Understanding Your Rights After a Car Accident in Houston

Car accidents can be a traumatic experience, leaving victims with physical injuries, emotional distress, and financial burdens. Knowing your rights after a car accident in Houston is critical to protecting yourself and ensuring you receive the compensation you deserve. Here’s what you need to know:

Key Steps to Take After a Car Accident

Document the Scene: Take photos of the accident scene, vehicle damage, and any visible injuries. Gather contact information from witnesses.
Report the Accident: Notify law enforcement and obtain a police report, which can be valuable evidence in your claim.
Seek Medical Attention: Even if you feel fine, some injuries may not be immediately apparent. A medical evaluation can document your injuries.
Avoid Admitting Fault: Texas follows comparative negligence laws, so even partial fault can impact your compensation.
Consult an Attorney: An experienced Houston car accident lawyer can handle the complexities of your case and negotiate with insurance companies on your behalf.

Dealing with Insurance Companies

Insurance adjusters often aim to minimize payouts. Avoid giving recorded statements or signing documents without consulting an attorney. A personal injury lawyer can ensure you receive a fair settlement.

Your Right to Compensation

Under Texas law, car accident victims can seek compensation for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and property damage. Working with an attorney increases your chances of recovering the full value of your claim.

Top-notch service from Mr. Joshua Daws! He was able to address and resolve my concerns that another firm was unable to do so (Salazar Law Firm). I was referred to Mr. Daws’s firm and I am grateful I crossed paths with him. Highly recommend working with Mr. Daws, you will not regret it! He was able to notify me of the offer that the at-fault party had sent, in which I was previously told there had been nothing. Mr. Daws is the real deal and will take any case big or small seriously. A very personable person and is always present to help and serve you! 👍
