Common Causes of Accidents in Bastrop County
Motor vehicle crashes often occur because someone failed to follow basic rules of the road. Some of the most common causes of injury accidents in the Bastrop area include:
Speeding and reckless driving
Failure to yield or obey traffic signals
Distracted driving (texting, using GPS, eating)
Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs
Fatigued driving or falling asleep at the wheel
Unsafe lane changes and tailgating
Poor road conditions or construction zones
No matter the cause, if someone else’s negligence caused your injuries, you may be entitled to compensation. Our job is to help you pursue the maximum financial recovery possible.

What Compensation Can You Recover?
After a motor vehicle accident, many victims face mounting medical bills, lost wages, and insurance company pressure. We work to ensure you’re fairly compensated for all the ways the accident has affected your life, including:
Medical expenses (hospital bills, surgery, physical therapy)
Future medical needs and rehabilitation
Lost income and loss of earning capacity
Pain and suffering
Emotional distress
Property damage (vehicle repairs or replacement)
Loss of quality of life or enjoyment of daily activities

If the at-fault driver was especially reckless — such as driving under the influence or engaging in road rage — we may also seek punitive damages on your behalf.
