Industry: Small Business

Press Release Summary: Know what rights are involved as the result of an injury
accident. In Texas, claims must be filed within two years.

Press Release Body: Vehicle crashes are at an all time high despite increased safety
features built into cars and trucks in the 21st century. There are literally
thousands of them each year, with Texas leading the pack and laying claim to a
depressing 1,544 traffic related deaths on a yearly basis. There are no signs this
trend will decline.
Also on the rise are auto industry costs, insurance and personal injury costs. It\'s
just about inevitable that virtually everyone will be involved in an accident during
the course of his or her life. Whether the cause of the accident is poor road
conditions, inattentive driving, reckless driving or being in the wrong place at the
wrong time, accidents have very real financial and personal consequences.
Serious injuries and death as a result of a vehicular crash may be cause for a legal
claim. Consult with a law firm with extensive experience in personal injury claims
to explore various options. Victims of traffic accidents are entitled to
compensation for their suffering and losses.
In 2005 there were an estimated 6,420,000 car crashes nationwide. The staggering
cost of these crashes totals somewhat over $230 billion dollars. These accidents
resulted in 2.9 million injury claims and 42,636 deaths. Shockingly nearly 115
people die each day in a car crash in the US and that means approximately one death
every 13 minutes.
More deaths are attributed to speeding, reckless driving and drunk driving. Legal
representation in situations like this is crucial particularly if facing brain,
head, spinal or neck injuries, fractures, or broken bones.
Know what rights are available if there\'s a serious injury accident, particularly if
the injuries could be permanent. There needs to be negligence on the part of the
other driver. Claims have to be filed within two years in Texas. State laws do vary,
so consult with an attorney about a potential claim.
