Experienced Help From a Houston Car Accident Lawyer

If you were hurt in a car crash anywhere in Texas, The Arnsworth Law Firm is ready to help you move forward. Work directly with a Houston car accident lawyer who has represented thousands of injured Texans over 25 years. We investigate collisions across Houston neighborhoods like The Heights, Montrose, the Galleria area, Katy, The Woodlands, Sugar Land, and along the 610 Loop, Beltway 8, I-10, I-45, and US-59. We also handle SUV, rideshare, and motorcycle cases, plus multi-vehicle pileups and hit-and-run claims.


When a wreck involves a commercial rig, our truck accident lawyer holds carriers and insurers accountable for driver fatigue, unsafe loads, or poor maintenance. Pedestrians struck in crosswalks or parking lots can rely on us for auto-pedestrian accidents across Houston and statewide.

From Investigation to Recovery

Texas follows a fault system for auto collisions. We gather police reports, scene photos, dashcam or surveillance video, electronic data, and witness statements, then present the strongest claim to the insurer. If needed, we file suit and take the case to court. Deadlines matter. The general statute of limitations for injury claims in Texas is two years from the date of the crash, so it is important to act promptly. If questions arise about shared fault, Texas comparative negligence rules may reduce recovery by your percentage of responsibility. We handle the details so you can focus on healing.

Answers to Common Car Accident Questions

  • What should I do immediately after a car accident in Houston?

    Call 911, get medical care, gather photos and witness names, and exchange information. Report the crash to your insurer and contact an attorney for guidance before you speak with the other driver’s insurance company.

  • How much does it cost to hire a car accident lawyer?

    We work on a contingency fee. There is no upfront cost. Our fee is paid from the recovery, so you pay nothing unless we win.

  • How long do I have to file a car accident lawsuit in Texas?

    The general deadline is two years from the date of the accident. Evidence fades quickly, so getting legal help early is important.

  • Can I recover compensation if I was partly at fault?

    Yes, you may recover as long as you are less than 51 percent at fault. Your compensation is reduced by your share of fault. We work to reduce any unfair blame placed on you.
