Should a pedestrian suffer an accident with a motor vehicle, the results are often catastrophic. A motor vehicle is a heavy piece of machinery that can travel at a high rate of speed. This leaves the pedestrian extremely vulnerable to injuries, even death.

An injury in a pedestrian-car accident can lead to weeks or months of recovery and physical therapy. This is especially frustrating when the accident was not your fault, and the motor vehicle operator acted in a negligent manner.

Consider hiring a pedestrian accident lawyer in Glendale, AZ such as Zanes Law, to protect your right to receive compensation in this type of case. Our Glendale injury attorneys will work to negotiate a fair settlement with the driver’s insurance company, ensuring you receive the damages to which you may be entitled. Call us today at (866) 499-8989 for a free consultation.

Proving the Negligence of the Driver

Proving a driver’s negligence is a key part of any lawsuit in a car-pedestrian accident. Negligence is a common cause of these types of accidents.

When the vehicle driver makes a mistake while driving that led directly to the accident but that could have been prevented, negligence likely has occurred.

A pedestrian accident lawyer in Glendale, AZ will use police reports, your description of the scene, witness descriptions of the scene, and other factors to build a case of negligence against the driver who struck you.

Signs of Negligence

Many different actions of a driver can lead to a finding of negligence, including:

  • Driving under the influence: Where a driver has taken drugs or drank alcohol, causing him or her to be unable to operate the motor vehicle as safely as possible.
  • Ignoring traffic signals: Where a driver does not obey simple traffic rules, such as stopping at stop signs or obeying traffic lights.
  • Failing to yield: Where a driver may not stop to allow a pedestrian to cross the street.
  • Distracted driving: Where the driver may not be following Arizona’s hands-free mode regarding smartphones, meaning he or she is not paying full attention to the road, leading to the crash.
  • Driving recklessly: Where the driver is speeding or swerving along the road, creating a dangerous situation for other drivers and for pedestrians.
  • Ignoring external conditions: Where a driver is driving too fast to be safe with the current weather or road conditions, leading to a loss of control and an accident.

Additional signs of driver negligence may have occurred in your case, other than what we have listed here. At Zanes Law, we know how to apply Arizona law to individual cases of pedestrian-car crashes, proving whether the driver was operating the vehicle in an unsafe manner. Call us as soon as possible at (866) 499-8989, and we will be ready to begin working on your case.

Injuries Pedestrians May Suffer When Struck By a Car

When a truck or car strikes a pedestrian, the person often will suffer initial injuries from the impact of the vehicle on the body. Additional injuries occur a second or two later when the person’s body hits the ground.

Many times, this combination of serious injuries leads to a significant change in how the victim lives his or her life. The victim may face weeks or months of rehabilitation. In certain cases, the victim may never fully recover.

Medical Care After an Accident

Immediately following the car-pedestrian accident, first responders almost certainly will recommend that you go to the hospital. Even if you believe your injuries are minor, you should visit a doctor at the hospital.

Often, the adrenaline you feel after a significant accident like this can mask some of the pain and injuries you have suffered, including internal injuries. The symptoms of internal injuries may not show up initially, and they are extremely serious to your long-term health outlook.

So even if you choose to go home instead of visiting a doctor immediately after the accident, you still have time to go to a doctor for a full diagnosis a day or two later.

This was the 1st time I've used Zanes Law. It was a fantastic experience for having to go through a situation most would rather not. The attorney and staff were always available to answer my questions and explained things clearly and were obviously 100% in my corner. My attorney, Jim, was very genuine and made me immediately comfortable when I came in to speak with him about my case. Every case manager I dealt with was patient and helpful. I would definitely return to Zanes should the time ever come again that I need a personal injury firm.

Zanes Law was a terrific legal experience. I first went to a law firm that only wanted me to go to physical therapy and pad the bill, so they could utilize my insurance policy to its capacity. Once I went to Zanes, they were honest, professional and prompt with calls almost once a week. Sometimes I got a call just because we did not have contact for close to two weeks. Some calls were to just ask how I was doing. I also received more money than originally discussed. Great job Zanes Law!!!!! If need be I will use their services again. THANKS
