Compassionate Legal Support for Pedestrian Accident Victims in Wisconsin
Car Accident

Injured as a pedestrian? Trial Lawyers of Wisconsin provides aggressive legal representation to help victims recover compensation for injuries caused by negligent drivers.

Pedestrian accidents are among the most devastating traffic incidents. Without the protection of a vehicle, pedestrians often suffer life-altering injuries—or worse—when struck by cars, trucks, or other motor vehicles. At Trial Lawyers of Wisconsin, we provide strong, compassionate legal support for victims and their families. Our goal is simple: to hold negligent drivers accountable and secure full compensation for those harmed.

Understanding the Risks to Pedestrians

Despite traffic laws designed to protect them, pedestrians face serious risks on Wisconsin roads, especially in urban areas and near busy intersections. Common causes of pedestrian accidents include:

  • Distracted driving (texting, calls, in-car devices)
  • Speeding or reckless driving in pedestrian zones
  • Failure to yield at crosswalks
  • Drunk or drug-impaired driving
  • Rolling stops or running red lights
  • Poor visibility or lack of proper signage

These negligent behaviors can result in traumatic injuries with long-term consequences.

Common Injuries in Pedestrian Accidents

Because pedestrians have no protection during a collision, injuries are often severe and require immediate and long-term medical care. Our firm has represented clients suffering from:

  • Broken bones and fractures
  • Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)
  • Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
  • Internal bleeding or organ damage
  • Severe lacerations or disfigurement
  • Emotional trauma or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)

These injuries can lead to lengthy hospital stays, rehabilitation, and a dramatic impact on the victim’s ability to work or live independently.

What to Do After a Pedestrian Accident

If you or a loved one has been hit by a vehicle, take the following steps if possible:

  1. Call 911 and seek immediate medical care.
  2. Obtain the driver’s information and take photos of the scene.
  3. Report the incident to police and request a copy of the report.
  4. Speak with witnesses and gather their contact details.
  5. Contact an experienced personal injury lawyer before speaking to insurers.
