Austin Car Wreck

Austin is one of the most difficult places to avoid a car wreck with the escalating population surrounding Central and South Texas. The recent oil drilling in South and West Texas only amplifies your chances of being involved in a car wreck in Austin or Travis County. Surviving a car wreck in Austin or Travis County does not mean your problems are over. If you are involved in a car wreck accident, there are many issues you want to address and consider regarding your accident. Car wreck accidents can be a long and difficult process. Hiring an experienced attorney will give you peace of mind and allow you to continue on with your daily life without the stress of dealing with car wreck until your case is settled. Car wrecks can range from driver error or negligent acts such a driving under the influence (DUI) which may require legal action so that victims can receive compensation for damages that occurred during the accident.

Financial Costs

Many Austin and Travis County resident drivers, who become car wreck victims, are sometimes left with immediate costs resulting from injuries or damage to their property as well as the long term cost of getting your life in order. Many injuries and damages can far exceed your income for an entire year. Unfortunately, many Austin resident drivers only carry the minimum insurance coverage required by Texas law and/or have no insurance at all. Depending on the circumstances of the accident; medical bills and long term rehabilitation costs can exceed what the insurance is required to pay. In the event of death, financial costs are often compounded by emotional distress.

Should You Seek Medical Attention?

If you are an Austin resident and are involved in a car wreck accident, you should always seek medical attention even if you do not think you have been injured. ALWAYS make sure you receive documentation of your medical attention so that you can prove the facts that will entitle you to recover damages for your injuries. Texas statute of limitations requires you to file a lawsuit within two years from the date of your car wreck to recover injuries and damages you have sustained in your accident. This is why it’s important to hire qualified experienced attorney to handle your litigation.

Important Things to Consider!

Many Austin resident car wreck accident victims do not consider what type of accident they are dealing with. For example, accidents involving 18 wheelers and semi-trucks are usually working for very large corporations who have attorneys on staff to help protect their interests. Additionally, laws vary from state to state. Many individuals, companies, and corporations do not act ethically when handling claims. Insurance companies are in the business of making money and protecting themselves so they don’t always work in your best interest. Car wreck attorneys ensure that you receive the fairest treatment possible for injuries and damages to your property. Hiring a qualified experienced attorney who can advise you of your legal rights, options, and protect your interests in the event of a car wreck is critical to your financial and emotional well being.
