He bumps your car. You may both be held equally responsible. If this is the case, your damages will be cut in half. There is not much your Car Accident Lawyers can do to stop this.

Texting and Driving

Distracted driving causes thousands of accidents each year. Our Houston car accident attorneys handle these types of cases every week. Whether the other driver was talking or texting, his being on the phone certainly distracted him.

Car accident Lawyer used to have a hard time proving texting cases. It is not as hard now as it was 5-10 years ago. Before, you needed an eyewitness to testify that a driver was texting at the time of the accident. This is hard because rarely is an eyewitness paying attention to a random driver. It is even rarer that they are doing so at the exact moment an accident happens.
