Arizona drivers must yield to pedestrians in crosswalks (A.R.S. § 28-792), but pedestrians have duties too, and pure comparative negligence (A.R.S. § 12-2505) can apply if you crossed outside a crosswalk. The at-fault driver’s insurer owes your damages, and your own UM/UIM coverage may apply if they’re uninsured. The deadline is generally two years (A.R.S. § 12-542).

Not automatically. Drivers must yield in crosswalks (A.R.S. § 28-792), but crossing against a signal or outside a crosswalk can reduce, not bar, your recovery.
Your own uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage often applies to pedestrian injuries, worth checking even though you were on foot.
Paradise Valley’s scenic but busy arterials like Tatum Boulevard and Lincoln Drive see frequent collisions.
High-traffic corridors where we frequently see pedestrian accidents in Paradise Valley include Tatum Boulevard, Lincoln Drive, and McDonald Drive. Serious pedestrian accident injury claims arising in Paradise Valley are generally litigated in the Maricopa County Superior Court.
Paradise Valley is its own incorporated town in Maricopa County, neither Phoenix nor Scottsdale, and getting that wrong can mean serving the wrong public entity. A claim against the Town of Paradise Valley requires a notice of claim within 180 days under A.R.S. § 12-821.01, and cases are filed in Maricopa County Superior Court. The town has deliberately kept its roads rural in character: no sidewalks on most streets, minimal street lighting, and blind curves along Lincoln Drive, McDonald Drive, and Tatum. Pedestrians, runners, and cyclists share the pavement with vehicles on roads posted well above walking speed, which is why pedestrian and cyclist claims here tend to involve severe injuries.
