Crossing a street or walking through a busy parking lot exposes a pedestrian to real danger. In the past few years, WilliamsFord Pedestrian Injury Lawyers have seen an increase in the number of pedestrians struck by cars and trucks.  Downtown Leesburg has a number of pedestrian crosswalks, but oncoming drivers don’t always honor them, to the point that the Leesburg PD has to remind drivers to take care. Other nearby towns, like Winchester, Charles Town, and Manassas, have the same issue.

Our bodies aren’t made the withstand a couple thousand pounds of moving fiberglass and steel.  In these situations, the injuries can be catastrophic, often leading to brain damage, spinal injuries, and bone fractures.

Recently, Pete negotiated a favorable settlement for a man who was walking through a Warrenton parking lot when he was struck by a pizza delivery driver returning to the store for another pickup.  Cory reached a settlement for two friends who were crossing a Leesburg street in the crosswalk when they were struck by an inattentive pickup truck driver who ran through the stop sign. Pete also recovered $800,000 for a Leesburg resident who was struck by a truck while walking in an Inwood, West Virginia parking lot. We are currently working on a number of other cases for seriously injured pedestrians in Leesburg, Winchester, Landsdowne, and Lovettsville.
