Drivers and pedestrians have an obligation to share the road. For pedestrians, this means using sidewalks when possible, following traffic signs and signals, and not suddenly stepping into the street when there is oncoming traffic.
For drivers, sharing the road means exercising extra caution around pedestrians, also obeying traffic signs and signals (and all other rules of the road), and yielding to pedestrians in crosswalks. It also means not engaging in dangerous behaviors like texting and driving or drinking and driving.
Our Birmingham pedestrian accident attorneys are focused and fearless fighters. We know that getting full and fair compensation starts with building a solid case, so we do the work. If a driver acted negligently, carelessly, or wrongfully, we prove it using evidence.
Our legal team can locate and interview eyewitnesses, visit the accident scene to take photos and video, and obtain police reports, medical records, and surveillance footage. When necessary, we can hire and consult with experts, like collision reconstructionists. We’ll show that a driver was at fault, and they should pay for your damages.
