Motor Vehicle Accidents

Houston and Galveston Car Accident Lawyer

After a serious auto accident, the first matter of importance is of course the health and safety of any victims. Heavy traffic that flows daily along Texas freeways and streets creates conditions likely to result in car, truck and motorcycle accidents. People who have been hurt suffer immediate and long-term physical harm and financial damage. Personal injury law spells out the procedures by which those injured by others' negligence can receive just compensation for their injuries and losses.

Compensation after a car accident is intended to make a person whole again, at least monetarily, when the wrongdoing of other individuals or companies is the cause of an accident. At the same time, news of a large settlement or verdict after a car accident serves notice to other people not to make the same mistake and hurt others in the future.

A car manufacturer or service provider, another motorist or a contractor doing road construction with improper signage may be held responsible for injuries incurred in a car or truck wreck. After a truck accident, a close look at the driver's log might reveal whether the driver had been driving more hours than allowed by law.

People often think that they can make an insurance claim on their own after an auto accident. However, even attorneys who have been injured retain the services of personal injury lawyers after car crashes because they know that strong representation makes a loud and clear statement to insurance claims adjusters, judges and juries.

Insurance companies maintain legal staff ready to challenge claims, legitimate or not, so as to limit the insurers' total payout of benefits to injured claimants. Ibrahim & Elliott, LLP, lawyers understand the importance of examining and presenting all relevant details of an accident to demonstrate who is liable.

The attorneys at Ibrahim & Elliott, LLP, are ready and willing to play hardball as needed with insurance adjusters who may try to delay, deny or reduce benefits that an injured car accident victim is entitled to.
