Motor Vehicle Accidents – Car, Motorcycle, or Truck

Motor vehicle accidents happen every day in Houston and the surrounding areas. Whether you’re driving on local roads or major highways, you’re at risk of being injured by a negligent driver. At West & West, LLP, we routinely represent victims of serious car, motorcycle, and truck accidents. While most of our cases settle, we’re fully prepared to take your case to trial if necessary.

Car Accidents

We represent victims of all types of car accidents, including those caused by:

• Distracted driving

• Drowsy or drunk driving

• Hit-and-run drivers

• Running red lights or stop signs

• Improper merging or lane changes

• Other forms of driver negligence

Motorcycle Accidents

Motorcycle accidents often result in serious injuries. We fight aggressively for injured riders and work to ensure they receive full compensation — so they can focus on healing and get back on the road with confidence.

Truck Accidents

We have the experience needed to handle complex claims involving 18-wheelers, garbage trucks, and other commercial vehicles. These cases often involve federal regulations, multiple parties, and high-stakes insurance issues — we know how to navigate them all.

Pedestrian & Bicycle Accidents

Houston isn’t the most pedestrian- or bike-friendly city. Unfortunately, drivers often fail to see or yield to cyclists, joggers, and pedestrians — resulting in catastrophic injuries. We represent injured walkers, runners, and cyclists in claims against negligent drivers and work tirelessly to help our clients recover.

Medical Negligence & Medication Errors

Medical errors are more common than most people think. We represent clients injured by:

• Medication errors

• Surgical mistakes

• Misdiagnoses or delayed diagnoses

• Other forms of medical negligence

We pursue claims against hospitals, clinics, pharmacies, and individual providers — and can refer you to trusted physicians to get the care you need.

Nursing Home Negligence

If you suspect that a loved one is suffering from nursing home abuse or neglect, you must act quickly. Signs to watch for include:

• Dehydration or malnutrition

• Improper or missing medications

• Unexplained injuries or infections

• Financial exploitation

We represent families in cases of physical, emotional, and financial abuse and will work to ensure your loved one’s rights are protected.

Sexual Assault & Abuse

Sexual assault is a serious crime — but criminal charges don’t compensate victims for the harm they’ve endured. If you or a loved one has been sexually assaulted or abused, we will pursue all civil remedies available under Texas law to hold the offender accountable and help you obtain financial compensation.

Construction Accidents

If you’re injured while working construction, workers’ comp may not be your only option. We investigate all potential third-party claims — against contractors, subcontractors, manufacturers, and others — to make sure you recover the full compensation you deserve.

Wrongful Death

If you’ve lost a loved one due to someone else’s negligence — in a car crash, due to a medical mistake, or because of nursing home abuse — we are here to help your family pursue justice. Wrongful death claims are emotionally complex, and we provide both compassionate guidance and aggressive representation.

Premises Liability (Slip & Fall Accidents)

If you slipped, tripped, or fell on someone else’s property, you may be entitled to compensation. Property owners have a legal duty to maintain safe conditions — and if they fail, they can be held accountable. We handle cases involving:

• Slippery floors, sidewalks, or parking lots

• Uneven walkways or broken steps

• Unsafe railings, elevators, or escalators

• Dangerous construction zones

• Other hazardous conditions

Slip-and-fall accidents are often covered by the property owner’s insurance. If you’ve been seriously hurt, we can help you recover compensation for your medical bills, lost income, and pain and suffering.

Defective Product Liability

Dangerous and defective products cause thousands of injuries every year — from faulty electronics to unsafe toys and defective auto parts. Many victims never file a claim because they’re unaware of their rights or think it’s too difficult to take on a manufacturer. We can help.

Our team has extensive experience in product liability claims and will fight to make sure you receive the compensation you need to move forward. You may be entitled to financial recovery for:

• Medical expenses

• Pain and suffering

• Emotional trauma

• Lost income

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the statute of limitations for personal injury claims in Texas?
A: In most cases, you have two years from the date of injury to file a claim. But don’t wait — certain claims have shorter deadlines. Speak with an attorney as soon as possible.

Q: What mistakes should I avoid in a personal injury claim?
A: Avoid these common missteps:

• Talking to insurance adjusters or posting on social media

• Ignoring your doctor’s treatment plan

• Accepting a settlement too soon

• Returning to work before you’re medically cleared

Q: Can I talk to my own insurance company after a car accident?
A: Yes — but keep the conversation brief. Don’t give a recorded statement or discuss settlement terms without legal advice. Let us deal with the insurance company for you.

Q: Will my case settle, or will we go to court?
A: Most personal injury claims settle out of court. If a fair settlement isn’t offered, we’re ready to take your case to trial — and insurance companies know it.

Q: How much is my case worth?
A: That depends on your injuries, medical costs, lost income, and more. We’ll evaluate every aspect of your case to pursue full and fair compensation.

Q: How long does a personal injury case take?
A: Many cases resolve in 12–18 months, but more complex cases can take longer. We’ll keep you updated every step of the way.

Q: What if I don’t feel injured right after an accident?
A: See a doctor anyway. Some injuries don’t show symptoms right away, and early treatment can prevent complications and strengthen your case.

Q: Should I avoid social media while my case is pending?
A: Yes. Insurance companies will look for anything they can use to question your injuries, including innocent photos or posts. Stay offline until your case is resolved.
