Las Vegas Pedestrian Accident Lawyer

If a vehicle struck you or someone you care about on a Las Vegas street, understanding how Nevada traffic rules apply to a pedestrian accident is the first step toward putting your life back together. You need clear answers about who is responsible for paying medical bills, covering missed paychecks, and fixing the damage caused by a driver’s mistake. Friedman Injury Law stands ready to help you hold reckless drivers accountable for the harm they cause.

What Causes A Pedestrian Accident In Southern Nevada

Blake Friedman grew up right here in Southern Nevada and knows how local traffic patterns create dangerous situations for people on foot. Drivers frequently drop their guard on wide arterial roads like Charleston Boulevard, Rainbow Boulevard, or Spring Mountain Road where speed limits are high, and pedestrian crossings are far apart. Common factors that lead to a serious pedestrian accident include:

  • Drivers looking at phones, navigation screens, or handheld gadgets instead of keeping eyes on the pavement
  • Motorists driving above posted speed limits or failing to slow down near marked crossing zones
  • Intoxicated drivers operating motor vehicles near the Strip, downtown, or residential neighborhoods after drinking or using drugs
  • Exhausted drivers who have delayed reaction times behind the wheel late at night or early in the morning
  • Drivers making quick left or right turns through intersections without checking crosswalks for people walking

Proving Fault In A Pedestrian Accident Claim

Winning financial compensation after a pedestrian accident requires showing that a motorist failed to follow basic traffic laws or exercise reasonable care. Nevada operates under a modified comparative negligence rule. That means as long as you were not more than fifty percent at fault for what happened, you can still seek compensation for your losses, though your final payout gets adjusted based on your share of responsibility. Insurance carriers frequently try to point fingers at victims after a pedestrian accident to reduce what they have to pay out, claiming the walker was outside a marked box or stepped off a curb too quickly.

Blake Friedman and the legal team at Friedman Injury Law step in immediately to secure video footage from nearby businesses, gather official police statements, interview eyewitnesses, and check cell phone logs to show what really took place during your pedestrian accident. Over the years, our firm has secured over $100 million in settlements for injured clients by building bulletproof cases from day one. With over 400 5-star reviews from local clients, our reputation for standing up to tough insurance companies speaks for itself. As the presenting partner of the Las Vegas A’s Summer Series, we care deeply about making our hometown streets safer for everyone who lives and works here.

Nevada Deadlines For A Pedestrian Accident Lawsuit

Time is a critical factor when dealing with a pedestrian accident claim in Nevada. State law sets a strict two-year statute of limitations for filing personal injury claims following a collision. If you wait past that two-year window from the date of the incident, you lose your legal right to pursue money for your care, lost income, and physical pain forever.

Starting the legal process quickly after a pedestrian accident allows us to preserve perishable evidence before traffic camera recordings get recorded over or physical skid marks fade away. We handle these cases on a contingency fee setup, meaning you pay nothing out of pocket for our investigation, legal preparation, or representation unless we secure a financial recovery for you.

WHAT OUR LAS VEGAS INJURY CLIENTS SAY

I was in a serious car accident in April while driving my Tesla. Both the front and side airbags deployed, and I was taken to the ER by ambulance. I was so distraught over this traumatic experience. My husband found Friedman Law Firm, and from our very first meeting with Blake Friedman, I felt a huge sense of relief. He patiently answered every question we had, clearly explained the process, and genuinely put my mind at ease that he would take care of everything. Throughout the roughly four months that followed, the firm handled it all—claiming the total loss of my car, scheduling doctor visits and physical therapy, arranging medications, obtaining the police report, getting my ER visit reimbursed, and pursuing compensation from the at-fault driver’s insurance. They kept me updated every step of the way. Blake and Kevin (both excellent lawyers) along with Ivana were all awesome. Everyone I dealt with was courteous, helpful, and knowledgeable. In the end, they secured a sizable settlement for me. Even though I was going through a difficult time, the whole experience with this firm felt calm and supportive. I highly recommend Friedman Law Firm. I’m truly grateful for how they took care of me.
