With one crash occurring every 57 seconds in Texas and over 250,000 people injured annually, motor vehicle accidents are a constant reality on our roads. At Attorney911, we understand the physical, emotional, and financial toll these accidents take on victims and their families. With Ralph Manginello’s 25+ years of experience fighting for accident victims across Texas, our firm has the expertise to navigate the complex legal landscape and fight for the compensation you deserve.

We’ve recovered millions for clients with injuries ranging from whiplash to catastrophic brain injuries, and we’re ready to put that experience to work for you.

The Reality of Car Accidents in Comanche County

The numbers paint a sobering picture: in Texas, someone is injured in a motor vehicle crash every 2 minutes and 5 seconds. In Comanche County, we see accidents caused by distracted driving, speeding, and failure to yield – all preventable behaviors that can change lives in an instant.

Common accident locations in our area include:

US-67 through Comanche
US-377 near De Leon
SH-16 and SH-36 intersections
Rural county roads with limited visibility

These accidents often result in serious injuries that can impact your life for months or even years. At Attorney911, we’ve seen firsthand how quickly a routine drive can turn into a life-altering event.

Common Injuries in Car Accidents

Car accidents can cause a wide range of injuries, from seemingly minor to catastrophic:

Whiplash and soft tissue injuries: Often dismissed as minor, these can cause chronic pain and require extensive physical therapy.
Herniated discs: These spinal injuries often require surgery and can lead to permanent mobility issues.
Broken bones: Fractures can take months to heal and may require multiple surgeries.
Traumatic brain injuries (TBI): Even mild TBIs can cause long-term cognitive issues, while severe TBIs can be life-changing.
Spinal cord injuries: These can result in partial or complete paralysis.
Internal organ damage: Often not immediately apparent, these injuries can be life-threatening.
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD): Many accident victims develop anxiety about driving or riding in vehicles.

One of our clients suffered a leg injury in a car accident that led to staff infections during treatment, ultimately requiring a partial amputation. This case settled in the millions, demonstrating our commitment to fighting for full compensation even in complex cases.

Why Insurance Companies Are Your Adversary

After an accident, you might expect the insurance company to help you recover. Unfortunately, their primary goal is to minimize payouts – not to ensure you’re fairly compensated. At Attorney911, we know their tactics because our associate attorney, Lupe Peña, spent years working for insurance companies. He understands exactly how they evaluate claims and how to counter their strategies.

Insurance adjusters are trained to:

Offer quick, low settlements before you understand the full extent of your injuries
Request recorded statements that can be used against you
Use surveillance to catch you in moments that appear to contradict your injury claims
Delay payments to pressure you into accepting less
Blame you for the accident to reduce their liability

Lupe knows these tactics from the inside. As he explains: “I’ve reviewed hundreds of surveillance videos and social media posts as a defense attorney. Here’s the truth: Insurance companies take innocent activity out of context. They freeze ONE frame of you moving ‘normally’ and ignore the 10 minutes of you struggling before and after. They’re not documenting your life – they’re building ammunition against you.”

Why Choose Attorney911 for Your Comanche County Car Accident Case

When you’re injured in a car accident in Comanche County, you need more than just a lawyer – you need a team that will fight for every dollar you deserve. Here’s what sets Attorney911 apart:

1. Insurance Defense Insider Knowledge

Lupe Peña worked for years at a national defense firm, learning firsthand how large insurance companies value claims. Now he uses that knowledge to fight for victims like you. He knows:

How insurance companies calculate claim values
Which doctors they use for “independent” medical exams (and how to counter their findings)
How to navigate the Colossus software system they use to minimize payouts
The exact tactics they use to delay and deny claims

This insider knowledge is our unfair advantage in negotiations and litigation.

2. Proven Track Record of Multi-Million Dollar Results

Our results speak for themselves:

Multi-million dollar settlement for a client who suffered a brain injury with vision loss when a log dropped on him at a logging company
In a recent case, our client’s leg was injured in a car accident. Staff infections during treatment led to a partial amputation. This case settled in the millions
We’ve helped numerous families facing trucking-related wrongful death cases recover millions of dollars in compensation

These aren’t just numbers – they represent real people from communities like Comanche, De Leon, and Gustine who received the compensation they needed to rebuild their lives.

