Common questions
What does it cost to hire a car accident lawyer in Austin?▾
Nothing out of pocket, ever. We work purely on contingency, which means our fee only comes out of money we win for you -- if there's no recovery, you owe us nothing. The first call is always free, any hour.
I was just in a crash in Austin -- what do I do right now?▾
Call 911 if anyone's hurt. Stay at the scene and get everyone to safety. Take photos of the cars, the road, and any visible injuries. Get the other driver's license, insurance, and plate number, plus the police report number. See a doctor within a day or two even if you feel okay. Don't give a recorded statement to the other side's insurer -- call our hotline first.
How long do I have to file a claim after a Texas car accident?▾
Two years from the crash date, for both injury and property damage claims -- that's Texas's statute of limitations, and it's the same two years for a wrongful death claim. But don't wait: surveillance footage often gets erased in 30 to 90 days and memories fade fast. Call within hours if you can.
What happens if the other driver has no insurance?▾
It happens more than you'd think -- close to 1 in 5 drivers in Texas are uninsured. If your own policy carries Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage, that's what pays, and we make sure your insurer treats that claim seriously instead of stalling.
“Got rear-ended on MoPac during rush hour and thought I'd be fighting the insurance company myself. Called the hotline instead, had an attorney on the phone in minutes, and the whole thing wrapped up in under four months with a check that covered every bill.”
