Do I pay a fee if there is no recovery?

In appropriate cases these matters are handled on a contingent fee: the attorney fee is a percentage of any recovery, and no attorney fee is charged if there is no recovery. Case expenses are separate and are addressed in a written fee agreement.

What if the other driver had no insurance?

Your own uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage may apply. Identifying every policy is the first thing we do.

How long do I have to file?

Often about two years in Texas and Oklahoma, but the real date depends on the facts. Call if a crash is approaching a year old.

What we review after a crash

What should I do after a car accident?

Get medical care and keep every record; photograph the vehicles, scene, and injuries; identify every policy (at-fault driver, your own liability, PIP/med-pay, and UM/UIM); and do not give a recorded statement or sign a release before a review. In Texas and Oklahoma the at-fault driver's insurer is the starting point, comparative negligence can reduce recovery, and most claims run on a two-year clock.

Coverage we map on every file

At-fault driver's liability limits
Your own liability, PIP, or med-pay
Uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage on household policies
