Proving the Other Party’s Negligence

To hold another party financially accountable for your losses after a pedestrian accident, you must illustrate the four elements of negligence. 

This requires gathering evidence to show:

  • Duty of care: The driver owed you a legal duty of care to drive in a safe manner in accordance with Texas’ rules of the road.
  • Breach of duty: The driver violated their duty of care by acting carelessly or recklessly behind the wheel. For instance, speeding breaches a driver’s duty of care.
  • Causation: The other party caused the accident. 
  • Damages: The accident caused you to incur financial expenses & losses.
