PEDESTRIAN ACCIDENTS

Pedestrian Accident Personal Injury Lawyer

Cincinnati, Ohio

Every year there are approximately 60,000 pedestrian fatalities in the United States and more than 110,000 pedestrian injuries. Many of these fatalities and injuries are caused by negligent and dangerous drivers. At O’Connor, Acciani & Levy we work had to hold the guilty party legally responsible for the damages they have caused. In the United States driving is a privilege, not a right. Drivers must obey the law and use caution while operating their vehicle, which includes observing pedestrians and people riding bicycles. Injures sustained by pedestrians may be very serious and might include permanent physical injuries. Some injuries that may result from a pedestrian accident are:

• Brain injury
• Bone fractures
• Coma
• Paralysis
• Abrasions, cuts & scarring

Following a pedestrian accident you should contact a lawyer who will look after your legal rights to begin the legal process. When drivers injure pedestrians or bicyclists they must be held accountable and should have to compensate the victim for all accident-related costs. Medical costs relating to a pedestrian accident can be very expensive, and include hospital bills, loss of wages, and visits to medical specialists, not to mention the pain, recuperation, and potentially life-long effects. Your choice of a lawyer can make a difference.
