California Pedestrian Accident Lawyers
Protecting The Rights Of Injured Walkers
Pedestrians have the legal right to walk safely through California’s cities, streets, and crosswalks—but far too often, careless drivers violate that right with devastating consequences. If you or a loved one has been hit by a vehicle while walking, Golden Coast Trial Attorneys, PC is here to help. Our experienced California pedestrian accident attorneys fight aggressively to hold negligent drivers accountable and maximize compensation for victims.
Why Pedestrian Accidents Are So Dangerous
With no protection from impact, pedestrians hit by cars, trucks, or buses often suffer catastrophic injuries or death—even at relatively low speeds. These accidents typically result from:
- Drivers failing to yield at crosswalks
Speeding through intersections or turning without looking - Distracted driving (texting or using a GPS)
- Running red lights or stop signs
- Drunk or impaired driving
- Unsafe backing out of driveways or parking spaces
Pedestrians struck in crosswalks or on sidewalks are often children, seniors, or people simply walking to work or school. Our job is to hold the driver and their insurer fully accountable.
