Philadelphia Pedestrian Accident Lawyer
Attorney for Victims of Traffic Accidents in Philadelphia, PA
When a pedestrian is involved in a traffic accident, the result is usually catastrophic. A typical sedan may weigh anywhere from 2,000 to 3,000 pounds, and this is no match for a human being. A pedestrian is not surrounded by thousands of pounds of metal to protect him or her in the event of even a low-speed collision. The injuries that a pedestrian may sustain in an auto accident may include broken bones, internal organ damage, head trauma, spinal cord injury, brain injury and neck injury. These will require extensive medical care and may forever affect the victim’s quality of life.
