Pedestrians are the most vulnerable parties who share our roads in the state of Pennsylvania and beyond. Unfortunately, there are particular risks to these individuals due to the fact that they have no protection from harm in the event of an accident. In 2019, it was reported that 154 pedestrians were killed in Pennsylvania accidents, and thousands more sustained injuries. As an injured pedestrian, you will need to prove that a driver was at fault for your accident. This is not always easy to do, which is why it is important that you seek the assistance of an attorney who has handled these claims in the past.
