What to Do in a Car Accident

Attorneys Helping You Understand Your Role In and After a Car Accident

Car accidents are a common occurrence in today’s world. Cell phones, CD players, eating while driving and other distractions make it such that accidents are unavoidable. This is why it is very important that everyone know what to do in a car accident.

Our attorneys have more than 20 years of combined experience providing car accident advice to individuals throughout Texas. If you or someone you know has been injured in a car accident. Let us provide you with the answers you need so you know how you should proceed.

What You Should Do at the Scene of a Car Accident

The best piece of advice we can give you if you are involved in a car accident is to seek medical treatment immediately. After you have exchanged basic information with the other driver and the police have been to the scene, accept any offered transportation to the emergency room. Explain any beginnings of pain to the doctor.

Getting medical care quickly and consistently avoids insurance disputes later on in the process, as insurance companies love to deny claims based on gaps in treatment or someone not getting immediate care.

The Steps You Should Take After Being Involved in a Car Accident

First and foremost, you should continue to receive medical care until your doctor tells you to stop. Do not allow any gaps in treatment to occur. You should then seek answers to any questions you may have. Our lawyers are able to look at and analyze your situation to answer the following questions:

  • Is my claim worth pursuing?
  • Is it necessary to get an attorney?
  • What does the process of pursuing a car accident claim look like?

Texas Social Security Disability Claims and SSI Attorney

At our law office, we assist people in Texas with their Social Security Disability and their Supplement Security Income claims. Whether you are just starting to file or you have been denied claims and denied benefits, we will fight for you.

Texas Supplemental Security Income (SSI) Claims Lawyer

The Supplemental Security Income system is slightly different than that of the Social Security Disability system. SSI is a federal program that is not funded by Social Security taxes, but by general tax revenues. It provides assistance to individuals who are blind, disabled or have lower incomes in order to allow them to meet their needs for clothing, food and shelter.

If you have questions regarding SSI and how to apply, or you have had your SSI claim denied, we can help. Our attorneys will aggressively pursue your right in court to see to it that you receive the compensation you deserve.

Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) Claims

Social Security Disability is paid through Social Security taxes and is meant to assist those individuals who have become disabled at work. In order to be eligible for this program, one must meet certain age and duration of work requirements. These requirements can be complex and confusing, making it critical to consult with a knowledgeable attorney prior to filing.

Our legal team will work side by side with you throughout your entire case. You will speak with the attorney handling your claim immediately, not a paralegal or legal assistant. We care about our clients and fight to see that they get the money they deserve.
