Frequently Asked Questions
Common Questions About Your Case
What rights do pedestrians have under Texas law? +
Texas Transportation Code § 552.002 requires drivers to yield to pedestrians in crosswalks. Pedestrians also have duties — to use designated crossings when available and to not suddenly walk into the path of an oncoming vehicle. CDF Law establishes the specific circumstances of your accident to maximize your claim.
The driver says I walked out without looking — does that affect my case? +
Comparative fault may apply if you contributed to the accident. However, drivers have an overriding duty to yield to lawfully present pedestrians, and this defense is often weaker than insurers suggest. CDF Law investigates the full accident scene to counter any blame-shifting.
