequences.
​
If you were struck by a vehicle anywhere in Florida, you deserve serious legal representation.
​
Schwartz Injury Law represents injured pedestrians throughout the State of Florida. We prepare every case as if it will go to trial.


Drivers Have a Duty to Protect Pedestrians
Florida law requires drivers to operate their vehicles safely and to yield to pedestrians in marked crosswalks and other designated areas.
Unfortunately, many pedestrian accidents occur because drivers:
​
-
Fail to yield at crosswalks
-
Distracted driving
-
Speed through residential neighborhoods
-
Ignore traffic signals
-
Make unsafe turns
-
Drive under the influence
-
Fail to check blind spots
When drivers disregard pedestrian safety, the consequences can be devastating.
Serious Injuries in Pedestrian Accidents
Because pedestrians lack physical protection, even moderate-speed collisions can cause catastrophic injuries, including:
​
-
Traumatic brain injuries
-
Skull fractures
-
Spinal cord injuries
-
Multiple fractures
-
Internal organ damage
-
Severe lacerations
-
Permanent disability
-
Wrongful death
Recovery may require surgeries, extended hospitalization, rehabilitation, and long-term medical care.
Our responsibility is to pursue compensation that reflects the full scope of harm.
What Compensation May Be Available?
Depending on the facts of your case, you may be entitled to compensation for:
​
-
Emergency and ongoing medical care
-
Rehabilitation and therapy
-
Lost wages
-
Reduced earning capacity
-
Pain and suffering
-
Emotional trauma
-
Permanent impairment
-
Wrongful death damages
Insurance companies often attempt to minimize pedestrian injury claims. We build cases strategically to pursue full recovery.
