Car Accident Attorneys with a Track Record of Results
Our Rockwall attorneys have successfully resolved thousands of car crash and wrongful death cases over the past 50 years for motor vehicle accidents involving:
- Car
- Trucks
- Buses
- Trains
- Semi, tractor-trailer, and big rigs
- Taxis, vans, or delivery trucks
Our success is the result of solid preparation, investigative resources, and deep legal knowledge. In fact, our thorough preparation of cases has allowed us to break new ground in cases involving defective products that cause harm, like defective auto parts or faulty safety features.
We Have the Resources to Investigate Motor Vehicle Accidents
Our Rockwall lawyers also handle car accident claims involving more typical examples of negligent or reckless driving, such as:
- Distracted driving is a huge problem all over the U.S., particularly among teens. Drivers who are texting are six times more likely to cause a car crash.
- Drunk driving or driving under the influence of marijuana or other drugs.
- Tailgating, speeding, and distracted driving are all common causes of rear-end collisions and whiplash injuries.
- Speeding to outrun a red light is a common cause of side impact collisions in intersection accidents.
- Improper turns across traffic result in T-bone crashes.
The value of working with an established law firm like ours, with decades of experience, is our proven ability to investigate collisions and crashes. A full and fair financial recovery should cover:
- Current and future medical treatment
- Repairs or replacement of a vehicle
- Lost wages for the time you are off work
- Future expenses if your injuries result in disability
- Future loss of wages if you can no longer do the job you once did
- And more
We prepare every case as if it will go to trial, so we are fully prepared to back up our claim for fault and financial recovery. If you lost an immediate family member in a car crash, you may be eligible to bring a wrongful death claim against the insurers. This is somewhat different from a personal injury claim in terms of who can be compensated and what they can be compensated for. Talk with one of our wrongful death attorneys to learn more about these cases.
What Happens If the Motorist Was Uninsured?
In Texas, as many as 20% of drivers are uninsured. It’s one of the highest rates in the nation. On top of that, Texas only requires that drivers carry $30,000 of liability insurance for a single person injured in an accident, and $60,000 for all people injured in a crash, with $25,000 for property damage.
Any serious injury can exceed that policy limit. And most cars exceed that value in property damage. It’s not unusual that a personal injury claim may need to include the victim’s own uninsured and underinsured motorist policy. Our Rockwall car crash lawyers can help you navigate all the legal complexities of your case.
