A pedestrian injured by a motorist, even at a low speed, is likely to suffer serious injuries that require immediate medical attention.
If you suffered an injury as a PEDESTRIAN as a result of a careless driver it is important to contact an attorney that is well versed in the laws and regulations governing pedestrian injury claims that will properly investigate the facts surrounding your case and apply the relevant law to ensure you are fairly compensated for your injuries.
You may be entitled to compensation for the following:
Medical Care (past and future)
Lost wages (past and future)
In Arizona, if you were a pedestrian that was injured by a negligent motorist you must make a claim for your injuries within two years of the date of the incident. In some instances the deadline to file a claim may differ. For example, if a government vehicle caused your injuries your claim must be filed within 180 days. It is important to hire an attorney that is familiar with the statute of limitations for your specific case to ensure your claim is filed on time. If legal action is not sought within this time you forfeit your right to sue the negligent driver.

Pedestrian Accidents in Chandler, Arizona: Busy Streets and Real Dangers
Chandler is one of the fastest-growing cities in Arizona, and with that growth comes significantly more traffic — and more risk for pedestrians. Corridors like Chandler Boulevard, Ray Road, and the busy intersections near the Price Road tech corridor see heavy commuter traffic daily. The areas surrounding Downtown Chandler, Ocotillo Road, and major retail centers along Alma School Road are particularly active pedestrian zones where distracted or speeding drivers put walkers and joggers at serious risk. When a vehicle strikes a pedestrian in Chandler, the consequences are often life-altering — and the legal process that follows can be just as overwhelming as the injuries themselves.
Why Chandler Pedestrian Accident Victims Need a Local Attorney
Arizona follows a pure comparative fault system, meaning insurance companies will aggressively argue that a pedestrian was partially responsible for their own injuries — even when a driver clearly failed to yield. In Chandler, these cases are handled through the Maricopa County Superior Court or Chandler City Court depending on the circumstances, and navigating local court procedures requires familiarity with the regional legal landscape. Arizona's statute of limitations gives injured victims two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury claim, but evidence disappears quickly — surveillance footage gets overwritten, witnesses forget details, and skid marks fade. Acting fast with a knowledgeable attorney makes a measurable difference in the strength of your case.
