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.
SR 69’s approach into Prescott and the historic downtown around the courthouse square are common crash points.
High-traffic corridors where we frequently see pedestrian accidents in Prescott include SR 69, SR 89, Gurley Street, and Montezuma Street. Serious pedestrian accident injury claims arising in Prescott are generally litigated in the Yavapai County Superior Court.
Prescott is in Yavapai County, so cases are filed in Yavapai County Superior Court and a claim against the City of Prescott or Yavapai County requires a notice of claim within 180 days under A.R.S. § 12-821.01. At roughly 5,300 feet, Prescott sees winter snow and ice that rarely factor into Valley cases, and the mountain grades and curves on State Route 89 and State Route 69 produce rollover and run-off-road collisions rather than the intersection crashes common in metro Phoenix. The historic downtown around Courthouse Plaza and Whiskey Row concentrates pedestrian and late-night impaired-driving risk on narrow streets with limited sight lines.
We represent clients across the surrounding communities too, including pedestrian accident claims in Sedona and pedestrian accident claims in Phoenix.
