Understanding Personal Injury Protection (PIP)
What to Do After a Car Accident in Houston
If you’re involved in a car accident, here are essential steps to protect your rights:
Call 911 – Get police and emergency medical help on the scene.
Document the scene – Take photos/videos of vehicles, injuries, and road conditions.
Exchange information – Collect contact and insurance details from all parties involved.
Seek medical care – Even if you feel fine, get evaluated. Some injuries develop later.
Contact Salinas Defense – The sooner you involve us, the better we can preserve evidence and start building your case.
Compensation You May Be Entitled To
After a serious car accident, you may be entitled to compensation for:
Medical expenses (current and future)
Lost income and loss of earning capacity
Dolor y sufrimiento
Angustia emocional
Property damage
Permanent disability or disfigurement
Our team is committed to maximizing your recovery and helping you rebuild your life.
Time is Limited — Texas Statute of Limitations
Texas law gives you two years from the date of your accident to file a personal injury claim. If you miss this deadline, you may lose your right to compensation entirely. Don’t delay — speak with our legal team today so we can begin protecting your rights.
Can Passengers File a Claim?
Yes. Injured passengers can often file a claim against the at-fault driver’s insurance — even if that driver was operating the vehicle you were riding in. Every case is unique, and we can help you determine the best course of action based on the details of your situation.
Will My Case Go to Trial?
Most car accident claims are resolved through negotiation or settlement — but we prepare every case for trial. At Salinas Defense, we build strong cases from day one and are never afraid to go to court if that’s what it takes to secure fair compensation for you.
