Texting while driving is extremely dangerous, and as of September 1, 2017, it is also illegal. People who choose to send text messages or make phone calls rather than pay attention to the road in front of them present a serious hazard to everyone else on the road, and if they cause a car accident in which they injure or kill someone, they can face liability. If you or a loved one has been seriously injured in an accident that was caused by a negligent driver in Austin Texas, you have the right to seek full compensation for your injuries.

Research has shown that sending text messages while driving increases the likelihood of an accident by at least eight times, which is a far greater probability than the risk of an accident caused by a drunk driver. People who send text messages while driving take their eyes off the road for several seconds at a time. When they are not paying attention to the road ahead, crashes frequently happen at full speed, which creates the potential for severe injuries.
You won't pay any fees unless we obtain compensation for you.
