How a Car Accident Lawyer Can Help
Car accidents happen every day on Texas roads. Some are small fender benders, but others leave people badly hurt or even take lives. After a crash, it’s normal to wonder: Who’s going to pay my medical bills? How will I make up for lost wages? What if the insurance company refuses to help?
That’s where having a car accident lawyer on your side makes a big difference. Our team can:
- Look into the accident and figure out who was responsible.
- Collect important evidence like police reports, medical records, and witness statements.
- Deal with the insurance companies so you don’t have to.
- Fight for fair compensation, whether through a settlement or in court.
We know how stressful life after a crash can be. Our job is to handle the legal side of things so you can focus on healing and getting your life back on track.
Types of Compensation You Can Recover
If you’ve been hurt in a car accident, the law allows you to seek different types of compensation depending on how the crash has affected your life. These damages generally fall into two main categories. In some rare cases, you may also be able to pursue punitive damages.
Economic damages
These are the financial losses you can put a dollar amount on. They cover the money you’ve already spent or will need to spend in the future, such as:
- Medical expenses (current and future): Hospital bills, surgeries, medication, physical therapy, and any ongoing care you may need.
- Lost wages: Income you missed because you couldn’t work after the accident.
- Reduced earning capacity: If your injuries affect your ability to work or earn money in the long term.
- Property damage: The cost of repairing or replacing your vehicle and other belongings damaged in the crash.
Non-economic damages
These damages are harder to measure because they deal with how the accident has impacted your quality of life. They include:
- Pain and suffering: The physical pain and emotional distress caused by your injuries.
- Loss of enjoyment of life: When your injuries prevent you from enjoying activities, hobbies, or time with loved ones the way you used to.
- Rehabilitation and ongoing care: While partly financial, this also accounts for the lifestyle changes and long-term adjustments you may face.
Punitive damages
In some cases, if the at-fault driver’s behavior was especially reckless or intentional (like drunk driving or extreme negligence), the court may award punitive damages. These are not meant to compensate you for your losses, but rather to punish the wrongdoer and deter others from acting the same way.
