Experienced Pedestrian Accident Lawyer Protecting Manatee County Residents
Car accidents can place drivers and passengers in significant danger, but victims also often have the benefit of vehicle safety features. When an automobile a hits a pedestrian, however, that pedestrian is far more exposed and vulnerable and serious injury is likely to result. In Florida, all drivers are required to have personal injury protection (PIP) as part of their insurance, but these policies do not always cover all the damages that can occur from these serious accidents.
That is why it is important for pedestrians injured by vehicles to seek competent and aggressive legal counsel to help recover maximum compensation. At Carl Reynolds Law, our legal team is dedicated to victims of personal injury and pursuing every legal option available to recover the restitution they deserve for their pain, suffering, and financial distress.
If you or a loved one have been hurt by negligent motorist, then we invite you to call us and speak to a seasoned personal injury attorney today.

Negligence
on the Road
It is common for an injured pedestrian to be unsure whether or not they have a case against the driver that injured them. Because pedestrians do not have a "behind-the-wheel" vantage, and right-of-way issues are sometimes hard to determine, negligence by the driver can be sometimes difficult to determine.
Negligence by the driver occurs if there is:
- Breaking of the speed limit
- A failure to correctly signal a turn
- Distracted driving of any kind (texting, talking, etc.)
- Intoxicated driving
- Failure to yield to pedestrian right of way
If any of these occur, then the driver has acted in the wrong and liable. Medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, rehabilitation, legal bills, and other costs you have incurred due to a pedestrian accident can all be addressed in personal injury suit personalized to address your needs.
Your Injury Should Not Go Unanswered
You do not have to accept the injury you have sustained from a motorist. Laws and traffic etiquette are in place to make sure pedestrians can feel safe on sidewalks and crossings. When these are disregarded and someone is hurt, that negligence needs to be answered for.
What We Can
Do for You
No matter what the cause of your accident may be, you can be sure that our legal team will work without rest until we reach the best outcome possible.

Other cases are handled similarly with modifications depending on specific circumstances.
- We assist in getting our pedestrian accident client's medical care and fair compensation, including for any damaged property.
- We monitor our client's medical treatment and make sure that the insurance company is paying the full and just amount of financial compensation.
- We aid in getting our clients reimbursed for prescription medication, mileage to and from doctor appointments and compensation for any lost wages.
- We invest hours upon hours with our clients personally and in reviewing their medical reports and other related documentation to make sure that all holes are plugged and that there are no surprises in moving forward with litigation.
Generally, investigations involve getting hold of the full police report, sending letters and communicating with the insurance companies involved with instructions to "leave our clients alone" - to stop hounding them with phone calls or bombarding them with forms to fill out. We will also interview witnesses, take photographs of the accident scene, secure copies of any video capturing the accident from traffic lights or businesses close by and whatever else is necessary. We also provide full and personalized support to our clients and set swiftly toward reaching favorable settlements or verdicts through trial.
