Legal Question in Personal Injury in Texas

I am a minor (17) and I recently got into a car accident where I was hit on the drivers side because the other person ran their red light while I had a solid green. We have a witness we just got the police report, which says he has insurance but we don't know if it's valid yet.. Medical bills are over the top and I am in need of a car ASAP but we are not sure what to do next. We will be hiring an attorney soon because we need the help however we are confused as what to do next and what's the quickest thing I can do to obtain a car ASAP?

Call a few attorneys and ask if they'll handle getting your property damage processed. I don't know of any rental agencies that will allow a 17 year old to rent an auto. However, most property damage portions of cases can resolve quickly.

Based on what you have written, it appears that you should consult with a local law firm to assist you in protecting your rights and interests. There are a few items which would need clarification prior to providing any opinions. First, who owned the vehicle you were driving? Second, who owned the vehicle driven by the other party? Third, who is the other party's insurance company and your insurance company? Fourth, what damages were incurred to your vehicle? Fifth, what injuries did you sustain from the accident? Sixth, are you still in school or have you graduated? These and other questions will need answers as soon as possible so as to allow us the ability to assist you. Additionally, you would need to contact the law firm at 281-944-4034 to arrange for an initial consultation - make sure that you advise the receptionist what your case is about.
