Common causes of pedestrian accidents
Pedestrian accidents caused by drivers in Tavares often occur because the driver was doing something they should not have been doing at the time of your accident. Common causes of Tavares pedestrian accidents include:
- Speeding drivers who hit a pedestrian in a crosswalk.
- Texting drivers or distracted drivers who hit pedestrians walking alongside a road.
- Aggressive drivers who fail to yield for pedestrians.
- Drunk drivers who hit a pedestrian crossing the street.
- Tired drivers who drift into pedestrians walking on a sidewalk or along a street.
Is this how your Tavares pedestrian accident happened? Or did a reckless or negligent driver cause your accident some other way?

Legal issues our personal injury lawyers can help you with
A driver clearly caused your pedestrian accident. Maybe they ran a red light, were intoxicated or texting while driving at the time of your crash. Why would you need a lawyer in these situations? The driver was clearly at fault.
Unfortunately, even the most clear-cut pedestrian accident can often be extremely complicated. Some of the reasons why include:
- The driver denies doing anything to cause your pedestrian accident.
- The driver tries to blame you for causing the collision.
- Evidence from the accident gets lost or is no longer available.
- The driver’s insurance company makes a lowball settlement offer and refuses to negotiate.
- The insurance company denies your pedestrian accident claim.
Bills can add up fast after a serious pedestrian accident. This is especially true if you sustained a severe injury like a concussion, a traumatic brain injury, broken bones, internal bleeding, or organ damage. In addition, you might need surgery or long-term medical care due to chronic pain.
If you don’t take decisive legal action after your pedestrian accident, you could be forced to pay for your accident-related expenses out of your own pocket. That’s not right. That’s why we want to meet with you right away.
Put our experience to work for you
Building a strong, successful legal case often takes hard work. It often means taking the time to analyze all the evidence gathered from your accident carefully. We then mount our own investigating to determine if there’s anything investigators might have missed or overlooked. We also frequently consult with accident reconstruction experts.
Once we have compiled all this information, we will likely present our findings to the driver’s insurance company. Often, they agree to cooperate and make a fair settlement offer that covers the actual cost of your accident-related expenses. But if they refuse to cooperate, we’re prepared to take them to court and fight for the compensation you deserve.
