Car Accident Attorney in Portland, Texas

Texas Department of Transportation Accident Report Forms

Victims of auto accidents are often injured due to the negligence of other drivers on the road. Many of these accidents could have been prevented if the other driver had been more careful or observant.

Car accidents can be severe due to:

• high speeds involved
• the vulnerability of unprotected drivers

Many types of injuries occur in an automobile or motorcycle accident, some of them catastrophic. These injuries include:

• Serious head injuries – from impact
• Lacerations – from flying glass
• Crushing injuries – in a rollover accident
• Broken bones and amputations
• Internal injuries requiring surgery

The costs associated with these types of injuries can be devastating for the victim and their family. For this reason, damage awards are available to victims of negligent driving to compensate for the harm suffered.

Damages are frequently awarded for:

• Medical bills and hospital stays
• Lost income from inability to work
• Vehicle damage
• Emotional distress from the accident
• Wrongful death
• Permanent disability

To pursue a claim for damages, you must show that the driver who caused the accident failed:

•  to exercise care or
• use safe driving practices

Every driver has a duty of care toward other cars or motorcycles on the road. Drivers will be held to that standard if they cause injuries to others.

To establish negligence, you need the representation of an attorney experienced in handling accident cases for injured clients, and who knows how to present the facts of your accident.

DISCLAIMER: Your case is likely to be referred to another attorney. However, this will be done with your complete knowledge and approval. If I suggest such a referral it will be because I think the addition of another attorney will assist you in your case. I will remain actively involved in your case and will continue to have contact with you. If this referral happens, your attorney’s fees will not go up. I will share my attorney’s fees with the other attorney. Also, if this happens, you will be fully informed beforehand and will be presented with an attorney fee-sharing agreement between me and the other attorney for your approval.
