Common Injuries in Pedestrian Accidents
Pedestrian accidents in Fountain Hills are often severe due to the lack of protection pedestrians have compared to vehicle occupants. Common injuries sustained in these accidents include:
Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI): Head injuries are prevalent in pedestrian accidents, leading to long-term cognitive and physical impairments.
Spinal Cord Injuries: These can result in partial or complete paralysis, drastically affecting the victim’s quality of life.
Fractures and Broken Bones: Victims often suffer from multiple fractures, which may require extensive surgeries and rehabilitation.
Internal Injuries: Damage to internal organs can be life threatening and may not be immediately apparent after the accident.
Emotional Trauma: Beyond physical injuries, the psychological impact of a pedestrian accident can be profound, leading to anxiety, depression, and PTSD.
Why Are Pedestrian Accidents Common in Fountain Hills?
Fountain Hills, unfortunately, has a higher rate of pedestrian accidents. Several factors contribute to this, including:
Distracted Driving: With the rise of smartphones, distracted driving has become a leading cause of pedestrian accidents.
Speeding: Drivers exceeding speed limits pose a significant risk to pedestrians, especially in residential areas.
Failure to Yield: Many accidents occur when drivers fail to yield the right of way to pedestrians at crosswalks and intersections.
Poor Lighting: Insufficient street lighting can make it difficult for drivers to see pedestrians, particularly at night.

Let me start off by saying that if your looking for someone who is kind thoughtful professional down to earth easy to communicate with & is very pro active in how they do business & is 100% invested in you & getting the best outcome for whatever your situation may be than I would recommend jonny & rowanna. This was my first time that I needed to find a lawyer who could assist me with my situation. What stood out to me was at the end of our zoom meeting I remember saying to both jonny & rowann that I'm not interested in moving forward because I was more at fault than the lady who hit me so in my mind I'm thinking we'll this guy probably isn't going to want to take my case because it seemed like it would be an uphill battle, & he responded by letting me know that he would like to take my case & see what he could do & bottom line is that you"ll either have more than what you have now or you"ll be in the same situation.
So I thought about it for a minute & decided to trust them to see what happens. So from that day on all the way til the case was resolved I've had a great experience with them. Rowanna explained everything to me in a way that was not complicated & always asked me that if had any questions or if I didn't understand she would ask. They are easy to talk with & made me feel like I was important & trying to get the best outcome for me. When my case was complete I was so grateful & appreciated for what they were able to do for me. Johnny & Rowanna are the best & will always have & want the best for you I know because they did that for me. Thanks again CHRISTOPHER

I worked with The Sorenson Law firm for about 5 months resolving a personal injury claim that occurred during a car accident I was in and I couldn't have been more happy with results. The firm was always responsive, quick to answer any questions I had and I could tell they had my best interest in mind. I would recommend The Sorenson Law Firm to anyone that needs a personal injury lawyer, they're great!

I cannot recommend the Sorenson Law Firm enough. After an accident, I was in a situation where I knew very little about my options. I reached out to my community for advice and Johnny’s wife was quick to put me in contact with him to get me some help. The insurance company we were dealing with was not the easiest, but Johnny and his team did a wonderful job at recovering my losses and fighting for me. Johnny and his team kept me well informed and educated throughout the process, which meant a lot as I was very naïve and knew very little going into this process. I feel fortunate to have crossed paths with this wonderful team, and if life ever throws another curve ball, I’ll be sure to use the Sorenson Law Firm again!!!

Sorenson Law Firm made a tough situation less burdensome for me and my family. Going through the lost of a loved one and having to instill trust in people you don't know is hard. But Johnny Sorenson and his associates were very caring, professional, informative and timely when it came to our case. I would recommend The Sorenson Law Firm to anyone that needs lawyers that actually care about their clients and not just a paycheck. I'm writing this as a thank you to their company and to the team that worked on our case. Thank you!
