Pedestrian Accident cases in San Antonio
People walk everywhere in San Antonio — across San Pedro Avenue, Culebra Road, and Military Drive, near schools and shopping centers, and through busy parking lots. With Interstate 35 corridor freight and military-base traffic, drivers in Bexar County too often fail to yield, and a pedestrian struck by a vehicle almost always comes away with the more serious injuries.
Drivers generally must yield to pedestrians in crosswalks and exercise care everywhere else. If a driver hit you or a family member, a participating Texas law firm may review the crash and explain your options.

Why quick action matters in Texas
Texas generally allows two years from the date of injury to file a personal injury lawsuit, but much shorter deadlines can apply to claims involving a government entity — formal notice is generally required within six months, and some city charters shorten that to 30–90 days. Evidence also fades quickly. This is general information, not legal advice; a participating law firm can explain the deadlines that apply to you.

How long do I have to file a claim in Texas?
Texas generally allows two years from the date of injury to file a personal injury lawsuit, but much shorter deadlines can apply to claims involving a government entity — formal notice is generally required within six months, and some city charters require it in as little as 30 to 90 days. This is general information, not legal advice. A participating law firm can explain the deadlines that apply to you.
What if I was hit outside a crosswalk?
You may still have a claim. Texas's proportionate responsibility rule can reduce a recovery by your share of fault, but it only bars recovery if you were more than 50% at fault. A participating law firm can review what happened.
How much is a pedestrian accident case worth in San Antonio?
There's no set amount — it depends on your injuries, medical treatment, lost income, and how it happened. A participating Texas law firm can review your San Antonio situation and explain what a claim or settlement might involve. This is general information, not legal advice, and no outcome is guaranteed.
Should I accept the insurance company's first offer in San Antonio?
Be careful — first offers often come before the full extent of injuries and losses is known, and accepting generally ends the claim. A participating Texas law firm can review whether an offer reflects your San Antonio situation. This is general information, not legal advice.

It varies widely — some matters resolve in months, while disputed cases can take a year or more. Acting early, preserving evidence, and getting treatment documented all help.
