What a Texas Pedestrian Accident Attorney Can Do for You
After a pedestrian crash, the insurance company may begin reviewing the case before you know the full extent of your injuries. A Texas pedestrian accident attorney can step in early to protect your claim and help you avoid mistakes that may affect your recovery.
Tate Accident Law can investigate what happened, gather key records, deal with the insurer, and document how the crash has affected your health and daily life. If the insurance company refuses to make a fair offer, our team can prepare your case for litigation.
How Your Pedestrian Accident Case Works
- Intake: We start with a free case review so you can explain what happened and get answers about your next steps. If you hire us, we will open your claim right away. We also notify the insurers and send preservation letters to protect important evidence.
- Investigation: We gather the crash report, scene photos, video footage, and witness statements. In pedestrian accident cases, we also look for evidence that may show how the driver acted before impact. This may include traffic signal timing, nearby camera footage, cell phone use, vehicle damage, skid marks, and roadway conditions.
- Medical Care and Damages: We help make sure your injuries are properly documented. Our team tracks medical bills, missed work, future care needs, and the ways the crash has affected your daily life.
- Negotiation: We build a trial-ready demand that explains liability and documents your losses. We negotiate with the insurers and keep you informed before any settlement decision is made. You decide whether to accept an offer.
- Litigation: If the insurance company does not make a fair offer, we can file a lawsuit and prepare your case for court. That may include discovery, depositions, motions, mediation, and trial preparation. We keep you updated as the case moves forward.
Compensation a Texas Pedestrian Accident Lawyer Can Help You Pursue
A pedestrian crash can affect your quality of life for years following an accident. A Texas pedestrian accident lawyer can help document those losses and build a claim that accurately reflects how the injury has changed your life.
Depending on your case, compensation may include:
- Emergency care and hospital bills
- Surgery, rehabilitation, and follow-up treatment
- Future medical care
- Lost wages from time away from work
- Reduced earning ability
- Pain, physical limitations, and emotional distress
- Out-of-pocket costs related to the crash

Frequently Asked Questions About Pedestrian Accident Services
What should I do after being hit by a car as a pedestrian?
Get medical care as soon as possible, report the crash, and document what you can. Photos, witness information, the police report, and medical records may help support your pedestrian accident claim.
How long do I have to file a pedestrian accident claim in Texas?
In most Texas personal injury cases, you have two years from the date the claim accrues to file a lawsuit. Some exceptions may apply, so it is best to speak with a Texas pedestrian accident lawyer as soon as possible after the crash.
Can I recover compensation if I was partly at fault as a pedestrian?
You may still recover compensation if you are 50% or less responsible for the accident. Texas law bars recovery when a claimant’s percentage of responsibility is greater than 50%.
What compensation can I recover after a pedestrian accident?
You may be able to recover compensation for medical bills, future care, lost income, reduced earning ability, pain and suffering, out-of-pocket costs, and other losses caused by the crash.
What if the driver says I crossed outside a crosswalk?
You should not assume you have no case. Fault depends on the facts, including driver behavior, visibility, traffic signals, witness statements, and available video footage.
How much does it cost to hire Tate Accident Law?
Tate Accident Law offers free case reviews and handles pedestrian accident cases on a contingency-fee basis. That means you do not pay attorney fees unless the firm wins compensation for you.
Do I need a pedestrian accident attorney in McKinney or Sherman?
If your crash happened in McKinney, Sherman, Collin County, Grayson County, or another North Texas community, a local attorney can help preserve evidence, deal with the insurance company, and build a claim based on the facts of your case.
