A Personal Injury or Wrongful Death as the Result of a Pedestrian Accident in Mexico, MO Deserves Compensation 

Harper, Evans, Hilbrenner & Netemeyer will help you seek compensation in your personal injury case

When crossing the road, pedestrians put their faith in the drivers around them. Unfortunately, not every driver is a safe driver.

It comes in many forms including being distracted by surrounding traffic, a phone, passengers, or something as simple as changing the radio. In those moments of distracted driving, pedestrians are at great risk. In 2020 alone, 131 pedestrians were killed while 1119 were injured in pedestrian accidents. If you or your loved one was injured or killed by a vehicle, you are entitled to compensation. Harper, Evans, Hilbrenner & Netemeyer will help you through the process of a pedestrian accident case.

When a child is injured or killed in a pedestrian accident, Harper, Evans, Hilbrenner & Netemeyer will be there to support parents through their personal injury case

While adults are often victims of pedestrian accidents, children are also incredibly vulnerable. Not only do they lack the appropriate decision-making skills to safely cross the road, but they are also smaller and more difficult to see. Children who are injured or killed while crossing the street should be compensated for their injuries. If a child is killed in a pedestrian accident, the parents deserve damages to cover the cost of funeral expenses and non-monetary damages like loss of companionship.


Harper, Evans, Hilbrenner & Netemeyer’s personal injury attorneys have 100+ years of combined experience navigating injuries and wrongful death cases. We can guide you through one of the most difficult times of your life.

Common questions about pedestrian accidents in Mexico, MO

  • An uninsured driver hit me while I was crossing the street at a pedestrian crosswalk. How can I be compensated for my injuries if they don’t have insurance?

    Even though you were hit by an uninsured driver, you are still entitled to compensation for injuries. The state of Missouri requires all insured drivers to carry uninsured motorist coverage. This protects injured drivers and pedestrians who are hit by a car. Harper, Evans, Wade & Netemeyer will work hard to earn compensation for you after a pedestrian accident.

  • My partner was killed while jaywalking. Can the driver be held responsible?

    In cases of jaywalking, fault varies. If a pedestrian steps into the road and gives an alert driver no time to react, the pedestrian will likely be at fault for their injuries. However, if the driver is found to have been speeding or distracted behind the wheel, you may have a wrongful death case. You cannot know for sure without seeking advice from an experienced pedestrian accident attorney like the team at Harper, Evans, Wade & Netemeyer.
