Injured by a drunk driver, we can help

In Texas, many people have suffered from the negligence of drunk drivers. In most cases, the victim was simply at the wrong place at the wrong time. But, what happens when the victim suffers injuries that are severe or even fatal?

Most insurance companies will try to minimize their client's exposure to liability, simply by offering a fast settlement, and pretending that they are friends and looking out the best interest of the victim. Slogans such as "in good hands" are used to simply mislead the public.

Like most business, insurance companies are created to make money. They do not make money by paying out on all claims filed. When an insured is drunk, their potential exposure increases, and so should the payment to the victim. In many cases the insurance companies themselves contact the injured victims, so that they do not feel the need to contact an attorney.

When this happens, often is a fatal mistake, and one that insurance companies love to have to their advantage. Drunk drives are a problem in Texas road and they should be dealt with accordingly. Since a quick settlement may appear to the lay person as a good thing, in tern the insurance company have capitalized and improved their bottom line.

Insurance companies have been playing this game for too long, and they are very good at it. Every one must know that, insurance companies have a legal team of their own, but yet, they are willing and often wanting to settle with the victim of a tragedy, without allowing them their legal protection.

Accidents after rain

In Texas, specifically in the San Antonio area, the roads seem to be filled with more accidents after it rains. This phenomena has been a tragic reality for many families that have lost love ones due to some one's negligence. For some reason, drunk drivers and many more dareful drivers are more prone to drive during the rain posing greater risks to the public.

As it is, when you are driving a vehicle, all of your senses need to be alert and ready to react to any situation. When weather conditions change, especially during the rain, these senses need to be even more alert and ready to react. On top of that, for some reason Texas drivers are not the most careful ones in the nation. This means that, rain plus something else could be a fatality for you or the one you love.

The fact that we have too many "aggressive" drivers results in even greater chances for an accident to occur during difficult weather conditions. This has caused the “rubber necker’s” phenomena to increase resulting in even more accidents to occur in Texas in the last decade. We understand that many people cannot afford to stay inside when it rains, but we recommend that if you can, you do.
