Choosing Drafahl Law Firm To Be Your St. Louis Pedestrian Accident Lawyer
The Missouri State Highway Patrol reports that 130 pedestrians were killed and 1,128 pedestrians were injured over the course of a year on the state’s roads. Pedestrians are unprotected from the force or impact of a crash because they have no vehicle around with safety equipment to keep them safe.
Drafahl Law Firm is uniquely qualified to represent you after a pedestrian crash because of the skill and experience we bring to the table. You should place your trust in our firm because:
- We offer compassionate representation, with clients indicating they felt like family and praising the fact that we went the extra mile to recover more compensation than they thought possible.
- We can represent you in and out of court, as we have trial experience and have been named among the Top 40 Under 40 Civil Plaintiff Trial Lawyers, and we are also skilled negotiators.
- We are members of the Multi-Million Dollar Advocate Forum because of the large verdicts we have managed to successfully recover for plaintiffs in pedestrian accident claims.

How A Lawyer Can Help You Handle Your Pedestrian Accident Case
Our firm is committed to helping pedestrians recover full and fair compensation so they can be “made whole” after a collision. This means being paid for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and emotional distress.
We offer the legal advocacy you need and deserve to maximize your chances of a successful outcome. The services we provide include:
- Filing your claim within the five-year statute of limitations established under Missouri Code section 516.120 so your claim is not time-barred.
- Working with you to gather the necessary evidence to prove your claim, including showing that another driver was unreasonably negligent or was careless in a way that led to your accident.
- Developing a sound legal strategy to maximize your compensation, whether that means going to court or negotiating an out-of-court settlement with the insurer of the driver who was to blame for the crash.
- Proving the extent of your damages so you can maximize the compensation you receive and have enough to rebuild your life in the aftermath of the accident.
Pedestrian accidents often cause injuries due to the size difference between vehicle and a person. If you or a loved one was hit by a car while walking across a crosswalk, contact our St. Louis torn ligament and soft tissue injury lawyer to fight maximum compensation.
You deserve an advocate you can trust, and Drafahl Law Firm is here to provide the supportive representation you need from day one. Your consultation is always free and we never charge legal fees if we don’t recover compensation for you, so you have nothing to lose by getting help.