3. Federal Court Experience

Ralph Manginello is admitted to practice in the U.S. District Court, Southern District of Texas. This federal court experience is crucial for complex cases, especially those involving:

Commercial trucking accidents (FMCSA regulations are federal)
Cases with out-of-state defendants
Product liability claims
Catastrophic injury cases

Our firm is also one of the few in Texas to be involved in BP explosion litigation – a testament to our ability to take on billion-dollar corporations.

Types of Motor Vehicle Accidents We Handle in Comanche County

Our firm handles all types of motor vehicle accidents, including:

Car Accidents (500-700 words)

Car accidents are the most common type of motor vehicle accident in Comanche County. With over 250,000 people injured in Texas car crashes annually, these accidents can range from minor fender-benders to catastrophic collisions.

Common causes of car accidents in our area include:

Distracted driving (texting, phone use, eating)
Speeding on rural roads and highways
Failure to yield at intersections
Running red lights or stop signs
Following too closely
Drunk or drugged driving
Poor weather conditions

If you’ve been injured in a car accident in Comanche County, call Attorney911 at 1-888-ATTY-911 for a free consultation. We don’t get paid unless we win your case.

18-Wheeler and Trucking Accidents (500-700 words)

Trucking accidents are particularly devastating due to the size and weight disparity between commercial trucks and passenger vehicles. In Texas, we see nearly 40,000 commercial motor vehicle crashes annually, resulting in over 600 fatalities.

Comanche County’s proximity to major highways like US-67 and US-377 means we see our share of trucking accidents. These crashes often result in catastrophic injuries due to:

The sheer size and weight of commercial trucks (up to 80,000 pounds)
Multiple liable parties (driver, trucking company, cargo loader, manufacturer)
Higher insurance limits (typically $750,000 to $5 million)
Complex federal regulations (FMCSA)

At Attorney911, we have extensive experience handling trucking accident cases. Our firm has helped numerous families facing trucking-related wrongful death cases recover millions of dollars in compensation. Ralph Manginello’s federal court experience is particularly valuable in these complex cases.

Key factors in trucking accident cases include:

Hours of Service (HOS) violations
Driver fatigue
Improper maintenance
Overloaded or improperly secured cargo
Electronic Logging Device (ELD) data
Black box/EDR data

If you’ve been injured in a trucking accident in Comanche County, call 1-888-ATTY-911 immediately. Evidence like ELD data can be overwritten in as little as 30 days, so time is critical.

Drunk Driving Accidents (500-700 words)

Drunk driving accidents are 100% preventable tragedies. In Texas, alcohol-impaired driving accounts for over 1,000 deaths annually – more than 25% of all traffic fatalities.

Comanche County has seen its share of drunk driving accidents, particularly on weekends and holidays. These crashes often result in severe injuries or fatalities due to:

Higher speeds
Delayed reaction times
Increased likelihood of head-on collisions
Greater force of impact

At Attorney911, we aggressively pursue drunk driving cases, including Dram Shop claims against establishments that served obviously intoxicated patrons. Texas law (TABC § 2.02) allows us to hold bars, restaurants, and other establishments liable if they served alcohol to someone who was clearly intoxicated.

Our firm’s unique advantage in drunk driving cases includes:

Ralph Manginello’s membership in the Harris County Criminal Lawyers Association (HCCLA)
Experience handling both criminal and civil aspects of DUI cases
Three documented DWI case dismissals that demonstrate our investigation skills

If you’ve been injured by a drunk driver in Comanche County, call 1-888-ATTY-911. We’ll investigate every angle, including potential Dram Shop liability, to maximize your compensation.

Motorcycle Accidents (300-450 words)

Motorcycle accidents often result in catastrophic injuries due to the lack of protection for riders. In Texas, we see nearly 600 motorcyclist fatalities annually, with many more serious injuries.

Comanche County’s rural roads can be particularly dangerous for motorcyclists, especially when drivers fail to yield or check blind spots. Common causes of motorcycle accidents include:

Failure to yield right of way
Driver inattention/distraction
Unsafe lane changes
Left-turn accidents
Speeding or reckless driving

Insurance companies often try to blame motorcyclists for accidents, even when they’re not at fault. Texas’ 51% comparative fault rule means you could be barred from recovery if found more than 50% at fault.

At Attorney911, we understand these tactics because Lupe Peña made these arguments for years as an insurance defense attorney. Now he uses that knowledge to protect motorcyclists’ rights.

