Life and Work in Alamo Heights
Alamo Heights is one of San Antonio's oldest suburbs, an independent city with its own mayor, police department and highly regarded Alamo Heights ISD. Its tree-lined streets sit just north of Brackenridge Park, the San Antonio Zoo and the Witte Museum, and the Broadway corridor is full of restaurants, coffee shops and boutiques.
Because it's walkable and close to the city's museums and parks, Alamo Heights sees more pedestrians, runners and cyclists than most suburbs. That also means more conflicts between people on foot and drivers turning in and out of busy Broadway and Austin Highway businesses.

Alamo Heights Personal Injury FAQ
I was hit while walking or riding my bike on Broadway. What should I do?
Get medical care first, even if you feel okay. Then take photos, get witness names and call us. Pedestrians and cyclists are often badly hurt, and insurers often try to shift the blame onto them. We push back.
Alamo Heights has its own police department. Does that change my claim?
It changes who writes the crash report, not your rights. We request the Alamo Heights Police Department report, or the SAPD report if the crash happened just outside city limits, and build the claim from there.
I was hit by a car while running or walking my dog. What should I do?
Get medical care first, then write down the location, time and any witnesses, and photograph your injuries. Talk to a lawyer before giving the driver's insurer a statement.
How long do I have to file an injury claim in Texas?
For most Texas personal injury cases, the deadline is two years from the date of the injury. Some claims, especially against a city or government entity, have much shorter notice deadlines. The sooner you call, the more we can do.
