Pedestrian Accident Claims

It is easy to assume that all road accidents involve vehicles such as cars, bicycles or motorcycles but many accidents involve pedestrians as well. As a pedestrian you expect there to be some form of protection to ensure your safety. Whilst you accept that you have a degree of responsibility to yourself and other pedestrians and road users it is not unreasonable to expect the same. There is some protection afforded to you by the Highway Code but in most cases you are at the mercy of other road users. You rely upon their driving with due care and attention but unfortunately, this is not always the case. Many pedestrians, especially children are involved in road accidents each year in Ontario which often result in a serious injury or death. The sad fact here is that most of these are preventable. If you or someone in your family has been injured as a pedestrian as a result of a road accident then you may be able to claim compensation. Let your Family-First Personal Injury Litigation Team at Benjamin Law handle the details, and get you the compensation that you deserve.
