An automobile accident can be a devastating and life changing event.  This is especially true when a drunk or careless driver causes a fatal automobile accident.  These cases need to be investigated and it is usually necessary to have an experienced automobile accident lawyer help the family of the deceased locate all potential recoveries as well as prove liability.  Notice periods, accident investigation, and dealing with insurance companies are things that grieving families should not have to worry about. 

Likewise people that are seriously injured in automobile accidents, typically need to be focusing on healing and their health.  The last thing they need to do is to be interrogated by an insurance adjuster regarding the automobile accident. Unfortunately, it is extremely common to have insurance adjusters contact people injured in an automobile accident to obtain evidence to dispute liability.  Many of these recorded statements are taken when the injured person is still hurt and on medication.  If have been seriously injured in an automobile accident, it is often a good idea to speak to an automobile accident lawyer prior to agreeing to give a recorded statement.

Alcohol related automobile accidents are one of the leading causes of death in Texas as well as in the United States. Under Texas law a driver is considered drunk or under the influence if they do not have the normal use of mental or physical faculties by reason of the introduction of alcohol, a controlled substance, a drug, a dangerous drug, a combination of two or more of those substances, or any other substance into the body or if they have a blood alcohol concentration of over .08.   It is against Texas law for drunk drivers to operate motor vehicles, water craft, and air craft.  If the drunk driver causes an automobile accident or boating accident that causes serious injuries or death, they can be charged under Texas law with intoxication assault or intoxication manslaughter both serious felonies. 

In handling Texas drunk driver accident claims, it is important to review the police report and medical records to determine if any tickets or citations were issued or if any tests were done to determine if the negligent driver was under the influence.  It is also important to speak with witnesses to determine where the person was before the accident and what they were doing that caused the accident.  In many instances it is obvious if the person was drunk.  Evidence of drunk driving can include sporadic driving including driving at high rates of speed, weaving in and out of traffic, and not following traffic signals.  It can also include a person who is slurring, staggering, or out of control after the automobile accident that they have caused.   For more information on drunk driver car wreck claims, follow this link to Texas Drunk Driver Automobile Accident Claims or feel free to contact Austin Automobile Accident Lawyer Jason Coomer.

Texas Truck Accident Claims

Fatal Truck Accidents are too common in Texas and in Austin.  The Texas Trucking industry is a multi-million dollar industry that profits from hundreds of thousands of large commercial trucks driving on our roads and highways.  Whether you are on I-35, Mopac, 71, 290, Lamar or another highway or road in Austin, large commercial trucks are common.  Whether these large trucks are moving in and out of a construction site or traveling to make their next drop off, it is important to give these large trucks room. 

Unfortunately, these large trucks cannot be avoided and many Trucking Companies to save money use untrained, overworked, or inexperienced drivers and put stressful time constraints on these drivers causing the to rush to make deliveries.  These actions combined with poor maintenance can cause these drivers to drive negligently and lose control of their vehicles causing them to jackknife, overturn, or collide with passenger vehicles. When this happens it is typically the passengers of the smaller vehicle that suffer. If this has happened to you or your family, it is a good idea to obtain excellent legal representation to protect your or your loved one's rights and to make sure that an investigation as to the cause of the collision in done correctly.  Truck collision accident claims can be difficult to handle especially if you are recovering from serious injuries or grieving from the loss of one or more family members.

If you have been seriously injured by in an Austin Automobile Accident whether it is a truck collision, car crash, motorcycle accident, or other automobile collision, it is important to seek medical help to determine how to treat the head trauma, back herniations, broken bones, or injuries you have suffered. It is then a good idea to contact the authorities and/or explore a possible law suit to make sure that the wrongful act or hazardous conditions can be remedied.  Texans do not need dangerous truck drivers or negligent trucking companies making our roads, streets, and highways more dangerous.  Large commercial trucks that weigh several tons are dangerous enough when driven safely and when they are well maintained.  Deregulation of the trucking industry in Texas has made the number of dangerous truck on our roads and trucking companies operating on our highways increase dramatically.  Be careful out there and avoid being the victim of a truck accident or a serious truck collision.
