Car Accident Lawyers Who Earn Rave Reviews
Texas Car Crash Facts
One can be forgiven for thinking car accidents simply don’t occur in Needville. There are only around 3,000 folks who live here, after all. However, the data shows that in 2020 there was a car accident more than once every two weeks in Needville.
The fact is, car accidents occur everywhere and in Texas, they occur often. There was not a single day in 2020 without at least one auto accident death in Texas.
Another misconception is the idea that major car accidents only happen on major highways or in big cities. Many are surprised to find out that the majority of auto accident fatalities in Texas take place in rural areas.Â
Tragic Car Crashes in Needville
Nobody can predict when someone will start their day like any other and end it as an accident victim. There have been numerous severe car accidents in Needville in the past few years alone. This is a sampling of serious crashes the Needville community has suffered:
November 2020
Just past 7 in the morning, a mother and her two teenagers were injured in a car accident with a pickup truck driver. Both the mother and the pickup driver were taken to the hospital by ambulance. The two teenagers, Needville Junior High and Needville High School students, were in critical condition and flown to the hospital by helicopter.
November 2021
A deadly multiple car crash occurred on FM 360. The accident was initiated when a driver ran a stop sign, leading to the severe multi-car collision involving a boxcar and two 18-wheelers. Multiple people were ejected from their vehicles and killed, and one of the 18-wheelers was burned completely through.
December 2021
Multiple fatal crashes tragically took place on Highway 21 west of Bryan in Brazos County. The first fatal accident victim was a local schoolteacher and youth sports coach who was killed by a negligent 18-wheeler driver. The second victim was a nurse and native of Needville who was also killed by a negligent truck driver.

TIME MAY BE RUNNING OUT
Statute of limitations laws create a deadline for when you have to file a lawsuit by. If you are seeking compensation for bodily or property damage you will file a personal injury lawsuit. The deadline in Texas is two years from the date of your accident. If you have tragically lost a loved one, you will want our lawyers to file a wrongful death lawsuit. The deadline for wrongful death is two years from the date your loved one passed away, not the date of the accident. In some situations, your deadline to file can be extended based on specific circumstances.
The best way to find out if you have a compelling case that can be filed is to contact attorneys like Mr. Terry and Mr. Reed, who have handled thousands of accident cases already. The sooner our lawyers get on your side the better. You need defense against aggressive insurance tactics, and professionals who can build your case while the evidence is still fresh. The law firm of Reed & Terry, LLP uses an extensive network of expert witnesses who can help us turn your evidence into winning legal arguments.
Common Types of Car Accidents
Preserve Evidence
When folks are injured in a car crash, insurance companies and other drivers will often make false or misleading claims in an attempt to minimize an accident victim's suffering and potential compensation. Having hard evidence helps our attorneys successfully fight for the financial justice you deserve. If you have evidence, it is very important to back it up on several devices. Computers and phones can break or get lost easily. A good way to ensure you have your evidence is to email copies to yourself.
Attend Appointments
It is normal to want to put your car crash behind you. However, it is very important that you seek medical attention and regularly attend doctor's appointments, even if you do not feel injured. It is quite common for folks who are hurt in car crashes to not feel their injuries immediately. By seeing your doctor you can protect your health, and ensure that medical bills and records are created. Our personal injury attorneys can use your medical bills as proof of your physical and financial suffering as we fight to earn you as much as possible.
Stand Your Ground
Our personal injury attorneys know that car accident cases can become hotly contested. Oftentimes, the other driver or other drivers who caused you harm will see themselves as the victim. This can lead to tempers flaring and furious allegations. Additionally, it can feel natural to want to say sorry when you have been in a crash, even when you did nothing wrong. Our lawyers stress that you do not admit fault in any way. An admission of guilt can and will be used against you.
More Important Information
Texas Personal Injury Law
While our car accident lawyers will handle the details, it is important for you to know how Texas law operates in auto cases. In our state, modified comparative negligence rules the road. This basically means that the key point to prove in an auto accident case is not that you were driving perfectly, but that another driver or party is more responsible for your injuries than you are. Therefore, even if you did make a mistake, we can win your Needville case as long as you were not the primary cause of the accident.
Interacting With Insurance
Insurance companies are not your friend. There's no other way to put it. Quite often, they work to deny or settle claims to protect themselves, not you. They may use creative and persuasive language to convince you to settle your case and put it all in the past. It is important that you do not provide them any details, and instead direct all your questions to your attorneys. We can fight their aggressive tactics and work to ensure you receive the financial settlement you deserve.
