Recovering After a Pedestrian Accident
Recovering from a pedestrian accident is more than physical healing — it’s about regaining stability, safety, and peace of mind. Seek prompt medical care, follow your doctor’s guidance, and document everything: medical records, bills, photos, and witness statements. Avoid direct contact with insurance companies until consulting a Houston personal injury lawyer. Under Texas Civil Practice & Remedies Code §§16.003–16.005, Texas Transportation Code §552.001, and Texas Labor Code Chapter 401, victims can pursue compensation. A skilled lawyer investigates the accident, identifies liable parties, negotiates settlements, and pursues court action to secure full compensation for medical expenses, lost income, and pain and suffering while protecting your rights.

Frequently Asked Questions
Ask everything you need to know about our services.
Seek medical attention immediately, even if injuries seem minor. Call the police to file a report and gather evidence, including photos of the scene, any vehicles involved, and witness details. Avoid giving statements to insurance adjusters or signing documents before speaking with a Houston pedestrian accident lawyer. We can investigate the accident, handle negotiations, and fight for compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and long-term care.
Texas follows comparative negligence rules (Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code §33.001), which reduces damages based on each party’s share of fault. Liability can include:
- Drivers who fail to yield at crosswalks or intersections, run red lights, or drive distracted.
- Shared fault if the pedestrian was partially at fault, such as jaywalking or ignoring traffic signals.
- Unsafe road conditions or defective sidewalks that contribute to the accident.
A lawyer investigates the accident, collects evidence, and determines liability. They negotiate with insurance companies to ensure your claim covers all injuries and losses, and represent you in court if necessary. Compensation can include medical bills, lost wages, rehabilitation, pain and suffering, long-term care, and other related expenses.
You should contact a lawyer as soon as possible after an accident. Delays can weaken your case, especially if medical bills are mounting, insurance claims are denied, or the responsible party refuses accountability. Early legal guidance helps protect your rights and maximize recovery.
You generally have two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury claim (Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code §16.003(a)). Wrongful death claims also have a two-year deadline from the date of death (Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code §16.002). Acting promptly is essential to preserve your right to compensation.
Most pedestrian accident cases are handled on a contingency basis, meaning you pay only if we win. Some services, like consultations or reviewing insurance offers, may have a flat or hourly fee. At Romero Injury Law, we keep costs transparent so financial concerns never prevent you from getting the help you need.
