Pedestrian Accidents in California

Navigating the aftermath of a motor vehicle accident can be overwhelming. Each month, thousands in our state find themselves dealing with injuries from roadway collisions that disrupt their lives and necessitate comprehensive medical treatment. Among the common injuries sustained in these incidents are:

• Amputations: Tragic circumstances like being pinned against an object or severe trauma can lead to the loss of a limb, either immediately during the crash or as a surgical necessity afterward.
• Crush Injuries: Pedestrians can become trapped between or under vehicles during accidents, causing crush injuries that may lead to internal damage, broken bones, and sometimes complications that result in long-term disability.
• Nerve Damage: Sharp blows or cuts during an accident can sever or damage nerves, leading to loss of sensation, movement, or chronic pain in the affected area.
• Psychological Trauma: Beyond physical injuries, the emotional impact of an accident can manifest as anxiety, depression, or PTSD, significantly affecting a victim’s quality of life.
