Pedestrian Accidents

Albuquerque Lawyer: Pedestrian Accidents

On the mean streets of the law, you want a street fighter.

Schoolchildren, college students, urban professionals, senior citizens — pedestrians include a cross-section of our society. In one way, however, they stand out as a group — they are exceptionally vulnerable to serious injury in the event of a traffic accident.

At Will Ferguson & Associates in Albuquerque, we are personal injury attorneys, and it is our job to help accident victims recover the settlements and verdicts they need to rebuild their lives. If a member of your family was injured in a pedestrian accident, it is important to have your case evaluated immediately in order to preserve evidence necessary to your case. Please feel free to contact our office if you would like to arrange a free consultation with a member of our firm.

A pedestrian hit by a car in a crosswalk, or injured as a result of the driver's failure to yield, will have a negligence claim against the driver. The victim of a hit-and-run accident may be covered under uninsured motorist coverage. If the accident resulted from a defective traffic light or other roadway defect, there may be a claim against the city or a private contractor.
