When you need a pedestrian accident lawyer in Los Angeles, The L.A. Law Firm is here to help. Our team specializes in pedestrian accident cases, providing expert legal representation to ensure you receive the compensation you deserve.
Pedestrian accidents in LA can be devastating—and they’re happening more often.
Crowded intersections, speeding drivers, and distracted commuters all raise the risk. If you were hit, take action immediately. Get medical attention, call the police, and gather as much information as you can. Names, photos, license plates, witness statements—it all matters.
Then call a lawyer. Not just any lawyer. Someone who knows how pedestrian cases work in Los Angeles.
We’ve handled hundreds of cases involving walkers, runners, and kids struck in crosswalks or on sidewalks. We move quickly to preserve video footage, secure traffic data, and block insurers from blaming you for a driver’s mistake.
LA’s street design wasn’t built to protect people on foot.
Drivers treat crosswalks like yield zones. Left turns at wide intersections often ignore walkers. Combine that with poor lighting, limited signage, and traffic congestion—it’s a setup for disaster.
Even a low-speed impact can lead to serious injuries. Broken bones. Brain trauma. Internal bleeding. Many victims don’t feel the full damage right away. They go home, thinking they’re fine, and wake up the next day with mobility loss or blurred vision.
By then, the driver’s story is already on record.
We work with experts to show exactly how the accident happened and what damage it caused. It’s our job to correct the narrative—and hold the driver accountable.
Most of the pedestrian accident cases we take involve preventable driver mistakes.
We routinely see:
We’ve handled cases throughout the city—from Silver Lake and Westlake to Koreatown and South LA. Whether the crash happened on a narrow side street or a major boulevard, we investigate fast and aggressively.
Every second counts when evidence can disappear.
Pedestrian injuries often come with long recoveries and permanent consequences. That’s why we push for more than just your ER bill.
You can recover damages for medical treatment, physical therapy, and follow-up surgeries. If you missed work—or can’t return to the same job—we include lost wages and diminished earning capacity in your claim. We also calculate pain and suffering based on the physical and emotional impact of the crash.
In more severe cases, we bring in life care planners to outline long-term care needs. If a loved one died as a result of their injuries, we file a wrongful death claim that includes funeral costs, loss of support, and other measurable losses.
Our goal is simple: cover everything the accident cost you.
California law favors pedestrians—but drivers and insurers still try to shift blame.
We prove liability by gathering evidence quickly. That includes surveillance footage, 911 transcripts, dash cams, vehicle data, and witness interviews. In many cases, drivers claim they “didn’t see” the person in the crosswalk. That’s not a defense—it’s proof of negligence.
Some claims involve shared fault. Even if the pedestrian was distracted or jaywalking, California’s comparative fault rule still allows them to recover damages, reduced by their percentage of fault. That means you don’t need a perfect case to win a real payout.
We break down who’s responsible—and fight to make them pay.
You need someone who knows the LA streets, the court system, and how to counter insurance tactics.
At The LA Law Firm, we focus on serious injury cases in Southern California. We’ve recovered millions for pedestrians injured in crashes across Los Angeles. Our team moves fast, builds strong claims, and never hands you off to a case manager.
You talk to your lawyer. You get updates. And you know your case is getting the attention it deserves.
We don’t charge anything unless we win—and consultations are always free.
