Fort Worth Texting and Driving Accident Lawyers

Texas Transportation Code §545.4251 makes texting while driving a Class C misdemeanor statewide. When a driver who was texting causes a crash, the traffic violation is evidence of negligence per se in your civil case. We subpoena the at-fault driver's phone records and wireless carrier data to establish that they were actively using their device at the time of impact. In cases involving commercial drivers who violated FMCSA rules against handheld phone use (49 CFR §392.82), their employer may also face federal regulatory violation exposure.

Damages You Can Recover

  • Past and future medical expenses
  • Lost wages and loss of earning capacity
  • Pain and suffering
  • Mental anguish and emotional distress
  • Physical impairment and disfigurement
  • Property damage

Two-Year Statute of Limitations (§16.003): You have two years from the date of injury to file suit. Modified Comparative Fault (§33.001): You may recover as long as you are not more than 50% at fault. No fee unless we win.

How soon should I contact a Fort Worth attorney after my accident?
Immediately. Evidence — dashcam footage, surveillance video, witness availability — deteriorates quickly. Early legal involvement protects your rights and strengthens your case.
Should I give a recorded statement to the insurance company?
No. Insurance adjusters use recorded statements to find grounds to minimize or deny your claim. Contact our office before speaking with any insurance representative.
