How a Tampa Pedestrian Accident Lawyer Can Help

A person on foot has no protection in a collision. We pursue every driver and policy responsible for the harm.

A person on foot has no protection in a collision, so pedestrian crashes tend to produce the most serious injuries of any traffic case. Drivers and their insurers frequently claim the pedestrian 'darted out' or was outside a crosswalk to shift blame.

We use surveillance video, witness accounts, and the physical evidence to reconstruct what actually happened and establish the driver's responsibility. Because medical needs can extend for years, we build the claim around the full arc of your recovery.

Compensation You May Be Entitled To

• ✓Past and future medical expenses
• ✓Lost wages and diminished earning capacity
• ✓Pain, suffering, and emotional distress
• ✓Property damage and out-of-pocket costs

Pedestrian Accidents FAQs

How much does a Tampa pedestrian accident lawyer cost?

Nothing up front. Mark H. Wright handles pedestrian accidents cases on a contingency fee — you pay no fee unless we recover compensation for you, and your initial consultation is always free.

How long do I have to file a pedestrian accidents claim in Florida?

Florida generally gives injury victims two years from the date of the injury to file a personal-injury lawsuit (shortened from four years by a 2023 reform). Some claims have shorter deadlines, so it is important to speak with an attorney quickly.

What is my pedestrian accidents case worth?

Every case is different. Value depends on the severity of your injuries, your past and future medical costs, lost income, and how the injury affects your life. We evaluate all of these to pursue the full compensation you are owed.

Do I have to go to court for a pedestrian accidents case?

Most cases settle without a trial. But Mark prepares every case as if it will be tried, which is often what convinces an insurer to make a fair offer.