If you’ve been injured in a motorcycle accident in Comanche County, don’t let the insurance company blame you. Call 1-888-ATTY-911 for a free consultation.

Pedestrian Accidents (300-450 words)

Pedestrians are the most vulnerable road users, and accidents involving pedestrians often result in catastrophic injuries or fatalities. In Texas, we see over 6,000 pedestrian crashes annually, resulting in nearly 800 deaths.

Comanche County’s downtown areas and school zones can be particularly dangerous for pedestrians. Common causes of pedestrian accidents include:

Drivers failing to yield at crosswalks
Distracted driving
Speeding
Poor visibility
Drunk driving

Under Texas law, pedestrians always have the right-of-way at intersections, even unmarked crosswalks. Many drivers don’t know this, and insurance companies won’t tell you.

If you’ve been injured in a pedestrian accident in Comanche County, call Attorney911 at 1-888-ATTY-911. We’ll fight to protect your rights and recover the compensation you deserve.

Rideshare Accidents (Uber/Lyft) (300-450 words)

Rideshare accidents present unique legal challenges due to the complex insurance coverage involved. Uber and Lyft accidents can involve multiple insurance policies depending on the driver’s status at the time of the accident.

The four insurance phases are:

Period 0 (Offline): Driver’s personal insurance only ($30k/$60k/$25k minimum in Texas)
Period 1 (Waiting): $50k/$100k/$25k contingent coverage
Period 2 (En route to pickup): $1 million commercial coverage
Period 3 (Passenger in vehicle): $1 million commercial coverage

At Attorney911, we understand this complex insurance structure because Lupe Peña worked for insurance companies. We know how to identify the correct insurance coverage and maximize your recovery.

If you’ve been injured in a rideshare accident in Comanche County, call 1-888-ATTY-911. We’ll navigate the insurance maze for you.

Hit and Run Accidents (300-450 words)

Hit and run accidents are particularly frustrating because the at-fault driver flees the scene. In Texas, hit and run is a crime, with penalties ranging from misdemeanors to felonies depending on the severity of the accident.

If you’re the victim of a hit and run in Comanche County, your Uninsured Motorist (UM) coverage can provide compensation. We’ve recovered substantial settlements for hit and run victims through UM claims.

Time is critical in hit and run cases. Surveillance footage is typically deleted within 7-30 days, so it’s important to act quickly. At Attorney911, we send preservation letters immediately to secure this critical evidence.

If you’ve been the victim of a hit and run in Comanche County, call 1-888-ATTY-911 immediately. We’ll help you navigate the UM claim process and fight for the compensation you deserve.

What to Do After a Car Accident in Comanche County

If you’ve been in a car accident in Comanche County, follow these steps to protect your rights:

Immediate Actions (First 24 Hours)

Call 911: Report the accident and request medical assistance if anyone is injured.
Seek medical attention: Even if you feel fine, get checked by a doctor. Adrenaline can mask serious injuries.
Document everything: Take photos of all vehicle damage, injuries, and the accident scene.
Exchange information: Get the other driver’s name, phone, address, insurance information, and driver’s license number.
Get witness information: Names and phone numbers of any witnesses.
Call Attorney911: 1-888-ATTY-911 for immediate legal guidance before speaking to any insurance company.

Evidence Preservation (Days 1-7)

Preserve all texts, calls, photos, and videos related to the accident.
Secure damaged clothing, glasses, or personal items as evidence.
Keep receipts for any accident-related expenses.
Request copies of all medical records.
Do not give recorded statements to insurance companies without consulting an attorney.

Strategic Decisions (Weeks 1-4)

Consult with an experienced car accident attorney.
If insurance contacts you, refer them to your attorney.
Do not accept or sign any settlement offers without lawyer review.
Upload all evidence to secure cloud storage.

Texas Motor Vehicle Law Framework

Understanding Texas law is crucial for protecting your rights after an accident:

Statute of Limitations

In Texas, you have 2 years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. This deadline is absolute – miss it and your case is barred forever.

Comparative Negligence (51% Rule)

Texas uses a modified comparative negligence system. If you’re found to be 50% or less at fault, you can recover damages reduced by your percentage of fault. If you’re 51% or more at fault, you recover nothing.

