Pedestrian Accidents
When two tons of metal meets a person on foot, the injuries are catastrophic. So is our response.
Pedestrian fatalities in Texas have risen sharply, with hundreds killed every year in crashes at intersections, in parking lots, and along unsafe roadways. Distracted, impaired, and speeding drivers cause most of them — and they all have insurance we know how to pursue.
Drivers owe pedestrians a duty of care, especially in marked crosswalks and residential areas. When they fail that duty, the result is broken bones, brain injuries, or worse. We make sure the carrier pays accordingly.
After an Accident
The first five moves.
- Step 01
Call 911
Get emergency response and a police report on scene. Refuse to negotiate at the curb.
- Step 02
Get Transported to the ER
Internal injuries and concussions don't always show on scene. Always get checked.
- Step 03
Capture Witnesses
Pedestrian cases hinge on third-party accounts. Names and numbers, fast.
- Step 04
Photograph the Scene & Vehicle
Crosswalks, signals, sight lines, the driver's plate, and any damage.
- Step 05
Do Not Talk to Their Insurer
Adjusters love to suggest you 'darted out'. Don't give them ammunition. Call us.
