02What we recover

What you can earn from your accident.

After your accident your money will come from a few different sources, here’s what we pursue, and what shapes the final number.

Medical care

We don’t abandon you to handle all those hospital bills yourself, they stack fast and we account for every dollar.

Lost income

You need to pay your rent, a car crash can stop you from doing so, we factor all your income and future earnings.

The harm itself

We understand the impact a car crash can have on your life, the hole that impact leaves is what we fight to fill.

Fault and coverage

You’ll be getting blame from every angle, we use evidence and communication to connect with the jury and reduce your fault, if any.

03What it’s worth

What can your case be worth?

Your payout comes from varying factors such as the coverage you have in place, the injuries you’ve sustained, and the evidence on the table.

We look through every corner to ensure that you are getting full compensation.

$10k to $75kMinor injuries; soft tissue that heals with basic treatment.
$100k and upMore serious injuries; fractures, injections, or surgery, with bigger bills and real time off work.
$1M+Catastrophic injury or wrongful death; built differently, and can reach seven figures when coverage and liability support it.
General illustrations, not a promise about your case. In Texas, more than 50% at fault can bar recovery. Past results do not guarantee a similar outcome.
04The crashes we handle

Not every crash is a simple rear end.

Who hit you, and how, changes who can be held responsible and where the money comes from. These are the situations we see most across Texas.

Rideshare

Uber & Lyft crashes

A logged in rideshare driver can trigger a million dollar commercial policy, but only if the claim is built to reach it.

Commercial

18 wheeler & truck

A commercial crash brings the carrier, its insurer, and federal rules into play, with logs and data that must be preserved fast.

No coverage

Uninsured & hit and run

If the driver had no insurance or fled, your own uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage often becomes the recovery.

Dram shop

Drunk driving crashes

Beyond the impaired driver, a bar that overserved a visibly drunk patron may share liability under the Texas Dram Shop Act.

Multi vehicle

Pileups & chain crashes

When several drivers are involved, each insurer points at the others. We sort out the sequence with the evidence.

Fatal

Wrongful death

When a crash takes a life, Texas law lets the surviving family recover for their loss. We handle these with care.

05The first week

What happens right after we speak.

After our call we hit the ground running, gathering evidence as quickly as possible and preserving what we can to give you an edge in court. Here’s a rundown of what we do.

1

Day one: the call

We run through your accident, how it happened, who was there, and what steps you’ve personally taken.

Why it matters: The minute you’re in a car crash the clock is ticking.
2

Lock the evidence

Our firm understands the importance of speed, we demand preservation of nearby footage, driver records and send spoilation letters.

Why it matters: Texas treats destroyed evidence as spoliation
3

Build the record

We pull the police report, identify witnesses, and connect you with care so your injuries are documented.

Why it matters: gaps in early treatment can put you at a loss.
4

Take the pressure off

We notify every insurer and take over communication, so the calls stop coming to you.

Why it matters: one recorded statement can undercut the whole claim
It’s personal for us

The insurance company will have lawyers. Now you do too.

You did not choose this crash, and you should not have to fight the people who caused it while you are trying to heal. You can focus on getting better, we handle the rest.

Insurance companies are built to pay as little as possible; that is the business model, not a conspiracy. My job is to make the number reflect what actually happened to you, and to be ready to try the case if they will not get there. You do not pay me unless I win.

06Common questions

Texas car accident FAQ.

Straight answers, specific to Texas, to what people ask most after a crash. Not sure how it applies to you? A free review sorts it out.

How long do I have to file a car accident claim in Texas?
Under Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code § 16.003, you generally have two years from the date of the crash to file suit. A wrongful death claim runs two years from the date of death. If a government vehicle or entity is involved, much shorter notice deadlines can apply, so do not wait.
What if the crash was partly my fault?
You can still recover under Texas’s modified comparative fault rule (§ 33.001), as long as you were 50% or less at fault, with your award reduced by your share. At 51% or more you recover nothing, which is exactly why insurers work to push blame onto you.
How much is my car accident case worth?
There is no honest average, because value depends on injury severity, how clear the fault is, and how much insurance coverage is available. Past results do not guarantee a similar outcome, and any lawyer who quotes a number before reviewing your records is guessing.
How long does a car accident case take in Texas?
It depends on the injuries and whether the insurer disputes fault. A straightforward claim can settle in a few months; serious or litigated cases often run a year or more. We do not rush a settlement before your medical picture is clear, because that is when a case is undervalued.
Do I have to go to court?
Usually not. Most Texas crash claims settle without a trial. We prepare every case as if it will be tried, because a carrier that knows we will file and try the case tends to offer more. If a courtroom is the only path to a fair number, we are ready to take it there.
What if a commercial truck or company vehicle hit me?
More parties may share responsibility, including the company, its insurer, and sometimes a contractor. Commercial policies are far larger than the state minimum, and federal rules require logs and electronic data that must be preserved quickly, so it is important to act fast before that evidence is gone.
What if the driver who hit me had no insurance?
Texas only requires 30/60/25 in coverage, and many drivers carry that or nothing. Your own uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage often becomes the source of recovery, and we handle that claim against your own carrier so they treat it fairly.
Should I talk to the other driver’s insurance company?
Not without a lawyer. A recorded statement is used to lock in words that can be turned into fault later. Let our office handle all communication so nothing you say is used to reduce your claim.
How much does a car accident lawyer cost?
We work on a contingency fee: nothing upfront, and fees are collected only if we recover for you. In most cases that arrangement also covers the investigation and expert costs along the way.
