Pedestrians have no protection against moving motor vehicles. When a vehicle strikes a human body, severe trauma like pelvic fractures, internal organ ruptures, and traumatic brain injuries are common. Drivers often fail to observe pedestrians due to speeding, mobile phone distraction, or failing to yield on right turns. SCV Law Firm, PLLC fights for pedestrian victims, demanding that insurers pay for long-term care and rehabilitation.
Pedestrian fatalities represent roughly one out of every five traffic deaths in Texas. Insurance adjusters regularly try to blame pedestrians by alleging jaywalking or crossing against a signal to trigger the 51 percent comparative fault rule. Our trial attorneys secure traffic camera footage and street-level surveillance to show that motorists had sufficient time and visibility to brake if they had maintained a proper lookout.
Urban pedestrian corridors in Downtown Dallas, Uptown, Deep Ellum, and transit stops along Harry Hines Boulevard and Ross Avenue see frequent pedestrian strikes caused by turning cars and delivery trucks.
