Fatal Pedestrian Accidents in Texas
Pedestrian accidents in Texas claim the lives of more than 700 people each year. These accidents are often preventable. However, we see a significant number of people harmed as a result of driver negligence. Many people enter roadways while distracted, impaired, or speeding. These and other reckless actions place the lives of other people traveling nearby at risk.
After enduring the loss of a loved one, most families struggle to move forward. Overcoming the mental and emotional pain and suffering seem nearly impossible.
