What are the Most Common Causes of Pedestrian Accidents in San Antonio, Texas?
At the Hollingsworth Law Firm, our San Antonio pedestrian accident lawyers know that while the River Walk, which is mostly protected from vehicle traffic, is the main attraction in the city, there are many areas where residents and visitors on foot can be injured by negligence.
Whether pedestrians are sightseeing on foot, walking to and from their hotels, attractions, or even lunch, and are following the appropriate traffic signs and signals, using crosswalks, and watching out for negligent drivers, accidents still occur.
According to the Texas Department of Transportation, there were 824 pedestrian fatalities throughout Texas last year — a 15.24% increase from the previous year.
Some of the common causes of pedestrian accidents in Texas include, but are not limited to:
- Distracted Driving

What Forms of Financial Recovery Can I Pursue After Being Injured in a San Antonio Pedestrian Accident?
When a negligent driver collides with a pedestrian, the outcome is typically nothing short of catastrophic. This may include the injury victims suffering from fractured or crushed bones, and head, neck, and spine injuries that can lead to the loss of mobility and paralysis. Organ damage and internal bleeding also often occur during these disturbing crashes, as pedestrians have extraordinarily little protection during a crash with a motor vehicle.
This means lengthy medical care, surgeries, and rehabilitation and therapy requirements that can leave our clients out of work for months, years, or even permanently.
Our San Antonio accident and injury attorneys review each of our client’s unique cases to ensure we are pursuing the best financial outcome, which may include:
- Past and future medical expenses
- Loss of past and future wages

- Physical impairment or disfigurement

Steven and I attended law school together and I have known him since 2000. He was stellar in representing a close friend with a personal injury matter. I have been very impressed with his communication, dedication and thoroughness in representation.
Steve is the real deal! He is an extremely invaluable resource on all things Litigation for me as a younger attorney. He is not only great a securing the bigger verdicts, but actually cares about the clients and still sticks by his tried and true method of meeting, in person, with his clients to go over facts . overall, a solid attorney, with a wealth of knowledge!
After working with Steve for a couple of years, I found Steve to be an outstanding, aggressive and highly skilled lawyer in the courtroom. His confidence and knowledge of the courtroom and what it takes to succeed there, I believe will ensure his long term prosperity.
I had the pleasure of working on a trial with Steven last August. His background as an ADA is clearly evident in the courtroom. Steven's presentation of the evidence throughout trial is that of a seasoned attorney who has spent many hours in front of a jury. His opening/closings were excellent, as well as his strategic litigating throughout the trial. Steven is a consummate professional and a pleasure to work with, and watch in the courtroom.
When I met Steve, I was a legal assistant at a Plaintiff’s firm and he was working as an attorney for AIG. We connected there and then. Steve is a likable guy and an outstanding trial lawyer. He is charismatic and jurors like him. He is a Plaintiff’s lawyer now and he has the right skill set to represent injured individuals: he is compassionate, honest, and sincere and will go the extra mile for his clients. I’ve known Steve for almost 8 years now and I’m excited to see his career evolve.
