Rear-End Collisions

Rear-ended in Houston? Leatherwood Law will help you get paid and move forward.

Houston rear-end collision attorney Hogan Leatherwood

Rear-end accidents happen in seconds—but the pain and disruption can last for months. Whether you were stopped at a red light, stuck in traffic on I-10, or slowing for a turn, the driver behind you is almost always at fault. Don’t let the insurance company tell you otherwise.

At Leatherwood Law, we help rear-end crash victims in Houston recover medical expenses, lost income, and pain and suffering. These cases might seem “minor” to insurers—but we know how serious soft tissue, spine, and head injuries can be.

You deserve more than a lowball check and a generic apology. Let us fight for the full compensation you’re owed.

Common Injuries From Rear-End Collisions

  • Whiplash and soft tissue damage
  • Neck, back, and spinal disc injuries
  • Concussions or traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
  • Shoulder, knee, or joint trauma from seatbelt impact
  • Facial injuries from airbag deployment
  • Aggravation of pre-existing conditions

What Compensation Can You Recover?

If you were rear-ended due to another driver’s negligence, you may be entitled to:

  • Medical bills and rehabilitation
  • Lost wages and reduced earning potential
  • Pain, suffering, and emotional distress
  • Vehicle repairs or total loss value
  • Ongoing treatment or therapy for chronic pain
  • Wrongful death compensation (if a loved one was killed)

Why Choose Leatherwood Law for a Rear-End Accident Claim?

  • We don’t let insurers downplay your injuries: We know rear-end crashes can lead to serious, lasting harm—even without broken bones.
  • We prove liability clearly: Texas law presumes the following driver is at fault. We help enforce that presumption with evidence.
  • No recovery, no fee: You don’t pay unless we win.
  • Local experience: We’ve helped crash victims across Houston and Harris County hold negligent drivers accountable.

What to Do After a Rear-End Collision

  1. Call the police and get a crash report – Even if the damage seems minor, this documentation is crucial.
  2. Seek medical care – Many injuries from rear-end collisions appear hours or days later.
  3. Take photos and gather evidence – Get shots of both vehicles, the scene, and the driver’s license/insurance.
  4. Contact Leatherwood Law – Before you give a statement or accept a settlement.
