Who This Page Is For
Pedestrians injured while walking, crossing the street, or in a parking lot anywhere in San Antonio.
Common Scenarios in San Antonio
Failure-to-yield crashes at busy downtown crosswalks, distracted or impaired drivers along commercial corridors, and backing-up incidents in shopping center parking lots.
Liability
Liability typically depends on whether the driver violated a traffic law or duty of care — failing to yield, running a light, or driving distracted.
Evidence That Matters
The police report, witness statements, and any nearby traffic or business camera footage.
Damages You May Be Able to Recover
Medical treatment (often extensive given the severity of pedestrian injuries), lost wages, and pain and suffering.
Deadlines to Keep in Mind
Standard injury-claim deadlines apply; seek medical attention promptly even if injuries seem minor at first.
Insurance Issues
The at-fault driver's liability insurance is the primary source of compensation; your own policy's coverage may also apply in some circumstances.
Comparative Responsibility
Even if a pedestrian wasn't in a marked crosswalk, they may still recover compensation depending on the specific facts and each party's degree of fault.
Local Context: Bexar County
Marco Bass Injury and Accident Lawyers represents clients throughout Bexar County, including cases arising along I-35, I-10, Loop 410, and US-281. Personal injury lawsuits filed in San Antonio are typically heard in the Bexar County District Courts or County Courts at Law, depending on the amount in controversy. Downtown San Antonio's dense foot traffic near the River Walk and commercial districts creates real pedestrian-safety risk at unmarked or poorly signaled crossings.
