Our Fatal Car Accident Attorney Pursues Recovery for Families in Dallas
When your family experiences the loss of a loved one caused by a negligent driver, you have our sympathy and condolences. You also have our commitment to help your family hold the negligent driver financially accountable for your loss.
We help families recover the following:
- Your loved one’s accident-related medical bills

- Your family’s loss of their financial support
- The costs of making the decedent’s final arrangements
We can also seek recovery for their pain and suffering and for other losses, including consortium, companionship, and guidance. Our team will ensure your case is not undervalued and that all valid expenses are accounted for prior to entering the negotiation process.
Evidence Establishing the At-Fault Driver’s Negligence
To prove your right to recover damages, the evidence we collect will prove the at-fault driver’s negligence. Negligence is proven by showing the at-fault driver:
- Owed your loved one a duty of care
- Breached their responsibility to provide it
- Caused your loved one’s injuries and demise
- Caused the resulting financial consequences
We fight hard for your family’s right to recovery by ensuring the legal components of negligence are met. Our goal is to support your family throughout a legally and emotionally challenging time.
Wrongful Death Case Laws in Texas
The state of Texas has specific laws that govern wrongful death cases. The state classifies your loved one’s demise as wrongful if it is caused by:
- Neglect
- Carelessness
- Unskillfulness
- Default
In addition, according to Texas law, spouses, biological and adoptive children, and biological and adoptive parents can seek financial recovery for the loss of a loved one when it was caused by the negligence of another person or entity.
Another Texas law defines how much time your family has to file your lawsuit. In general, it must be filed within two years of the date of a loved one’s fatal collision. The age of the decedent and many other factors might change the statutory timeline.
Our fatal car accident team will ensure you understand relevant state and local laws that impact your case. We also make sure your case meets all required legal parameters and notification and filing deadlines.
