Call an Experienced Houston, TX Accident Attorney Who Gets Results
Speeding is a major factor in dangerous car accidents. When a driver is speeding, the likelihood of causing severe injuries or fatalities increases significantly. If you were hit by a speeding driver on I-610, I-10, U.S. 59, or Westheimer Road, you need a skilled car accident lawyer who is dedicated to fighting for the financial compensation you deserve.
Attorney Kevin Adley of The Adley Law Firm represents victims of speeding-related accidents in Houston and throughout Texas. He understands the profound impact an injury can have on both victims and their families, and he knows the hurdles they face with insurance companies. When insurers attempt to dispute claims, Kevin Adley fights back.
Why Are Speeding Accidents So Dangerous?
The higher the speed, the greater the force of impact in a collision. This increased force can lead to more severe vehicle damage and more serious injuries to those involved. Additionally, drivers have less time to react to avoid a crash when speed is a factor. Speeding drivers may also engage in other hazardous behaviors, such as aggressive lane changes.
Injuries from speeding accidents can range from:
- Broken bones
- Spinal cord injuries
- Herniated discs
- Fractured vertebrae
- Concussions and traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
- Neck and shoulder injuries
- Damage to internal organs
Medical expenses can escalate quickly, including costs for X-rays, MRIs, CT scans, diagnostic tests, surgery, hospital stays, medication, physical therapy, home care, and follow-up visits. The inability to work can lead to financial stress and complications.
After a Car Accident, Your Situation Can Become Complicated
Speeding drivers may deny their actions or attempt to blame you for the accident. This places the burden on you to prove their speeding caused the crash.
Insurance companies add another layer of complexity. Their primary goal is to minimize payouts, not to ensure you receive fair compensation. They employ various tactics, such as:
- Questioning the seriousness of your injuries
- Accessing your medical history to argue that your injuries were pre-existing
- Attempting to blame you for the accident, which could reduce your compensation under Texas’s comparative negligence system
- Offering a settlement that fails to cover all your damages
Attorney Kevin Adley is well-versed in these tactics and doesn’t tolerate them. He builds strong, fact-based cases to secure the best results for you.
