Mesa Pedestrian Accident Lawyer

When a car hits a person on foot or on a bicycle, the injuries are serious. We fight for the one who had no protection.

You don't have to face this alone

Walking or riding a bike, you have nothing between you and a car. These accidents cause serious injuries, and the insurance company often tries to blame the victim. We show what really happened.

From day one we protect your case so you can focus on what matters most: getting better.

What we do for you

  • We look for cameras in the area and witnesses who saw it happen.
  • We show the driver failed to yield.
  • We document head injuries, fractures and more.
  • We push back when the insurer tries to pin it on you.

Cases we handle

  • People struck in crosswalks and on sidewalks
  • Drivers turning without looking
  • Cyclists hit in their own lane
  • Hit-and-run drivers
  • School zones and parking lots

Where these accidents happen in the Valley

It's no coincidence the same scenarios repeat. The wide arterials around Mesa and Phoenix are designed to move cars fast, which leaves little margin for anyone on foot or on a bike:

  • Long crossings where the signal doesn't give enough time to get across.
  • Drivers turning right while looking only to their left.
  • Left turns on a flashing arrow, when the driver is watching cars instead of the crosswalk.
  • Long stretches with no marked crossing, where people cross out of necessity.
  • Entrances and exits of parking lots and shopping plazas.
  • Cyclists hit by opening doors or by cars passing too close.

Evidence for when they try to blame you

In these cases the argument that the person "darted out" almost always appears. The evidence exists precisely to answer it:

  • Video from nearby businesses, gas stations or homes — many systems record over themselves within days.
  • Where your belongings landed and the point of impact on the car.
  • Witnesses in other cars who stopped.
  • The officer's report and any citation issued to the driver.
  • Photos of the crossing at the same time of day, to show visibility and lighting.

If the driver took off

It happens more than people think, and it doesn't mean you're out of options. Even if the driver is never found, uninsured-motorist coverage — under your own policy, or a household family member's — often applies. The first steps are a police report and immediate medical attention.

Frequently asked questions

General information to point you in the right direction. For your specific case, the consultation is free.

  • Not automatically. Crossing outside a marked crosswalk can be part of the argument over responsibility, but the driver has obligations too. We'll review how your case looks as a whole, at no cost.
