Pedestrian Accident

Long Beach Attorney: Pedestrian Accidents

Spinal Cord Injury ● Brain Injury ● Wrongful Death

When an automobile strikes a pedestrian, it does anything but conjure images of a fair fight. The injuries sustained by individuals involved in pedestrian accidents can be life-altering, life-threatening, or life-ending. But the victims of these accidents often find themselves facing accusations of a "dart-out," that they had run in front of traffic and put themselves at risk. Don't let the person who hit you try to put the blame on you. If you need representation, contact Lallande Law PLC online or call (866) 490-8514 for a free initial consultation.

Scientifically reconstructing pedestrian accidents

The most common argument that the defense employs in pedestrian accident cases is that the injured pedestrian actually darted out into traffic, causing the collision. Fortunately, there are ways of telling whether or not these allegations are true. By carefully analyzing the physical evidence - the physical damage to the car measured against the location where the person landed - you can use the law of conservation of energy to show conclusively how fast the pedestrian was moving.

Other factors, such as the age of the individual and whether or not they were carrying anything, can also help disprove dart-out accusations. With a background in science, Mr. Lallande has used this practical, physical approach to reconstructing accidents to help his clients recover the compensation they need.