Texas Minimum Auto Insurance

Texas requires minimum coverage of:

$30,000 bodily injury per person
$60,000 bodily injury per accident
$25,000 property damage

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist Coverage

Texas allows you to stack UM/UIM coverage from multiple policies, providing additional protection if the at-fault driver is uninsured or underinsured.

Proving Liability in Your Comanche County Car Accident Case

To win your case, we must prove the four elements of negligence:

Duty of Care: All drivers have a legal duty to operate their vehicles safely.
Breach of Duty: The at-fault driver violated their duty of care (speeding, distracted driving, etc.).
Causation: The breach of duty directly caused your injuries.
Damages: You suffered actual harm (physical, financial, emotional).

At Attorney911, we gather evidence to prove liability, including:

Police accident reports
Witness statements
Surveillance footage
Medical records
Electronic data (black boxes, ELDs)
Expert testimony

Damages You Can Recover After a Car Accident

In Texas, you may be entitled to compensation for:

Economic Damages (No Cap)

Medical expenses (past and future)
Lost wages and earning capacity
Property damage
Out-of-pocket expenses

Non-Economic Damages (No Cap)

Pain and suffering
Mental anguish
Physical impairment
Disfigurement
Loss of enjoyment of life

Punitive Damages (Capped)

Available in cases of gross negligence or malice (e.g., drunk driving)
Capped at the greater of $200,000 or 2x economic damages + 1x non-economic damages (up to $750,000)

Insurance Tactics Exposed

Insurance companies use sophisticated tactics to minimize payouts. At Attorney911, we know these tactics because Lupe Peña used them for years as an insurance defense attorney.

1. Quick Contact & Recorded Statement

Insurance adjusters contact you immediately after your accident, often while you’re still in the hospital or on pain medication. They act friendly and helpful, but their goal is to get you to say something that can be used against you.

Common questions they ask:

“You’re feeling better now though, right?”
“It wasn’t that bad of an impact, was it?”
“Were you distracted at all?”

Our advice: Do not give a recorded statement without consulting an attorney. Once you hire Attorney911, we handle all communication with the insurance company.

2. Quick Settlement Offer

Within days or weeks of your accident, the insurance company may offer you a quick settlement – often $2,000-$5,000. This sounds good when you’re facing mounting bills, but it’s a trap.

The problem: You don’t know the full extent of your injuries yet. What seems like a minor injury could require surgery months later. Once you sign a release, you can’t get more money even if you need additional treatment.

Our advice: Never accept a settlement offer without consulting an attorney. We know these offers are always lowball – Lupe calculated them for years.

3. “Independent” Medical Exam (IME)

The insurance company may send you to an “independent” medical exam. In reality, these doctors are hired and paid by the insurance company to minimize your injuries.

What happens at an IME:

Cursory 10-15 minute exam
Doctor looks for any reason to minimize your injuries
Common findings: “pre-existing condition,” “excessive treatment,” “subjective complaints”

Our advantage: Lupe knows these doctors and their biases because he hired them for years. We prepare our clients extensively for these exams and challenge biased reports.

4. Surveillance & Social Media Monitoring

Insurance companies hire private investigators to follow accident victims and monitor their social media accounts. They’re looking for any activity that contradicts your injury claims.

What they monitor:

Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, Twitter
Photos, videos, check-ins, comments
Posts from friends and family that mention you

Our advice: Make all social media profiles private immediately. Don’t post about your accident, injuries, or activities. Assume everything is being monitored.

5. Delay and Financial Pressure

Insurance companies often drag out claims, hoping you’ll get desperate and accept a low offer. They have unlimited time and resources, while you have mounting bills and no income.

Our strategy: We file lawsuits to force deadlines and set depositions. We prepare every case as if it’s going to trial, which gives us leverage in negotiations.

6. Comparative Fault Arguments

Insurance companies always try to assign maximum fault to you to reduce their payment. Even small fault percentages can cost you thousands:

10% fault on a $100,000 case = $10,000 less for you
25% fault on a $250,000 case = $62,500 less for you

Our advantage: Lupe made these arguments for years as an insurance defense attorney. Now he knows exactly how to counter them.

Medical Knowledge Encyclopedia

Understanding your injuries is crucial for building a strong case. Here’s what you need to know about common car accident injuries:

Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)

TBIs can range from mild concussions to severe brain damage. Symptoms may not appear immediately and can include:

Headaches
Dizziness
Memory problems
Mood changes
Sleep disturbances

Even mild TBIs can have long-term effects, including increased risk of dementia later in life.

