Find a Pedestrian Accident Lawyer in Florida
Hit while walking, jogging, or crossing the street? You have strong rights under Florida law and deserve maximum compensation.
Pedestrians hit by vehicles suffer devastating injuries. Florida consistently ranks among the most dangerous states for people on foot — and you have strong rights if a driver's negligence hurt you.
How these crashes happen
- Drivers failing to yield at crosswalks
- Turning drivers not looking for pedestrians
- Distracted or impaired driving
- Poor lighting and unsafe intersections
Your compensation under Florida law
Your own auto PIP coverage may pay initial medical bills even as a pedestrian, and you can pursue the at-fault driver for medical costs, lost income, and pain and suffering. A two-year deadline applies to most crashes on or after March 24, 2023.
Even if you were crossing outside a crosswalk, comparative negligence means you may still recover a reduced amount — do not assume you have no case.
What to do
- Get emergency medical care.
- Get the driver's and witnesses' information.
- Photograph the scene and your injuries.
- Do not speak to the driver's insurer.
