Pedestrians struck by vehicles have no protection at the moment of impact, and the resulting injuries are often severe. When a driver’s negligence causes a pedestrian accident, victims deserve legal representation that will pursue the full value of their claim. Jeremy Pineres Law represents pedestrian accident victims throughout Gwinnett County and has a track record of significant results for seriously injured clients.
All cases are handled on a contingency fee basis — no upfront cost, and no fee unless compensation is recovered.
Common Causes of Pedestrian Accidents
Most pedestrian accidents are caused by driver negligence. Failure to yield at crosswalks, distracted driving, speeding, running red lights, and impaired driving are among the leading causes of pedestrian injuries. Left-turn accidents — where a driver turns across a pedestrian’s path — are particularly dangerous and frequently result in serious injuries. Georgia law requires drivers to yield to pedestrians in crosswalks, and violations of this duty form the basis of many pedestrian accident claims.
Injuries and Compensation
Pedestrian accident injuries frequently include traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, broken bones, internal injuries, and in the most serious cases, fatalities. The long-term consequences can include permanent disability, ongoing rehabilitation, and significant lost earning capacity. Injured pedestrians may be entitled to recover medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, future care costs, and other damages. Jeremy Pineres Law evaluates the full impact of each injury before pursuing recovery.