Spinal Cord Injury

Spinal cord injuries can result in partial or complete paralysis. The level of injury determines the extent of paralysis:

Cervical (neck): Quadriplegia
Thoracic (mid-back): Paraplegia
Lumbar (lower back): Leg weakness/paralysis

Secondary complications can include pressure sores, respiratory issues, and depression.

Herniated Disc

Herniated discs occur when the soft center of a spinal disc pushes through a crack in the tougher exterior. Treatment can range from physical therapy to surgery, with costs ranging from $20,000 to $100,000+.

Soft Tissue Injuries

Soft tissue injuries like whiplash are often dismissed as minor but can cause chronic pain. Insurance companies undervalue these injuries because they’re difficult to see on X-rays.

Why Attorney911 is the Right Choice for Comanche County Accident Victims

When you’re injured in a car accident in Comanche County, you need a law firm with the experience, resources, and local knowledge to fight for you. Here’s why Attorney911 stands out:

1. Insurance Defense Insider Advantage

Our associate attorney, Lupe Peña, spent years working for a national insurance defense firm. He knows exactly how insurance companies evaluate claims, which doctors they use for “independent” medical exams, and how to beat their algorithms.

Multi-million dollar settlement for a brain injury with vision loss
Millions recovered for a car accident victim who required a partial amputation

What should I do immediately after a car accident in Comanche County?

Call 911 and report the accident
Seek medical attention even if you feel fine
Document everything: photos of damage, injuries, scene
Exchange information with the other driver
Get witness names and phone numbers
Do NOT give a recorded statement to any insurance company
Call Attorney911 at 1-888-ATTY-911 for immediate legal guidance

Should I call the police even for a minor accident?

Yes. Always call the police. The police report is critical evidence. In Texas, you must report accidents with injuries, deaths, or property damage over $1,000.

Should I seek medical attention if I don’t feel hurt?

Absolutely. Many serious injuries don’t show symptoms immediately:

Traumatic brain injuries can take days to manifest
Internal bleeding may not be obvious
Herniated discs may not cause pain for weeks
Adrenaline masks pain at the scene

Insurance companies use delays in treatment against you. Get checked immediately.

What information should I collect at the scene?

Other driver: name, phone, address, driver’s license, insurance
Vehicle: make, model, color, license plate
Witnesses: names and phone numbers
Photos: all vehicle damage, injuries, road conditions, traffic signals
Police: officer name, badge number, report number

Should I talk to the other driver or admit fault?

Exchange information only
Do NOT discuss fault
Do NOT apologize or say “I’m sorry”
Do NOT give your opinion on what happened
Stick to facts only

How do I obtain a copy of the accident report?

In Comanche County, you can obtain the police report from the responding agency or through the Texas Department of Transportation’s Crash Records Information System (CRIS).

Should I give a recorded statement to insurance?

To the other driver’s insurance: NO. Not without an attorney.
To your own insurance: You have a duty to cooperate, but call Attorney911 first. We can advise you.

What if the other driver’s insurance contacts me?

Say: “I need to speak with my attorney first.” Give only basic information (name, date of accident, that you were involved). Do NOT give a recorded statement. Do NOT discuss injuries or fault.

Do I have to accept the insurance company’s estimate?

No. Their estimate is just an offer. It’s usually far below actual value. Attorney911 fights for what your case is really worth.

Should I accept a quick settlement offer?

NEVER accept a settlement before knowing the full extent of your injuries. Once you sign a release, you cannot get more money even if you need surgery later.

What if the other driver is uninsured/underinsured?

Your own UM/UIM coverage can compensate you. Watch our video on Uninsured & Underinsured Motorists at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kWcNFyb-Yq8.

Why does insurance want me to sign a medical authorization?

They want unlimited access to your ENTIRE medical history to find pre-existing conditions to use against you. Never sign without attorney review.

Do I have a personal injury case?

You may have a case if:

Someone else was at fault (even partially)
You suffered injuries or damages
There is insurance to recover from

Watch our video “Do I Have a Good Case?” at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j-PMMP5Jims.

When should I hire a car accident lawyer?

Immediately. Evidence disappears daily. Insurance companies start building their defense against you from day one. Call Attorney911 at 1-888-ATTY-911.

