A parking lot accident can upend your day in moments. What starts as a simple trip to a store or office may end with a fender bender, property damage, or even personal injury—leaving you to deal with the confusion and stress that follows.
Parking lot accidents in Texas present unique legal challenges. Determining who is at fault isn’t always clear-cut—it’s a shared space, often with limited signage or unclear right-of-way. Collisions may occur at low speeds, but even minor impacts can cause unexpected injuries and significant repair costs. Disputes commonly arise about which driver was backing out, yielding, or paying attention. Eyewitnesses may be hard to find, and security footage isn’t always available.
Insurance companies frequently take advantage of these uncertainties. They may deny claims, downplay injuries due to the low-speed nature of the crash, or argue that both drivers share blame—impacting your ability to recover damages. Navigating these disputes requires careful gathering of evidence, expert knowledge of liability in shared use spaces, and tenacity to stand up to insurance tactics.
That’s why Michael Piri dedicates his practice to helping Texans involved in parking lot accidents. He understands the complexities of these cases and the strategies insurers use to avoid fair settlements. With his experience, you’ll have a strong advocate who knows how to analyze accident scenes, challenge unfair blame, and secure the compensation you deserve.
