We do not like to call it an accident at our firm, but we refer to it as a collision. In a trial, we cannot mention the word insurance. Most defense attorneys love to refer to a collision as an accident to simply tell the jury that the defendant didn’t do anything wrong and it was just an accident. This approach will alter the jury’s view on rewarding damages. The jury will see a common individual, just like themselves, sitting at the defense table that was simply involved in an accident that defendant didn’t mean to cause. However, that is not the truth. Most incidents are caused by driver inattention, texting, fatigue, time restraints, and other distractions. Our firm has litigated the following cases. Most of the cases were settled before trial, and the cases tried before a jury were favorable to our client. Our firm co-counsel on litigation matters for other law firms in Texas has not lost a case in 12 years.
