What is a Car Accident Claim?

Understanding Your Rights After a Crash

Looking for an experienced car accident attorney? Here’s what matters. Texas drivers must carry insurance to pay for crashes they cause. But insurance companies fight every claim to protect their profits.

When another driver hits you, their insurance should pay your medical bills, fix your car, and cover lost wages. They should also pay for your pain. But insurers use tricks to pay less or nothing. They blame you. They say you’re not really hurt. They stall until you give up. That’s where we come in.

Our Car Accident Legal Services

The León Law Firm handles every type of car crash case. As your vehicle accident lawyer, we know how to beat insurance company games:

Car Accident Lawyer

Our car accident lawyers investigate crashes fast. We get police reports, witness statements, and camera footage before it disappears. We prove the other driver caused your wreck and make their insurance pay every penny you deserve.

Causes of Car Accidents

We see the same causes of car accidents over and over. Drunk drivers. Texters. Red light runners. Speeders. We know how to prove fault and get you paid.

Types of Car Accidents

Different types of car accidents need different proof. Rear-end crashes. T-bones. Head-ons. Sideswipes. Each type tells a story about who’s at fault.

One in five Texas drivers has no insurance. Our uninsured motorist lawyers use your own coverage to pay for damages when hit by these irresponsible drivers.

Frequently Asked Questions About Car Accident Claims

Right After the Crash

What should I do immediately after a car accident?

Check if anyone’s hurt and call 911. Don’t move your car unless it’s blocking traffic. Take photos of everything – damage, skid marks, injuries. Get names and numbers from witnesses. Never admit fault. Call us before talking to any insurance company.

Should I go to the hospital if I feel okay?

Yes. Adrenaline hides pain. Serious injuries like brain trauma and internal bleeding don’t always hurt right away. The emergency room documents your injuries for your claim. Insurance companies use delays against you, saying you weren’t really hurt.

Do I have to talk to the other driver's insurance company?

No. They’re not your friend. They record calls to twist your words later. Let us handle them. That’s our job. You focus on getting better while we deal with their games.

The Legal Process

How long will my car accident case take?

Most cases settle in months. Complicated cases or stubborn insurance companies might take a year or two. If we have to go to trial, it takes longer. We push hard for quick results but won’t take bad offers just to settle fast.

Do most car accident cases go to trial?

No. About 95% settle without trial. Insurance companies know trials are expensive and risky for them. When they see we’re ready for court, they usually make fair offers. But we’ll go to trial if that’s what it takes to get you paid right.

Legal Rights & Insurance

How long do I have to file a car accident lawsuit in Texas?

You have two years from the crash date. But evidence disappears fast. Witnesses forget. Videos get deleted. The sooner you call us, the stronger your case. Don’t wait until the deadline gets close.

What if the police report blames me for the accident?

Police make mistakes. They weren’t there when it happened. We investigate beyond the report. We find witnesses cops missed. We get expert crash reconstructors. Many times we prove the report got it wrong.

Money & Compensation

What compensation can I get from a car accident?

You can get money for medical bills, both now and future treatment. Lost wages if you miss work. Pain and suffering. Mental anguish. Property damage to your car. If the other driver was drunk or texting, you might get punitive damages too.

How much is my car accident case worth?

Every case is different. It depends on how bad you’re hurt, your medical bills, missed work, and how the crash changed your life. Minor injuries might be worth thousands. Serious injuries can be worth millions. We fight for every dollar.

Will my insurance rates go up if I hire a lawyer?

Not if you weren’t at fault. Texas law says insurers can’t raise rates just because you hired a lawyer or filed a claim when someone else caused the crash. We protect you from unfair rate hikes.
