Houston Pedestrian Accident Attorney
Drivers who do not pay attention and who ignore the rules of the road put the safety of pedestrians at risk. Many Texans are injured by negligent drivers while simply trying to cross the street. We understand how devastating a pedestrian accident can be and we strive to recover the compensation our injured clients need.
Things to Consider in a Pedestrian Accident Case
There are many variables to think about in these kinds of accidents, and our experienced lawyers will carefully consider all of them, including:
- Traffic signals
- Stop signs, yield signs and other warnings
- Right-of-way issues
Our pedestrian accident attorneys work diligently to recover all the types of damages that may be available, such as:
- Medical bills
- Past and future lost wages
- Mental and emotional distress
- Pain and suffering
- Future medical care
Hit-and-Run Accidents
Drivers sometimes flee the scene of an accident. Reckless acts like this can leave injured pedestrians without immediate assistance and fighting for their lives. If you are the victim of a hit-and-run, we can help you. We are committed to seeking justice and compensation for those hurt in hit-and-run accidents.
Without knowing the driver’s identity, getting compensation from that driver’s insurance company is unlikely. Normally, police investigate the accident and try to locate the driver, because a hit-and-run is a criminal offense as well. Our lawyers work with private investigators to search for the driver in addition to staying updated on law enforcement’s efforts.
Even if the driver is never located, we can help you make a claim under your own insurance policy’s Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist (UIM) coverage.
