Pedestrian Injury in Kansas City Attorneys

Hit by Car or Truck in Cross Walk in Kansas City, Missouri


Have you or a loved one been injured in a Kansas City Pedestrian accident? Crosswalk injuries and hit and runs are unfortunately all too common, and require the assistance of a knowledgeable and talented personal injury attorney.

Pedestrian accidents are responsible for an estimated 5,000 deaths each year; almost 80,000 people are injured in these types of accidents as well. At The O’Connor Law Firm, our Kansas City pedestrian accidents attorneys work aggressively to protect the rights of our clients and obtain justice. If you or a loved one have been injured you need the guidance and support of a skilled law firm.

What are the most common causes of pedestrian accidents in the U.S.? Typically, a motorist fails to pay attention or is distracted. Many accidents occur at night, or when dusk approaches. You may be walking on the side of the road, crossing at a cross walk or on a sidewalk, when out of the blue you are struck by a car. Our pedestrian accident lawyers know that these types of accidents can result in serious or even life-threatening injuries. You may be disabled and lose your ability to work, which can be devastating financially as well as emotionally.

Drunk drivers, those who drive in a reckless manner, speed, or engage in dangerous activities such as texting or talking on cell phones can put pedestrians at risk. A pedestrian accident doesn’t necessarily have to be caused by a motorist; falling objects, unsafe surfaces and construction sites can put those who walk at risk as well. Any time you are walking and are injured through no fault of your own, you may have grounds for a lawsuit.

As skilled pedestrian accidents attorneys we realize that victims of these types of accidents often suffer spinal cord and head injuries, back injuries, broken bones, skull fractures and other serious injuries. Severe injuries can require rehabilitation, surgery, or extensive healing time, leaving victims unable to work or live a normal life. Medical care can devastate you financially; combined with the fact that you are unable to work, it can leave you with no choice but to file bankruptcy. At The O’Connor Law Firm we believe that those responsible should be held accountable for their negligence.

Pedestrians who live in larger cities and urban or metropolitan areas are at a higher risk of being injured in this type of accident. When you are in need of a pedestrian accidents lawyer with the skill, knowledge and experience to achieve the best possible outcome on your behalf, count on us. We work hard and do whatever it takes to ensure that our clients receive the fair compensation they deserve.
