Pedestrian Accidents

Pedestrian accidents can happen in an instant and often lead to devastating injuries because pedestrians have no physical protection against vehicles. In Arizona, pedestrian crashes frequently result in serious harm such as traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, broken bones, and internal injuries. Urban areas and high-traffic corridors across the state see a significant number of pedestrian collisions each year, particularly at intersections and crosswalks where visibility, speed, or driver inattention play a critical role.

At Eliza Law, our experienced personal injury attorneys represent injured pedestrians throughout Arizona and help them navigate their legal options after a crash. Arizona law requires drivers to yield the right-of-way to pedestrians in marked crosswalks, and motorists can be held liable when they fail to do so. Arizona’s pure comparative negligence system also allows injured pedestrians to recover compensation even if they are found partially at fault, with damages reduced by their percentage of responsibility.

Whether your accident was caused by a distracted or impaired driver, unsafe road or crosswalk design, or another form of negligence, we fight to hold all responsible parties accountable under Arizona law. Pedestrian accident claims may involve multiple liable parties, including drivers, government entities, or property owners. Eliza Law is committed to pursuing full compensation for medical expenses, lost income, long-term care, and the lasting impact these injuries can have on your life.
