Even when a pedestrian carefully follows the pedestrian safety laws included in the Texas Transportation Code, they remain vulnerable to severe injuries due to motorists who fail to take reasonable precautions.

If you or a close family member suffered serious injuries in a pedestrian accident in Farmers Branch or the surrounding area, reach out to GreeningLaw today to learn your rights and options for financial recovery.

Why You Should Select GreeningLaw to Handle Your Pedestrian Accident Claim in Farmers Branch, Texas

Most pedestrian accidents are serious or catastrophic, with extensive damages. Even if you were fortunate enough to escape with only minor injuries, if they caused damages like medical expenses and lost wages, you don’t have to be left with the financial consequences. By choosing GreeningLaw, you’ll have the following advantages:

  • Over 40 years of experience behind your claim, bringing years of knowledge and resources to the table
  • We conduct thorough investigations and gather ample compelling evidence of liability to maximize your chances of obtaining a fair settlement rather than going to court
  • A Farmers Branch personal injury attorney who takes the time to get to know you and see the impacts of the injury on your life so they can convey your story more effectively to the insurance company or in court

You can expect a free consultation and contingency-based payment, so you only pay us after we recover your settlement or win your case.

Are Pedestrians Ever Liable for Damages in Collisions With Vehicles?

It’s rare for a pedestrian to be at fault for an accident unless they took a reckless action and darted in front of moving traffic; however, insurance companies try to shift liability to injury victims to reduce their payout by the percentage of fault assigned to them under the Texas comparative negligence law. Under this rule, if the insurance company assigns a pedestrian 25% of the fault for wearing dark clothes at twilight, they can reduce a $100,000 claim to $75,000. By hiring an assertive attorney, you have protection against these and other tactics that are not conducive to your best interests.

What are the Common Causes of Farmers Branch Pedestrian Accident Cases?

Driver negligence is by far the leading cause of injuries to pedestrians in Texas and elsewhere. Common driver actions that jeopardize the lives and safety of Farmers Branch pedestrians include the following:

  • Speeding
  • Distracted driving
  • Aggressive driving
  • Failure to yield the right of way at a crosswalk
  • Impaired driving

Less commonly, defective auto parts, such as brake failures, steering system failures, or tire blowouts, result in a driver’s loss of control and injuries to nearby pedestrians.

What Can I Recover In a Pedestrian Accident Claim?

Because exposed pedestrians are vulnerable to severe or catastrophic injuries, pedestrian accident claims tend to involve expensive damages such as the following:

  • Reimbursement for medical expenses
  • Future medical costs
  • Out-of-pocket costs
  • Lost wages
  • Future lost earnings or diminished earning capacity
  • Compensation for pain and suffering
  • Compensation for additional damages that sometimes apply, like disfigurement, scarring, loss of limb, or loss of enjoyment of life.

If a pedestrian accident causes the death of a loved one, family members may seek compensation through a wrongful death claim.

Call the Farmers Branch Pedestrian Accident Lawyers at GreeningLaw

Even if you feel your case is straightforward and a driver is clearly at fault, it’s important to understand that the driver’s insurance company may quickly offer a low settlement or use other tactics to undervalue your compensation unless you have assertive, proactive legal counsel on your side. Instead of taking on a challenging process alone, call the compassionate, experienced Farmers Branch accident lawyers at GreeningLaw.
