5 Helpful Car Accident Tips1. Choosing a Car Accident Attorney

People often call our firm with questions about what to do when they have been involved in a car accident. What can be done under these types of situations? How does a client, under these circumstances, go about finding the right attorney for this type of case?
The most important thing that a client in these circumstances can do is make sure that they talk to a lawyer with a lot of trial experience in this specific area of law. Although it may seem straightforward, this area of the law requires a lot of experience. Building a strong case involves a number of factors, including getting the right type of experts and the right kind of medical treatment. You also want to be able to explain to a jury how the defendant violated the safety rules of the road.

It’s very important that a potential client or somebody in these circumstances look for a trial-experienced attorney. We at the Chavez Law Firm have this type of experience. We are trial-experienced lawyers, and we are here to answer any question you have about your case.

2. Common Mistakes After a Car Crash

A common mistake that people make when they get into a car crash is not immediately calling the police; another one is not going to seek medical treatment soon thereafter. Perhaps the worst mistake of all is talking to the insurance company adjuster before talking to an experienced trial-ready lawyer. Insurance companies are in the business of making money for themselves and for their shareholders. They’re not in the business of paying out compensation for those that have been injured, and they have an agenda when they reach out to you.

We here at the Chavez Law Firm are experienced trial lawyers. We welcome your questions. We’re here to answer your questions. Please give us a call and we’ll help you in answering those questions as best we can.

3. Determining the Value of a Car Accident Claim

Clients often ask us how they can determine the value of a car wreck case. One of the factors that goes into determining the value of a car crash case is how bad the defendant’s conduct was in causing the injury. For example, a driver being seriously inebriated obviously adds to what the case is worth. If you have a defendant driver who chooses to run a red light or tries to beat a yellow light, those are also factors that go into determining the value of a case. Other factors include medical expenses and how much a client has suffered emotionally and physically in terms of trauma as a result of their injuries.

If you have any questions about the value of your case or how to determine how much your car wreck case is worth, please give us a call at the Chavez Law Firm. We will answer your questions and are happy to do so.

4. Distracted Driving

A number one reason for car crashes in Texas and across our nation is distracted driving. You’ve probably seen it yourself – the driver beside you on the road is distracted because they’re texting or looking at something on their phone. We at the Chavez Law Firm know how to look for that type of evidence. If you believe you were involved in a wreck in which a driver was distracted and caused serious injuries to you or your family, please give us a call; we’re happy to help and answer any questions you have in that regard.

5. Filing a Claim Against a Drunk Driver

Sometimes, clients reach out to us because they or their loved ones have been hit by a drunk driver. Obviously, drunk driving is one of the most horrendous and serious types of crashes that can occur. We here at the Chavez Law Firm handle cases against drunk drivers and are experts in this area. We know that these types of cases are serious, and we give them the attention and resources that they deserve – serious attention and resources. If you believe that you have been involved in an accident related to the influence of alcohol or drugs, please give us a call. We’re happy to answer any questions that you have in those types of situations.
