Pedestrian Accident Claims – Barker Booth & Eastwood Solicitors
Walking, jogging or simply crossing the road should be safe and stress-free. But with more cars, bikes, motorcycles, electric bikes and e-scooters on our roads and pavements than ever before, pedestrians are facing increased risk. If you’ve been injured as a pedestrian, you deserve clear, compassionate advice.
At Barker Booth & Eastwood, we help people across Blackpool, the Fylde Coast and Lancashire make successful pedestrian accident claims, and we’re proud to support clients nationwide too. Our friendly, local team makes the process simple, supportive and completely focused on your recovery.
Pedestrian Accidents Are Increasing
Pedestrians now share space with more road and path users:
- Cars and vans
- Cyclists
- Motorcyclists
- E-bikes
- E-scooters
- Delivery riders
- Mobility scooters
More traffic, faster moving vehicles, and congested pavements mean that walking or jogging can be more dangerous than ever. When drivers or riders fail to pay attention, pedestrians often suffer the most serious injuries.
Common Pedestrian Accident Scenarios
We regularly help clients who have been injured in:
- Collisions with speeding or distracted drivers
- Drivers failing to stop at crossings
- Vehicles backing out of driveways or car parks
- Cyclists or e-bike riders hitting pedestrians on shared paths
- E-scooter users riding illegally on pavements
- Delivery bikes cutting through pedestrian areas
- Cars turning without looking
- Hit-and-run incidents
If you’ve been struck by any vehicle – including cars, bikes, e-bikes or e-scooters – you may be entitled to make a pedestrian accident claim.
What You May Be Able to Claim
Pedestrian injuries can be life-changing, so compensation aims to support your recovery and protect your future. You may be able to claim for:
- Pain, suffering and ongoing symptoms
- Loss of earnings
- Medical treatment and rehabilitation
- Broken bones, soft-tissue injuries or head injuries
- Psychological trauma
- Travel expenses
- Care and support needs
- Damage to personal items (phone, clothing, glasses etc.)
We always explain your options clearly, without jargon.
