Proving Driver Fault At Pueblo Boulevard, Northern Avenue, And I-25 Crash Sites
McCormick & Murphy are Pueblo pedestrian accident lawyers for people hit while walking. We get the Pueblo Police Department or Colorado State Patrol report, the CommonSpirit Parkview Medical Center records, and file in Pueblo County District Court.
Pedestrian collisions hinge on proving the driver's breach of duty. That means documenting right of way, signal status, driver attention, and vehicle speed at the moment of impact. In Pueblo, accidents occur on controlled intersections (Pueblo Boulevard and Northern Avenue), along high-speed corridors (I-25, U.S. Highway 50), and in lower-speed zones (Downtown Pueblo, residential areas near Pueblo West and Bessemer). Each location presents different safety standards and liability pathways.
The injured pedestrian rarely has the resources to investigate alone. Police reports from the Pueblo Police Department or Colorado State Patrol may be incomplete. Witnesses scatter. Physical evidence degrades. We gather photos, video, weather data, signal timing, driver records, and medical documentation to build a complete picture of fault and harm.
Crosswalk Video, Skid Marks, And Parkview Medical Records Before They Disappear
We examine crosswalk markings and signal status, sight lines and lighting conditions, vehicle damage patterns and undercarriage marks, skid marks and final resting positions, and driver phone records or impairment indicators. Traffic camera footage—whether from private businesses or public intersections—often provides the clearest account of how the collision occurred.
Medical records from CommonSpirit Parkview Medical Center and ongoing treatment documents establish the severity of injury. Photographs of clothing, shoes, and personal belongings left at the scene reinforce the violence of the impact. Witness statements, dashcam recordings, and accident reconstruction expert analysis connect driver behavior to the pedestrian's injuries.
Investigating Pueblo Pedestrian Crashes & Main Street Client Office Access
McCormick & Murphy investigate pedestrian collisions from the Pueblo office by obtaining Pueblo Police Department and Colorado State Patrol reports, securing CommonSpirit Parkview Medical Center records, and filing claims in Pueblo County District Court when necessary.
- High-Speed Corridor & Crosswalk Evidence: We gather crosswalk markings, signal status, skid marks, traffic camera footage from businesses or public intersections, and vehicle damage patterns at crash sites on Pueblo Boulevard, Northern Avenue, U.S. Highway 50, I-25, and Downtown Pueblo. Each location presents different safety standards and liability pathways based on traffic speed, signal timing, and right-of-way rules.
- Parkview Medical Records & Court Filings: Medical documentation from CommonSpirit Parkview Medical Center establishes severity of injury, and police reports from Pueblo Police Department or Colorado State Patrol anchor fault analysis. When settlement negotiations fail, we file in Pueblo County District Court and prepare accident reconstruction expert analysis to prove driver breach of duty.
- Pueblo Office Location Anchor: Clients meet directly with our team at 301 N. Main Street, Pueblo, CO 81003 ↗ — with home or hospital consultations available if severe injuries prevent travel.
In pedestrian accidents on Pueblo's streets, critical evidence disappears quickly. Traffic signals are reprogrammed, camera footage is overwritten, and witnesses scatter. Here's what to preserve immediately:
- Pueblo Police Department or Colorado State Patrol crash report
- Traffic camera footage from businesses or public intersections before it's overwritten
- Crosswalk markings and signal status at the collision site
- Photographs of sight lines and lighting conditions
- Skid marks and final vehicle resting positions
- Vehicle damage patterns and undercarriage marks
- Driver phone records or impairment indicators
- CommonSpirit Parkview Medical Center emergency and treatment records
- Photographs of clothing, shoes, and personal belongings at the scene
- Witness statements and contact information
- Dashcam recordings from involved or nearby vehicles
- Weather data for the date and time of the collision
- Signal timing records for intersections like Pueblo Boulevard and Northern Avenue
Prompt preservation is essential in Pueblo County courts and protects your right to present the full truth about what happened.
Filing The Pueblo Police Department Report After A Crash On U.S. Highway 50 Or I-25
U.S. Highway 50 and I-25 are high-speed corridors where pedestrian collisions often result in severe trauma. Pueblo Boulevard and Northern Avenue carry mixed traffic and pedestrians through commercial and residential zones. Pueblo West and Bessemer include growing residential areas where drivers may fail to yield at crosswalks or intersections. Downtown Pueblo has dense foot traffic and complex signal patterns.
We know the roads, the traffic patterns, the seasonal weather, and the local law enforcement practices in Pueblo County. We work with investigators who understand how collisions unfold on each route and can reconstruct the driver's speed, attention, and decision-making at the moment of impact.

Do I Need A Lawyer After A Pedestrian Crash In Pueblo?
Do I need Pueblo pedestrian accident lawyers after a crash?
Call Pueblo pedestrian accident lawyers when you were hurt, fault is disputed, or an insurer delays, denies, or offers less than the medical bills. We meet you at 301 N. Main Street, Pueblo, CO 81003.
How much does it cost to hire your firm for a pedestrian accident case?
We work on a contingency fee basis. You pay no upfront cost and no hourly fee. We recover a percentage of the settlement or judgment we win for you. If we do not recover money, you owe us nothing. This arrangement ensures our interests align with yours: we win only when you do.
What is the deadline to file a pedestrian accident claim in Colorado?
Colorado law generally allows three years from the date of injury to file a personal-injury lawsuit. However, the deadline to file a claim with insurance and preserve evidence is much shorter—often 30 to 90 days. Delays can result in lost evidence and reduced leverage in settlement. Contact us immediately after a pedestrian accident to protect your rights.
Who is liable if I was hit by a car in a marked crosswalk?
A driver has a duty to yield to pedestrians in crosswalks and obey traffic signals. If the driver struck you in a marked crosswalk, the driver is presumed at fault unless evidence shows you were jaywalking or ignoring the walk signal. We investigate signal status, driver speed, and visibility to prove liability and build your claim.
What if I was partially at fault for the pedestrian accident?
Colorado follows comparative negligence rules. Even if you were partly at fault—for example, if you were wearing dark clothing at night or stepped into traffic—you may still recover damages. Your compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault. We present evidence of the driver's violations and your compliance with safety rules to minimize any reduction in your award.
How long does a pedestrian accident case take to resolve?
Most cases settle within 6 to 12 months once investigation is complete and demands are made. Complex cases, especially those involving significant injuries or disputed liability, may take longer. We pursue aggressive negotiation and are prepared to take your case to trial in Pueblo County District Court if necessary to secure fair compensation.
