Do you have a loved one who has suffered a fatal car accident in Houston, Texas?
Grossman Law Offices offers relief.
A fatal car accident occurs on a daily basis. It can involve drunk drivers, 18 wheeler drivers, tractor trailer accidents, and defective products such as defective tires or vehicle rollovers. I recently represented a Houston family who lost their parents when the opposing driver’s tire exploded due to a defect in the tire. These types of accidents are especially frustrating because they seem so easily preventable.
Fatal car accidents in Houston and the wrongful death that occurs will usually require an accident reconstruction expert to help explain what happened. An accident reconstruction expert can take pictures and video, measurements, accident reenactments, maps and diagrams and other methods to help explain to a judge or jury how a particular accident occurred and who was at fault.

We work hard to get the results our Houston clients deserve.
A number of years ago I represented the family of a young man who was killed, we alleged, by another driver who had run a red light. The defendants contended that the young man ran the red light. The police report was unclear with regard to who ran the red light. There were many pieces of evidence our expert used to reconstruct who most likely ran the red light.
Evidence was obtained from the City of Houston which told us the type of light sequencing device that was used at that particular intersection. We also downloaded the modules in both vehicle that told us the rates of speed five seconds before impact as well as four, three, two, and one second before impact. The module told us about brake usage and cruise control.
Our expert went to the intersection at 2:30 in the morning when our accident took place to get an idea of the amount of traffic flow. The expert took detailed measurements and compared them to the measurements from the fatality report obtained from the Texas Department of Public Safety.
Depositions were taken of the defendant driver, the police officer who investigated the accident, all witnesses, and the defendant’s expert. The vehicles of both the plaintiff and the defendant were kept in storage for later inspection by the expert.
