Accidents here in San Antonio and the surrounding communities occur under a variety of scenarios and often result in bodily injury with a wide range of severity. What may seem like a minor auto accident can still result in serious injuries to drivers and passengers. Some common injuries include:

After an auto or truck accident you will be faced with what can often be a confusing process, especially if you have been hurt. You want to be careful not to accept a first offer of settlement or sign a release from the other insurance company as this could jeopardize compensation to which you’re entitled.

It’s in your best interest to contact an experienced lawyer to help you navigate the injury claim process.
