Pedestrian Accidents

Leading San Francisco Pedestrian Accident Attorneys

Pedestrians are vulnerable to a wide range of serious accidents due to unsafe conditions on the city’s sidewalks and crosswalks, reckless taxi drivers, hazardous bus and cable-car access, and negligent automobile drivers. Trial lawyers at Abramson Smith Waldsmith, LLP, have the experience and the resources to litigate effectively against cities, the municipal railway, taxi cab companies, bus companies, and public and private insurers.

Throughout our San Francisco personal injury practice, our attorneys focus on securing full and fair compensation for all damages and losses for plaintiffs and their heirs who have suffered catastrophic injury or wrongful death because of another’s carelessness or recklessness. We have handled serious pedestrian accidents and falls caused by uneven or slippery sidewalks, crosswalks, and curbs; malfunctioning traffic lights; inadequate signage and construction warnings; and recklessness or negligence on the part of vehicle drivers.

We seek coverage for immediate medical care, short and long term disability, and rehabilitation for serious leg fractures and other orthopedic injuries, crushed limbs and traumatic amputations, spinal cord injuries, brain injuries, paralysis, and loss of cognitive functioning. We seek financial relief for lost wages and lost earning potential for families whose loved one suffered serious injury or death.

Over our more than 100 years of combined experience, our law firm has achieved a winning record on behalf of our clients, and we have earned the respect of our colleagues statewide and nationwide for our thorough and principled work.
