Whether you were walking along Watson Boulevard, crossing Russell Parkway, or navigating through a shopping center near Robins Air Force Base, one careless driver can cause devastating injuries in an instant. If you or a loved one was struck by a vehicle, you may be entitled to compensation.
At Ted Law Firm, we help injured pedestrians throughout Warner Robins, Centerville, Perry, and Houston County hold negligent drivers accountable. We handle the legal process from start to finish, so you can focus on healing.
What Causes Pedestrian Accidents?
Most pedestrian crashes are caused by driver negligence or failure to yield.
Common causes include:
- Speeding in residential or school zones
- Failing to yield at crosswalks or intersections
- Running red lights or stop signs
- Distracted driving (texting, GPS, eating)
- Drunk or drug-impaired driving
- Unsafe turns or backing up without checking
We investigate each crash, collect the evidence, and build a strong case that proves liability.
Common Injuries in Pedestrian Accidents
Pedestrians have no protection in a crash, which means even low-speed collisions can lead to catastrophic injuries.
We represent clients with:
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
- Spinal cord damage or paralysis
- Broken bones and orthopedic trauma
- Internal bleeding or organ damage
- Facial injuries and disfigurement
- Emotional trauma and PTSD
- Wrongful death (in fatal pedestrian crashes)
We work with your doctors and medical experts to understand the full extent of your injuries and your long-term care needs.
What Compensation Can You Recover?
If someone else caused the accident, you may be entitled to compensation for:
- Emergency medical care and hospitalization
- Surgeries, therapy, and long-term care
- Lost wages and future earning potential
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress or mental health care
- Permanent disability or scarring
- Funeral and burial expenses (in fatal cases)
We fight for full and fair compensation, not just the insurance company’s first offer.
What If They Try to Blame You?
It’s common for insurance companies to try to blame the pedestrian. They may say:
- You “darted into traffic”
- You weren’t in a crosswalk
- You were wearing dark clothing at night
Under Georgia’s modified comparative fault rule, you can still recover compensation if you’re less than 50% at fault. We push back with crash reports, eyewitness accounts, and expert analysis.
