Houston Drowsy Driver Accident Attorneys Who Fight for You

Our law firm goes above and beyond for injury victims and their families

Drivers who fall asleep at the wheel wreak havoc on our roads. In an instant, a drowsy driver can crash into your vehicle, causing a serious car accident with severe injuries. That’s why drowsy driver accidents are among the most serious types of car accidents we often handle at our Houston law firm.

Our Houston car accident lawyers at Smith & Hassler know how to handle these accidents. That’s because our attorneys have more than 30 years of legal experience in Texas. We’re familiar with the challenges often involved with these crashes. We know what questions to ask and how to build a strong and effective legal case. That’s our secret to success – we go above and beyond in pursuit of justice.

What makes drowsy driving car accidents so serious?

Drowsy driving accidents often result in very serious injuries, including fatalities in certain circumstances. The reasons why cover a wide range, including:

  • Drivers asleep at the wheel often don’t slow down before the collision. In fact, they may inadvertently accelerate before the crash.
  • Sleeping drivers often don’t swerve or make any attempt to avoid a collision.
  • Tired driving accidents often happen on highways at a high speed.
  • Drowsy driver accidents often occur at night when it’s harder to see other vehicles.

Add all these factors together and you often have a recipe for a serious car accident. People can be left with severe injuries that require extensive medical treatment. The costs of surgery, hospitalization, medication, physical therapy and follow-up appointments can add up quickly and soon become overwhelming.

That’s why it’s important that you have an experienced attorney on your side, demanding justice for you and your family after your crash.

Why are asleep at the wheel accidents often so complicated?

You might think your drowsy driving accident would be straightforward. Another driver fell asleep at the wheel and crashed into you. The reality is many asleep at the wheel car accidents in Texas turn out to be very complicated legal cases. Reasons why include:

  • The driver who caused your crash has no memory of the accident
  • The driver who caused your collision claims they did nothing wrong
  • The driver who caused your accident blames you for causing collision
  • The other driver’s insurance company denies your accident claim

Our firm takes your case seriously from the start. Our legal team investigates to get the facts. This involves gathering evidence, carefully reviewing accident reports and medical records, interviewing witnesses and if needed, consulting experts. We know how to prove a drowsy driver was responsible for what happened.

Our attorneys are very familiar with the tactics that insurance companies use to try to minimize compensation. They may question the seriousness of your injuries or argue that they were pre-existing. They’ll make a lowball settlement offer and hope you will just accept it and go away.

We think you should not have to settle for less than the financial compensation you deserve. That’s why we build strong cases and fight back against insurance company attempts to pay you less.

You have so many things to worry about after your asleep at the wheel accident. We can take care of the legal issues associated with your crash – from filling out forms to negotiating with insurance companies on your behalf. That way, you can focus on what really matters – your recovery.

Expect more after your drowsy driver accident. Contact our law firm today.

The stakes are often very high after a drowsy driver accident. The financial toll of your accident can easily add up to thousands or even millions of dollars. This can include your medical bills, lost income during your recovery and lost future income if you cannot return to work. With so much at stake, you cannot afford to take chances with your future.

But you can afford legal representation. Our firm works on a contingency fee basis. We pay all the costs to move your case forward. There are no upfront fees or other charges. We don’t get paid unless we recover financial compensation for you.
