FIGHTING FOR YOU IN TEXAS CAR ACCIDENTS

If you’ve recently been injured in a car accident, I will fight to help you seek the money your insurance company and the other driver's insurance company owe you.

I offer my extensive experience in formulating strong cases and fighting for people in court. For car accidents, this includes examining the scene of the accident and investigating the other party's driving history. Of course, an in-depth look into the insurance contracts of both parties is also required. For instance, even if you don't have health insurance, your car insurance may help cover you and your family's medical expenses. Collecting the facts and a careful study of the case ensures that the insurance companies surrender all the benefits to which you are entitled.

Remember, insurance adjusters may not know the laws in Texas and may keep money that is rightfully yours.

COMPENSATION FOR TEXAS PERSONAL INJURIES

If someone else’s carelessness caused your injury, you may qualify for damages. Texas law categorizes damages into two specific types: economic and non-economic.

ECONOMIC DAMAGES

Economic damages can be quantified and are typically easier to prove in an insurance claim. They can compensate for things like: 

• Current and future medical expenses

• Therapy costs

• Property damages

• Loss of wages

• Loss of earning capacity

• Funeral costs (in the case of wrongful death)

NON-ECONOMIC DAMAGES

Non-economic damages cover things that cannot be quantified. They are designed to make up for losses that can’t be reimbursed dollar-for-dollar, including:

• Physical pain and suffering

• Mental anguish

• Embarrassment

• Decreased quality of life as a result of your injuries

• Physical impairment or disfigurement 

• Loss of consortium (loss of relationship with a husband, wife, or partner)

An injury can affect your life now and in the future. My goal is to minimize its impact. Contact me today to discover the damages you may be able to recover. 

AFTER AN INJURY, I'M LISTENING 

If you are injured or overwhelmed, do not consent to the first offering from an insurance company. My goal is to allow you to heal both physically and mentally so you can get back to your life as soon as possible. If you lost someone or have received such serious injuries that your life is permanently changed, allow me to fight for you.

Your accident was unfortunate, but there is no reason for you to bear its full burden. I have the technical experience to deal with these insurance companies. Call my office in Austin, Texas, to start moving forward. I also represent residents of Hays and Williamson counties.
