New Jersey Pedestrian Accident Lawyers

All automobile drivers have certain obligations to their fellow motorists: they should drive safely and avoid putting other drivers at risk of accidents. In addition to other motorists, drivers also have an obligation to pedestrians.

Each year, thousands of pedestrians suffer serious injuries and even death in accidents with automobiles. If you or someone you love was struck by an automobile, contact the New Jersey pedestrian accident lawyers of Levinson Axelrod, P.A. at 800-346-5529 to discuss your case with an experienced legal professional.

Reducing the Risk of Pedestrian Accidents

It is important to note that not all pedestrian accidents result from driver negligence. Some accidents occur when pedestrians illegally cross roads or walkways. To help avoid accidents with automobiles, pedestrians should keep the following safety tips in mind:

  • Always look both directions before crossing a road
  • Only cross on the “WALK” symbol
  • Do not cross when cars are present
  • Do not cross roads that lack crosswalks

Being alert and mindful of the road can help many pedestrians avoid accidents. Unfortunately, pedestrians who are within their legal rights when crossing a road may still find themselves in an accident with an automobile.

Pedestrians injured in accidents caused by an automobile driver may be eligible to receive financial compensation for their losses. It is important to consult with an experienced personal injury lawyer before filing any lawsuits.
