Pedestrian Accident Lawyer

Experience representing pedestrians

As a pedestrian, getting hit by a car can have serious or life-threatening consequences. You might be crossing an intersection or street one day, when a vehicle strikes you, altering your life forever.

At Simpson Thomas, our personal injury lawyers have had years of experience representing pedestrians who’ve been injured in traffic accidents.

We’re familiar with the standard defence put forward by negligent or speeding drivers: that the pedestrian jumped into traffic, that they couldn’t see the pedestrian at that time of day or night, that the driver had the right of way.

The fact is, there are very few defence arguments we haven’t seen in our years of practice in Vancouver personal injury law. We can assure you that we’ll put the best case forward on your behalf.

Holding negligent and speeding drivers accountable

If you’re dealing directly with ICBC, you may sometimes feel that they don’t have your best interests at heart. In that case, you’ll want to work with personal injury lawyers who can obtain a settlement that’s fair to you. That’s Simpson Thomas.

We’re here to ensure that the negligent parties are held accountable. We’ll work closely with you to ensure that all the evidence needed for your case is collected. Our Vancouver pedestrian accident lawyers do their best to obtain the settlement you deserve.

What are my damages?

We can advise you on issues relating to your medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, and lost income as a result of your pedestrian accident. You’ll want to work with an expert who can help you quantify those amounts.

Over the years, we’ve helped win insurance settlements, arbitration awards and trial verdicts favourable to our clients.

At Simpson Thomas, we are on your side.
