Pedestrian Accidents

Pedestrian Accident Lawyer Naples, FL

Florida is one of the most dangerous – and deadly – states for pedestrians. Many factors contribute to this unfortunate fact. Some of them, like the lack of designated crosswalks, can reduce the compensation you are entitled to, even if you were the vulnerable pedestrian injured by a motorist.

Under the law, pedestrians are not only those walking on roads shared by vehicles (including cars, trucks, motorcycles, ATVs, scooters, and farm machinery), but those stopped at the side of the road to change a tire or write a ticket.

Injured? We can empower and protect you in our “comparative law” state of Florida, which determines recoverable damages based on your percentage of fault. This means you can recover financial compensation even if you were partially at fault. Call us before your statute of limitations runs out.
