Texas sees more than 500,000 reported crashes per year, and Harris County leads the state in fatal and serious injury accidents. If you were injured in a Houston car accident, the at-fault driver's insurance company will move quickly to limit your claim — often making settlement offers before you fully understand the extent of your injuries. CDF Law levels the playing field.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common Questions About Your Case

How long do I have to file a car accident lawsuit in Texas? +
Two years from the date of the accident under Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code § 16.003. Contact CDF Law immediately to protect your rights.
What if I was partially at fault for the car accident? +
Texas uses modified comparative fault. You can still recover as long as your fault is less than 51%. Do not admit fault to any insurer without speaking to an attorney first.
Should I accept the insurance company's first settlement offer? +
Almost never. First offers are designed to close claims quickly and cheaply. Once you sign a release, you cannot come back for more — even if injuries worsen. CDF Law negotiates on your behalf.
What if the at-fault driver was uninsured? +
You may recover through your own Uninsured Motorist (UM) coverage. CDF Law handles the UM claim process and fights your own insurer when they act in bad faith.
How long does a car accident case take in Texas? +
Simple cases may settle in 3–6 months. Complex cases can take 1–3 years. CDF Law moves efficiently while never accepting an undervalued settlement.
Do I need a lawyer if I was only 'a little injured'? +
Yes. Soft tissue injuries can become serious long-term conditions. CDF Law offers a free consultation with no obligation.
What does a car accident lawyer cost? +
CDF Law works on contingency — zero upfront, zero while your case is pending. We only get paid when we win.
How is CDF Law different from other Houston car accident attorneys? +
When you call CDF Law, you speak with Cedrick — not a paralegal. You get direct attorney access throughout your entire case.
