Pedestrian Accidents in the Greater Philadelphia Area

Pedestrian accidents are some of the most serious and traumatic types of personal injury cases. If you or a loved one has been struck by a vehicle while walking in Philadelphia or the surrounding counties, you may be entitled to significant compensation. At PhillyLawyer.co, our experienced Philadelphia pedestrian accident attorneys are here to fight for your rights and help you recover the damages you deserve.


📞 Call us today at 215.543.6489 for a free consultation.


Why Pedestrian Accidents Happen in the Philadelphia Region

The Greater Philadelphia area — including Philadelphia County, Montgomery County, Delaware County, Bucks County, and Chester County — sees a high number of pedestrian accidents each year. Heavy traffic, dense urban areas, and driver negligence all contribute to dangerous conditions for pedestrians.

Common causes of pedestrian accidents include:

  • Distracted driving (texting, GPS use, etc.)
  • Speeding in residential or downtown areas
  • Failing to yield at crosswalks or intersections
  • Running red lights or stop signs
  • Drunk or impaired driving
  • Poor visibility or weather conditions

No matter how careful you are as a pedestrian, one reckless driver can cause devastating harm.


Common Pedestrian Accident Injuries

Unlike motorists, pedestrians have no protection from the impact of a vehicle. As a result, injuries are often catastrophic and can include:

  • Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
  • Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
  • Broken bones and fractures
  • Internal bleeding or organ damage
  • Lacerations and facial disfigurement
  • Wrongful death


At PhillyLawyer.co, we understand how overwhelming medical bills, lost income, and long-term recovery can be. We will aggressively pursue the maximum compensation available to you under Pennsylvania personal injury law.


Your Legal Rights as a Pedestrian in Pennsylvania

Under Pennsylvania law, drivers have a legal obligation to yield the right-of-way to pedestrians in marked crosswalks and intersections. If a driver fails to follow the rules of the road and causes an injury, they can be held liable for your damages.


Pennsylvania follows a modified comparative negligence system. This means you can still recover damages even if you were partially at fault — as long as you were less than 51% responsible.


Our team will investigate the accident thoroughly, gather evidence, interview witnesses, and work with experts to build a strong case on your behalf.
