Car Accidents
Unfortunately, car accidents are widespread throughout the state. Even low-speed accidents can cause significant damage to your vehicle and major injury to you or any passengers. Insurance companies always attempt to pay out as little as possible to victims of car accidents and try to pressure you to take the least amount that may not cover for medical costs and damages. We have experience standing up against the big insurance companies and getting you the compensation you rightfully deserve. Some of the most common causes of car accidents include:
- Distracted Driving
- Driving While Intoxicated
- Speeding
- Racing
- Reckless Driving
- Not Adhering to Traffic Laws
Motorcycle Accidents
Motorcyclists face a wide range of obstacles that other drivers don’t. Namely, motorcycles can be more challenging to spot. However, it is the responsibility of other drivers on the road to provide motorcyclists with the same respect as they would a car or truck. Unfortunately, reckless and distracted driving can lead to catastrophic accidents that cause damage to your motorcycle and, in some situations, even death. If you or a family member has been in a motorcycle accident through no fault of your own, our team can help you get the compensation you deserve. Our team will seek compensation for:
- Medical Care
- Lost Wages
- Physical Pain
- Property Damage
- And More
Boating Accidents
There are numerous lakes and waterways throughout Texas boaters can go to enjoy time out on the water under the sun. However, Texas requires anyone born on or after September 1, 1993, to successfully complete a boater safety course if they plan on operating a motorboat exceeding 15 hp or a sailboat larger than 14 feet. It’s the responsibility of every boater to ensure they are safe while on the waterways. However, intoxication and recklessness can lead to significant damage, injury, or even death. Our lawyers are well-versed when it comes to boater laws and can help you and your family receive compensation equal to your damages.
