CAR WRECKS & UBER ACCIDENTS ATTORNEY IN DALLAS, TEXAS

Texas Auto Accident Lawyer

When you are injured in a car wreck, the physical and emotional impact can be devastating. You may have life-altering injuries. You may lose time from work which could lead to financial ruin. You may be traumatized from the wreck.

We understand. And we are here to help you pick up the pieces and put your life back together.

We have a team of dedicated professionals who will investigate the cause of the accident and gather the evidence necessary to prove your case. Insurance companies understand the legal process that happens after an auto accident. They are very good at planting evidence (including eyewitness statements) in their favor.

While you focus on your recovery, we are working hard to help you put your financial affairs in order. We will exhaust all possible avenues of possible financial recovery. This will include an investigation to determine the insurance coverage of the driver who caused your wreck. Is it a commercial vehicle? Was the driver working when the accident happened? Is there an umbrella policy? Was the driver a minor with a bad driving record? Do you have uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage?

The insurance company will often engage in gamesmanship with people who are injured in a car wreck. For example, the insurance company will not want to share with you the policy limits of the driver who hit you. This is just one of many “cat and mouse” games that insurance companies play. Or the insurance company may resort to making up “facts” to support their version of how an accident happened. They may blame the victim or bring up things about you that are irrelevant to the cause of the crash.

You need to be able to show that you are serious about your case. The only way to do that is to hire a lawyer the insurance companies respect. At Hoch Law Firm, P.C. we are Board Certified in Personal Injury Trial Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization. This is a distinction shared by less than 1% of all lawyers in Texas.

Just like we have for hundreds of other car wreck victims over the years, we will aggressively pursue your case to get you the best recovery possible.

Navigating Uber, Lyft, and Rideshare Insurance: What Texas Law Means For You

One of the most confusing aspects of a rideshare accident is figuring out which insurance policy covers your injuries. Uber and Lyft use a tiered coverage system that depends on what the driver was doing at the moment of the crash:

• App Off: Only the driver’s personal auto policy applies
• App On, No Passenger Yet: Uber/Lyft provides limited liability coverage of $50,000 per person
• Passenger In Vehicle: Uber/Lyft’s $1 million commercial liability policy is active

Your ability to recover full compensation depends on precisely documenting the driver’s app status at the time of impact, and that is something insurers will not volunteer to help you prove. At Hoch Law Firm, we know how to obtain trip logs, driver records, and app timestamps to build the strongest possible claim.

Texas follows a modified comparative fault rule, meaning you can still recover damages even if you were partially at fault, as long as your share of fault is below 51%. Insurance adjusters will try to assign blame to you early in the process. Do not give a recorded statement without speaking to an attorney first.
