Question 1

How much does a car accident lawyer in Austin cost?

Accepted Answer

Nothing upfront. We work on a contingency basis -- you pay zero out of pocket. Our fee comes from the settlement only if we win your case. If we don't recover money for you, you owe us nothing. The initial 24/7 consultation is always free.

Question 2

What should I do immediately after a car crash in Austin?

Accepted Answer

1) Call 911 if anyone is injured. 2) Move to safety, do not leave the scene. 3) Photograph the vehicles, road, and injuries. 4) Get the other driver's name, license, insurance, and plate. 5) Get the police report number. 6) See a doctor within 24-72 hours, even if you feel fine. 7) Do NOT give a recorded statement to the other driver's insurer. 8) Call our 24/7 hotline at (512) 877-1389 before talking to any adjuster.

Question 3

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

Accepted Answer

Texas statute of limitations gives you 2 years from the date of the accident for personal injury and property damage claims. Wrongful death is also 2 years. But evidence vanishes fast -- camera footage gets overwritten in 30-90 days, witnesses forget, vehicles get repaired. Call within hours, not weeks.

Question 4

What if the other driver doesn't have insurance?

Accepted Answer

About 1 in 5 Texas drivers are uninsured. If you have Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM) coverage on your own policy, your insurance pays. We fight your own insurer hard because they don't pay friendly. We also pursue the at-fault driver's personal assets when appropriate.

Question 5

Hablan espanol?

Accepted Answer

Si. Tenemos personal bilingue disponible 24/7 para revisar su caso, explicarle sus derechos en Texas, y manejar toda la comunicacion con la aseguradora. No paga nada a menos que ganemos.

Question 6

How much is my Austin car accident case worth?

Accepted Answer

It depends on: medical bills (current and future), lost wages, lost earning capacity, pain and suffering, vehicle damage, and the strength of fault evidence. Most Austin claims settle between $15,000 and $750,000 for non-catastrophic injuries, with TBI and spinal cases going significantly higher. Free case evaluation in one phone call.

Question 7

Will I have to go to court?

Accepted Answer

Most cases (95%+) settle before trial. We prepare every case as if it will go to trial, which is why insurers settle. If your case does require trial, you have a board-certified trial attorney leading it.

Question 8

What if I was partially at fault for the crash?

Accepted Answer

Texas uses modified comparative fault. If you were 50% or less at fault, you can still recover damages, reduced by your percentage of fault. If a police report or insurer tries to blame you, do NOT accept it without legal review. We see partial-fault findings overturned regularly.

Question 9

How fast can I get money for my medical bills?

Accepted Answer

We can arrange for treatment on a Letter of Protection (LOP) -- meaning your doctor treats you now and gets paid from the settlement later. You don't pay out of pocket and you don't need health insurance to be treated. We have relationships with Austin orthopedists, neurologists, and chiropractors.

Question 10

Do you handle cases in Round Rock, Cedar Park, Pflugerville, and Williamson County?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We handle car accident cases throughout the entire Austin metro -- Travis, Williamson, Hays, and Bastrop counties. We come to you if you're injured or in the hospital.
