We are very proud to help support them in their efforts.”

Austin Law Firm Files Lawsuit against Drunk Driver

The Barry Law Group has filed suit against an Austin driver, who hit another vehicle while allegedly driving under the influence of alcohol.

Attorneys for the firm filed the lawsuit, case number D-1-GN-12-002997 in Travis County District Court, on behalf of two clients who sustained “serious and permanent bodily injuries after the defendant crashed into their vehicle,” according to court documents.

According to the lawsuit petition, the defendant was allegedly trying to evade the Austin Police Department and/or was fleeing the scene of another accident. The defendant was arrested after the wreck for driving while intoxicated.

The petition states that the defendant allegedly failed to exercise the degree of care and caution which would have been exercised by a person in a similar circumstance by operating a vehicle under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs, failing to maintain proper control of the vehicle he was operating and operating the vehicle in an unsafe and improper manner.

“Actions like the defendant’s should not be tolerated in Travis County,” said Carl Barry, principal attorney at the Barry Law Group. “(S)omeone needs to fight for the rights of responsible, innocent people whose lives are destroyed by intoxicated drivers.”

Austin Law Firm Recovers $360,000 in Pre-Suit Car Accident Case

The Loewy Law Firm recovered $360,000 for a client, who hit a parked car that was negligently left on the highway. The case was settled pre-suit and resulted in a $215,000 net recovery for the client.

The client was hospitalized for serious injuries sustained during the accident. However, law enforcement officers cited the client for failing to control her speed while driving. The client spoke with insurance companies, who told her that “she was responsible for the crash and refused to pay any money for any injuries or other damages she sustained during the accident,” according to the firm.

The Loewy Law Firm (http://www.personalinjurylawyersaustintx.com) argued that the client was not at fault for the crash and help her recover financial compensation, successfully negotiating a $360,000 settlement before the case went to trial. The pre-suit settlement resulted in a $215,000 net recovery for the woman.

Attorney Adam Loewy said “Potential clients need to realize that the insurance companies will always try to avoid paying money. That is why you must hire a qualified lawyer to fight for you.”
