Overview

Most pedestrian accident claims turn on who had the right of way and whether the driver was paying attention. We pull traffic camera footage, signal timing, and witness statements quickly, before evidence disappears.

Liability Considerations

Drivers owe pedestrians a duty of care, particularly near crosswalks, school zones, and parking lots. Georgia's modified comparative negligence rule (O.C.G.A. § 51-12-33) means you can still recover even if you share some fault, as long as it's under 50%.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I recover damages if I wasn't in a marked crosswalk?

Often yes. Fault depends on the full picture, including whether the driver had time to see and avoid you and whether you exercised reasonable care.

What if the driver says they didn't see me?

That doesn't excuse a driver from their duty to watch for pedestrians. We investigate lighting, speed, and attention to establish what really happened.

What if my child was hit near school?

School-zone cases often involve reduced speed limits and heightened driver duties. We handle these with extra care given the sensitivity involved.
