Pedestrian Accident cases in Peoria
People walk everywhere in Peoria — across Bell Road, 83rd Avenue, and Lake Pleasant Parkway, near schools and shopping centers, and through busy parking lots. With rapid northwest Valley growth and Grand Avenue corridor traffic, drivers in Maricopa County too often fail to yield, and a pedestrian struck by a vehicle almost always comes away with the more serious injuries.
Drivers generally must yield to pedestrians in crosswalks and exercise care everywhere else. If a driver hit you or a family member, a participating Arizona law firm may review the crash and explain your options.

What if I was hit outside a crosswalk?
