Pedestrian Accidents - The Walsh Firm, Ltd.

Why You Need a Pedestrian Accident Attorney

Pedestrian accident cases can be complex. Drivers and insurers often try to shift blame to the victim, arguing that the pedestrian “came out of nowhere” or “wasn’t in the crosswalk.” Without an experienced attorney, it can be difficult to prove fault and secure the compensation you need.

When you choose The Walsh Firm, Ltd., you’re choosing a dedicated legal advocate who will:

  • Investigate the accident and collect all available evidence (including surveillance footage, witness statements, and police reports)
  • Work with accident reconstruction experts to establish fault
  • Handle all communication and negotiation with insurance companies
  • Take your case to court if the insurer refuses to offer a fair settlement

We handle the legal complexities so you can focus on healing.

Common Causes of Pedestrian Accidents

Most pedestrian accidents occur because a driver wasn’t paying attention or violated traffic laws. Our firm represents victims of pedestrian crashes caused by:

  • Distracted or texting drivers
  • Speeding or running red lights
  • Failure to yield in crosswalks
  • Drunk or impaired driving
  • Reckless or aggressive driving
  • Poor visibility or unsafe intersections

Whether your accident occurred on the Las Vegas Strip, downtown, or in a residential neighborhood, we have the experience to hold negligent drivers accountable.

Injuries and Impact on Victims

Because pedestrians have no protection against the force of a moving vehicle, these accidents often result in serious or life-altering injuries, such as:

  • Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
  • Spinal cord damage
  • Broken bones and fractures
  • Internal injuries
  • Severe lacerations or disfigurement

We understand how devastating these injuries can be physically, emotionally, and financially, and we fight to secure every dollar you need for recovery.

What Compensation Can You Recover?

If you’ve been hit by a car while walking in Las Vegas, you may be entitled to compensation for:

  • Current and future medical expenses
  • Lost income or diminished earning ability
  • Pain and suffering
  • Emotional distress
  • Long-term rehabilitation or therapy
  • Loss of enjoyment of life

Our firm will work tirelessly to ensure insurance companies don’t minimize your injuries or losses.
