Los Angeles Pedestrian Injury Attorney

L.A. Pedestrian and Bicycle Injury Lawyer

Accidents don't just "happen." When a walker, bicyclist, or a child is hit by a car, an inattentive or aggressive driver is usually to blame. My law practice is devoted to getting the maximum compensation for these most vulnerable victims.

The Law Office of Marvin S. Lanter has secured significant settlements and verdicts for people who suffered serious injury from being hit by a vehicle:

• Bicyclers hit from behind, at an intersection, sideswiped or "doored"
• Children crossing the street, or run over by cars backing up
• Walkers struck by cars that are turning or running a red light
• Pedestrians hit by a bus or commercial truck

Pedestrian accidents often lead to catastrophic injuries — multiple broken bones, head injury, and spinal cord injuries or death. I pursue every source of insurance to obtain the full damages my clients need to recover from these devastating incidents.

Putting Blame Where It Belongs

Defense attorneys try to shift fault to the victim: "She wasn't in the crosswalk." "The kid darted out." I keep the focus on the negligence of the person at the wheel of a two- or three-ton vehicle. What was the distracted driver doing at the moment of impact? Speeding? Yakking on a cell phone? Making an illegal turn?

Witnesses are very important. I go to the accident site myself to examine the scene and talk to people who observed the driver or saw the crash. I build the best case I can and push hard for a fair settlement. If the insurance company refuses, I can and will go to trial to get justice.
