Types of Pedestrian Accidents We Handle

At Rodriguez Law Firm, we represent victims who have suffered injuries following an accident that wasn’t your fault. This includes accidents where a pedestrian was hit by a car, as well as car accidents caused by pedestrian activity.

Our attorneys have decades of combined experience investigating complex accident scenes, working with experts, and holding negligent drivers accountable across Virginia, Maryland, Washington D.C., and Texas.

We regularly handle cases involving:

Crosswalk and intersection accidents: when drivers fail to yield or run red lights while pedestrians have the right of way.
Parking lot and driveway accidents: where drivers back up or turn without checking for pedestrians.
Hit-and-run pedestrian collisions: pursuing recovery through uninsured motorist coverage when the driver flees the scene.
Distracted driving accidents: caused by motorists texting or using phones while approaching crosswalks or intersections.
Speeding and reckless driving cases: involving drivers who ignore posted limits or fail to slow in pedestrian zones.
Drunk or impaired driver accidents: seeking compensation and punitive damages when alcohol or drugs are involved.
School zone and child pedestrian injuries: representing minors struck near schools, bus stops, or residential areas.
Pedestrian accidents at night or in low visibility: where poor lighting and driver negligence contribute to severe injuries.
Public transportation and rideshare pedestrian accidents: involving buses, Ubers, or Lyfts picking up or dropping off passengers.
Fatal pedestrian accident and wrongful death claims: pursuing justice for families who lost loved ones due to negligent drivers.

Injuries We Commonly See After Pedestrian Accidents

Accidents caused by a car hitting a pedestrian can lead to a wide range of injuries, with varying impacts on your day-to-day life.

At Rodriguez Law Firm, we regularly represent pedestrians who have been hit by cars, including those suffering from back injuries, broken bones, internal trauma, whiplash, sprains, torn ligaments, and emotional distress. In more severe cases, we’ve helped victims facing long-term disability, traumatic brain injuries, permanent scarring, burns, spinal cord damage, and the tragic loss of a loved one in a wrongful death.

IMPORTANT: The success of your case depends on proving you suffered injuries. As our founder Dagoberto Rodriguez explains in this Instagram video, you MUST have records of medical treatment or an evaluation right after the accident happened

Once you’ve received an evaluation, you can call Rodriguez Law Firm to continue your treatment—at no cost—while we work on your compensation claim.

How Much Compensation Can You Claim?

It depends. The main factors are the severity of your injuries, the at-fault party’s financial status, and the limits of relevant insurance policies. If the at-fault driver was employed by a company, then the insurance policy could be higher than normal—in one of our case results, for example, Rodriguez Law Firm secured a €1 million claim for a client.

But it’s important to understand how personal injury claims work. During an interview on the Rodriguez Law Firm YouTube channel, the owner of 57 Insurance Agency, Manuel Diaz, explained how an insurance payout is supposed to help a vehicle accident victim “return to the same or a similar state” as before the accident.

This means you get compensation that is equivalent to:

The costs of your medical treatment
The costs of your lost wages
Multiplying these by the intensity of your emotional suffering
The future costs of these three elements

In the case of the $1 million payout, the client was the family member of a victim who tragically lost their life following an automobile accident.

How Much Are Rodriguez Law Firm’s Legal Fees?

In the United States the contingency fee for a pedestrian accident injury is usually 33-40% of your total claim. But unfortunately, some attorneys will charge you hidden fees on top of the contingency fee—without making this clear.

We don’t believe that’s fair.

At Rodriguez Law Firm, your agreement is simple and transparent: no added expenses, no hidden charges, no last-minute surprises. This will be clearly stated in the first clause of the contract you sign when you hire one of our lawyers to represent you.
