Protecting Injured Pedestrians in Everett

Whether you were crossing at a marked crosswalk, walking along a sidewalk, or simply navigating a parking lot, you had every right to feel safe. Unfortunately, careless drivers often ignore traffic laws, resulting in devastating pedestrian accidents in Everett. At Park Chenaur Injury Lawyers, we know how to investigate these complex incidents and hold negligent drivers accountable.

Common Causes of Pedestrian Accidents

Many pedestrian accidents in Everett occur due to driver error, distraction, or reckless behavior. Some of the most frequent causes include:

  • Distracted driving: Texting or using a phone while driving reduces awareness and reaction time.
  • Failure to yield: Drivers may ignore crosswalks or stop signs, especially during turns at intersections.
  • Speeding: High-speed collisions leave pedestrians with little chance to escape or brace for impact.
  • Drunk or drugged driving: Impaired drivers are more likely to miss seeing pedestrians.
  • Running red lights or stop signs: Even a split-second decision can have tragic consequences.
  • Poor visibility: Fog, darkness, or heavy rain can increase the danger when drivers fail to slow down or use headlights properly.

Regardless of the cause, if a negligent driver hit you, you may be entitled to compensation.

Common Injuries in Pedestrian Accidents

Pedestrians are unprotected in a crash, which means injuries are often severe. At Park Chenaur Injury Lawyers, we’ve represented clients with:

  • Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
  • Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
  • Broken bones and fractures
  • Pelvic and hip injuries
  • Internal bleeding or organ damage
  • Facial and dental injuries
  • Disfigurement and scarring
  • Amputations
  • Psychological trauma
  • Wrongful death

These injuries may require months or years of care. Some victims are never able to return to work or regain full independence. We help calculate the full impact of the accident and demand fair compensation for your recovery.

What to Do After a Pedestrian Accident

If you’ve been struck by a vehicle in Everett, here are some key steps to protect your rights:

  • Seek immediate medical attention, even if you feel okay at first.
  • Call 911 and report the accident, especially if there are injuries.
  • Get the driver’s contact and insurance information.
  • Collect witness contact details and ask for statements if possible.
  • Take photos of the scene, vehicle, crosswalk, signals, and your injuries.
  • Do not give a recorded statement to the driver’s insurance company without legal advice.
  • Contact an attorney to review your case and manage communications.

Early legal involvement is crucial, especially when evidence may disappear or fault is disputed.

Who Can Be Held Liable?

In Everett pedestrian accident cases, liability may extend beyond just the driver:

  • The driver of the vehicle that hit you, if they were negligent
  • The driver’s employer, if the crash occurred during work duties
  • Government entities, if poor lighting, faulty signals, or road design played a role
  • Vehicle manufacturers, if a mechanical failure contributed to the crash

Our Everett pedestrian accident lawyers thoroughly investigate every potential cause and pursue all liable parties.

Highly recommend! I was in a car accident in November of 2023 and my insurance didn’t do much to help me so I contacted Park Chenaur Law to see if I can get someone that will help me out.

I was in a car accident and tried to deal with the other insurance company on my own. The person I was dealing with was very aggressive and not easy to work with.

In the summer of 2022, I found myself in a stressful situation after a car accident.  Despite it not being my fault, dealing with insurance was intimidating.  A friend recommended Parks Chenaur & Associates LLP, and it turned out to be a lifesaver.  They not only guided me through the insurance process but ...
