Florida Pedestrian Accident Attorneys
Because of the pleasant climate in Florida, residents and tourists alike do a lot of walking, especially in the beach areas. While walking is good for the heart health of the walker, there is a great risk for injury from pedestrian accidents. Because the pedestrian has little or no protection from impact, injuries are often the result of pedestrian accidents in Florida, oftentimes serious or even fatal.
Although a portion of the pedestrian accidents that occur are the responsibility of the pedestrian, most often, pedestrian accidents are the result of negligence on someone else's part. This negligence can be attributed to a driver of a vehicle, or to someone who has been entrusted to keeping the sidewalk or street safe such as a maintenance company. Another possibility for injury would be debris that has fallen from a truck or been left by a construction company, for instance.
