Navigating Texas car accident claims can feel like walking through a maze blindfolded. But with the right guidance, the path becomes much clearer. Here’s what you can expect:
Your health always comes first. If you haven’t already, seek medical attention immediately, even if you feel fine. Adrenaline can mask serious injuries, and having medical documentation from the start strengthens your claim.
Michael emphasizes this point with every client: “Your wellbeing is more important than any insurance claim. Everything else can wait.”
If you’re physically able, gather as much information as possible:
Don’t worry if you couldn’t gather everything—Michael has resources to help fill in the gaps later.
Texas law requires you to report accidents involving injury, death, or property damage over $1,000. You typically have 10 days to file a report with the Texas Department of Transportation.
Contact your insurance company promptly, but remember—you’re only required to provide basic facts. Avoid admitting fault or speculating about what happened. This is where having Michael Piri in your corner becomes invaluable.
Texas follows a “fault” system for car accidents, meaning the at-fault driver’s insurance typically pays for damages. However, Texas also has comparative negligence rules, which can reduce your compensation if you’re found partially at fault.
Michael explains these complex laws in plain English, ensuring you understand how they might affect your case.
Your claim may include:
Michael works with medical professionals, economists, and other experts to ensure every aspect of your suffering is properly valued.
Here’s where many people get overwhelmed. Insurance adjusters are trained to minimize payouts, and they often use tactics that can catch you off guard. They might call when you’re still recovering, pressure you to accept quick settlements, or question the severity of your injuries.
Michael handles all communication with insurance companies, protecting you from these tactics while fighting for fair compensation.
Most cases settle out of court, but sometimes filing a lawsuit is necessary to get fair compensation. In Texas, you generally have two years from the accident date to file a personal injury lawsuit.
Michael prepares every case as if it will go to trial, which often leads to better settlement offers.
