Cumming Personal Injury Lawyer Pedestrian Accidents
Cumming Pedestrian Accident Lawyer
As Cumming gets more walkable, pedestrians face more risk from turning and distracted drivers. If a driver hit you, you'll work directly with Diana Swain to make it right.
Between 7am–10pm, we respond in 10 minutes or less.
More foot traffic, more risk
Cumming City Center, The Collection at Forsyth, downtown crosswalks, and the county's growing school zones are bringing more people on foot — and drivers along GA-9, GA-20, and Peachtree Parkway don't always yield. A person on foot has no protection against a two-ton vehicle, so these crashes tend to cause severe injuries.
Drivers and their insurers often try to blame the pedestrian. We establish the driver's failure to yield or keep a proper lookout, and we pursue full compensation for your medical care, lost income, and the lasting effects of a serious injury.
How we help injured pedestrians
- Establish the driver's right-of-way violation or distraction
- Push back when insurers try to blame the pedestrian
- Pursue medical costs, lost wages, and long-term-care needs
- Find UM coverage in hit-and-run cases

Frequently asked questions
The driver says I was jaywalking — can I recover?
Possibly. Georgia's comparative-negligence rule lets you recover if you're less than 50% at fault, reduced by your share. Right-of-way is rarely as one-sided as the insurer claims — we investigate it fully.
What if the driver who hit me drove off?
A hit-and-run is often covered by your own uninsured-motorist policy. We move quickly to find witnesses and camera footage and to identify the driver.
How soon should I call a lawyer?
As soon as you can. Crosswalk cameras and witness memories fade fast, and Georgia's filing deadline is generally two years — early action protects your case.