How much time do I have to file (statute of limitations)?

In Texas: 2 years from the date of the accident for personal injury, 2 years from the date of death for wrongful death. Miss it = case barred forever.

What is comparative negligence and how does it affect me?

Texas uses the 51% bar rule. If you’re 50% or less at fault, you can recover (reduced by your fault %). If 51%+ at fault, you get nothing.

Watch our video “What Is Comparative Negligence?” at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=agzHKY_v9l4.

What happens if I was partially at fault?

You can still recover if you were 50% or less at fault. Your recovery is reduced by your percentage of fault.

Will my case go to trial?

Most cases settle before trial. But Attorney911 prepares every case AS IF it’s going to trial. That’s what gives us leverage.

Watch our video “Will Your Case Go to Trial?” at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Ed5AnmCMcc.

How long will my case take to settle?

Depends on injury severity. We don’t settle until you’ve reached maximum medical improvement (MMI). Could be 6 months for minor injuries, 18-24 months for serious injuries.

What is the legal process step-by-step?

Investigation and evidence gathering
Medical treatment to MMI
Demand letter to insurance
Negotiation
Lawsuit if necessary
Discovery
Mediation
Trial if needed

Watch our video “What Is the Process for a Personal Injury Claim?” at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XwzYymneDVs.

What is my case worth?

Depends on: injury severity, medical costs, lost wages, permanent impairment, pain and suffering, insurance available. Cases range from $15,000 (soft tissue) to millions (catastrophic injury).

What types of damages can I recover?

Medical expenses (past and future)
Lost wages and earning capacity
Pain and suffering
Mental anguish
Physical impairment
Disfigurement
Loss of enjoyment of life
Property damage

Can I get compensation for pain and suffering?

Yes. Pain and suffering is a significant component of personal injury cases in Texas. There is NO CAP on pain and suffering (except medical malpractice).

What if I have a pre-existing condition?

You can still recover if the accident aggravated or worsened your pre-existing condition. This is called the “eggshell plaintiff” rule.

Can I switch attorneys if I’m unhappy with my current lawyer?

YES. You can fire your attorney at any time. If your attorney isn’t communicating, isn’t fighting for you, or is pushing you to settle cheap, you have the right to switch. Attorney911 has taken over many cases from other attorneys. Call 1-888-ATTY-911 to discuss switching.

What if the insurance company is my own insurance (UM/UIM claim)?

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist claims are against YOUR insurance when the other driver has no insurance or insufficient insurance. Your insurance company will fight your claim just like the other driver’s insurance would. You need attorney representation.

How do you calculate pain and suffering?

Most commonly using the multiplier method: Medical expenses × multiplier (1.5 to 5) = pain & suffering. Multiplier depends on injury severity, permanency, impact on life, clear liability. Lupe calculated these for years – he knows how to justify higher multipliers.

What if I was hit by a government vehicle (city bus, police car, etc.)?

Government claims have special rules. You must file notice within 6 months (much shorter than the 2-year statute of limitations). Sovereign immunity protects government entities. Damage caps may apply. These cases are complex – you need an experienced attorney.

What if the other driver fled the scene (hit and run)?

File a police report immediately (hit and run is a criminal offense). Your Uninsured Motorist (UM) coverage applies. Surveillance footage is CRITICAL – most footage is deleted within 7-30 days. We send preservation letters immediately.

What if I’m an undocumented immigrant – can I still file a claim?

YES. Immigration status does NOT affect your right to compensation for injuries. You’re entitled to full recovery regardless of immigration status. Your case is confidential. We’ve successfully represented clients of all immigration statuses. Lupe is fluent in Spanish.

What if the accident happened in a parking lot?

Parking lot accidents are fully compensable. Insurance companies often argue “parking lot accidents are always 50/50 fault,” but this is a lie. We prove fault through surveillance video, witness statements, damage analysis, and traffic patterns.

What if I was a passenger in the at-fault vehicle?

You can sue the driver even if you were riding with them (friend, family member, Uber driver). You’re an innocent victim. The driver’s insurance covers passengers. No comparative fault issues (you weren’t driving). We handle the difficult conversation so you don’t have to.

What if the other driver died in the accident?

You can still pursue a claim against the deceased driver’s estate and insurance. Death doesn’t eliminate liability. The insurance policy still applies. The estate may have assets. Wrongful death laws protect both sides.
