While the law is often on the side of pedestrians in crosswalk accident cases, you may be surprised to learn that these cases can be hotly contested in court. If you or a family member has been injured by a car or other moving vehicle, you need a strong pedestrian & crosswalk injury lawyer to represent your case. At California Personal Injury Attorneys, we have the experience necessary to pursue justice and ensure you receive a fair settlement.

Clearly, being a pedestrian in California is risky business. If you or a loved one have been injured in an accident, you deserve to be represented by a lawyer who is highly experienced in pursuing justice for victims of pedestrian and crosswalk accidents. The concept of unmarked crosswalks is a little more difficult to understand. California Vehicle Code §275(a) indicates that an unmarked crosswalk may be located in an intersection where there are sidewalks on either side.

A cross walk is an area of the road that is set aside for pedestrian traffic. The term pedestrian includes those on foot, rollerblades, skateboards, etc. Many people are surprised to learn that there are two types of crosswalks in California – marked and unmarked. Marked crosswalks are easy to identify because the walking zone is delineated by white lines and, in most cases, signage on the roadway. Marked crosswalks can occur at an intersection or mid-block.
