“Reed & Terry represented me 6 years ago as a result of a car accident. Noticed a lien on my property from the hospital. Called and spoke with Marta. (She was actually paralegal who assisted me at the time). Was always kind and caring. She stopped what she was doing and immediately researched my case. Sent me the letter, copy of check that was paid to hospital. Someone at hospital didn’t do their job and remove lien. Marta, you are awesome!! I would recommend this firm to anyone needing an excellent personal injury attorney. Thanks again.”
Types of Auto Accidents
DIFFERENT KINDS OF VEHICLE COLLISIONS
Different kinds of crashes could occur on Sealy’s highways and surface roads. Here are some of the most common kinds of crashes that our car accident lawyers deal with regularly.
Head-On Crashes
Also known as a front-end collision, head-on accidents involve the fronts of two vehicles colliding. These kinds of accidents often lead to catastrophic or fatal injuries given the amount of force involved.
Rear-End Collisions
Rear-end collisions involve a car getting struck from behind. Note that being rear-ended at low speeds may seem like a minor car accident or fender-bender, but it can still cause whiplash and other injuries.
T-Bone Accidents
Also known as broadside crashes, T-bone collisions involve the front of one vehicle hitting the side of another. These accidents often happen at intersections and can leave drivers and passengers seriously injured.
Rollover Accidents
Rollover accidents occur when a vehicle flips over on its side or roof during a crash. These kinds of auto accidents are more common with top-heavy vehicles, such as SUVs or vans.
