Phoong Law represents injured pedestrians and grieving families across California, Nevada, and Texas. We take on the insurance companies so you can focus on healing, and you owe us nothing unless we recover for you.

Critical Facts for Pedestrian Accident Victims

Car accidents can happen in an instant, but their impact lasts for months or even years. Understanding your rights and the legal process is the first step toward getting the compensation you deserve.

Understanding fault matters. In most states where Phoong Law operates, the driver who caused the accident is responsible for damages. Their insurance company should cover your medical bills, lost income, and other losses, but getting them to pay fairly is rarely straightforward.

Time limits apply. Every state has a statute of limitations for personal injury claims. In California, it’s generally 2 years. In Nevada, it’s also 2 years. In Texas, the deadline is likewise 2 years. Missing your deadline could mean losing your right to compensation entirely.

Common causes include distracted driving, speeding, driving under the influence, running red lights, and unsafe lane changes. No matter what caused your crash, if someone else’s negligence led to your injuries, you deserve compensation.

Injuries can be life-changing, whiplash, broken bones, traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, and internal bleeding are all common. Some injuries don’t show symptoms right away, which is why seeing a doctor immediately after a crash is critical.

Never accept the first offer from an insurance company. Adjusters are trained to settle fast and settle low. Before you sign anything, talk to a Phoong Law car accident attorney who can evaluate what your case is truly worth.

🚶

Right of Way

Drivers must yield to pedestrians. The law is on your side in the vast majority of pedestrian collisions.

🩺

Catastrophic Injuries

Pedestrian accidents produce some of the most severe injuries in personal injury law, often requiring long-term care.

💰

Zero Out-of-Pocket Cost

Our firm works purely on contingency. You pay nothing upfront and nothing at all unless we win your case.

⚖️

Shared Fault Recovery

Even if you share some responsibility for the accident, you can still pursue compensation under state law.

Types of Pedestrian Accident Cases We Handle

🚶

Crosswalk Accidents

Pedestrians struck in marked or unmarked crosswalks by drivers who fail to yield. The driver is almost always at fault in these cases.

🔄

Intersection Collisions

Turning vehicles are a major threat to pedestrians crossing at intersections. Left-turning drivers are especially dangerous.

🏎️

Hit-and-Run Incidents

When a driver strikes a pedestrian and flees, victims are left injured and without answers. We help track down evidence and pursue every avenue of compensation.

🚧

Parking Lot Accidents

Backing vehicles and distracted drivers in parking lots and garages strike pedestrians more often than most people realize.

🚗

Distracted Driver Strikes

Texting, phone calls, and GPS use behind the wheel cause drivers to miss pedestrians entirely. These cases often involve clear evidence of negligence.

🛑

Failure-to-Stop Crashes

Drivers who blow through stop signs, red lights, or school zone signals put pedestrians in immediate danger. Violation of traffic law strengthens your case.
