Why You Need a Drunk Driving Accidents Lawyer

When you're dealing with a drunk driving accidents case, insurance companies immediately start working to minimize what they pay you—not to help you get better.

An experienced drunk driving accidents lawyer levels the playing field. They handle the insurance adjusters, gather evidence, document your injuries, and fight for every dollar you deserve. And because they work on contingency, you don't pay a dime unless they win your case.

What Insurance Companies Don't Want You to Know

  • Quick settlement offers — They'll offer money fast, before you know the full extent of your injuries.
  • Recorded statements — They'll ask for a recorded statement hoping you'll say something they can use against you.
  • Delay tactics — They'll drag out the process hoping you'll get frustrated and accept less.
  • Minimize your injuries — They'll question whether your injuries are really as serious as you claim.

Texas Laws You Need to Know

Statute of Limitations: 2 Years

In Texas, you have 2 years from the date of your injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. If you miss this deadline, you lose your right to sue forever.

Modified Comparative Fault (51% Rule)

Texas follows a "modified comparative fault" system:

  • You can recover damages as long as you're 50% or less at fault
  • If you're 51% or more at fault, you recover nothing
  • Your compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault

No Cap on Damages

Unlike some states, Texas does not cap damages in most personal injury cases. You can pursue full compensation for all economic and non-economic damages.
