Pedestrian Accidents in Florida
Pedestrians are some of the most vulnerable parties on our roads, which means that they are prone to the worst injuries. In 2016 in Jacksonville alone, 35 pedestrians lost their lives and hundreds more within the state were killed in that year. Family members might wonder how they can move forward after they have lost a loved one in a serious collision. Their first step should be to speak with a wrongful death attorney in their time of need.
