Pedestrians Have No Protection — Your Lawyer Should Fight Like It
When a vehicle strikes a pedestrian, the outcome is almost always catastrophic. No airbags. No seatbelt. No steel frame. Pedestrians absorb the full force of a collision and suffer injuries that change their lives permanently.
Insurance companies know this — and they also know that pedestrian accident claims are among the highest-value cases in personal injury law. Their response is to move fast, dispute fault, and look for any reason to reduce what they owe. Common tactics include arguing that the pedestrian was jaywalking, distracted, or partially at fault under Colorado’s modified comparative negligence rules.
Zobel Legal Group does not let that happen. We investigate the accident, preserve evidence, and build a case that puts maximum pressure on the insurance company from day one.

Where Pedestrian Accidents Happen in Greeley
Greeley’s combination of high-traffic commercial corridors, active university neighborhoods, and busy agricultural routes creates consistent pedestrian danger. We regularly handle cases involving accidents on:
- 23rd Avenue — high-speed commercial traffic with limited pedestrian infrastructure
- 10th Street corridor — heavy retail and business traffic through central Greeley
- University of Northern Colorado campus area — student pedestrian traffic intersecting with vehicle traffic on Shields Street and 20th Street
- 35th Avenue between Evans and Greeley — shopping center access points with frequent turning vehicles
- US-34 and US-85 intersections — high-speed arterials where pedestrian crossings are particularly dangerous
- Downtown Greeley — 8th and 9th Avenue retail corridors with mixed vehicle and foot traffic
What Drivers Are Legally Required to Do — and What They Fail to Do
Under Colorado law, drivers must yield to pedestrians in marked crosswalks and at intersections. They must exercise due care to avoid striking pedestrians anywhere on the roadway. These obligations are frequently violated through:
- Failure to yield at marked and unmarked crosswalks
- Distracted driving — cellphone use, eating, in-vehicle screens
- Failure to check for pedestrians before turning right on red
- Speeding in areas with high foot traffic
- Driving under the influence
- Backing out of driveways without checking for pedestrians
When a driver violates any of these duties and strikes you, they are liable for the full extent of your injuries.
