Patrick Carew and Monica Bohuslav offer bilingual, contingency-fee representation so cost never blocks your path to justice. Texas law requires every driver to stop and render aid; fleeing the scene is a crime that can rise to a felony. Irving recorded 2,556 total crashes in 2020 and 2,080 intersection crashes in 2023, many along TX-183, I-635, TX-114, Belt Line Road, and Loop 12. Those numbers show why local knowledge and relentless advocacy matter.
Immediate action preserves health and evidence. Call 911 first, move to safety, and accept medical care even for “minor” aches. Document the scene with photos, noting street signs, Story Road, MacArthur Boulevard, or Airport Freeway, plus damage, skid marks, and weather. Identify witnesses and record their contact details. Provide a detailed statement when police arrive; the report anchors future claims.
Notify your insurer quickly and ask about uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage. Keep repair estimates, medical records, and a daily pain journal. Finally, call an Irving hit-and-run accident lawyer at Carew Garcia Bohuslav Law for a free consultation; early counsel stops insurance tactics before they start.
Texas civil law allows full recovery of accident-related losses. Economic damages reimburse hospital bills, physical therapy, prescription costs, and lost earnings, past and future. Non-economic damages recognize the human side of injury: pain, emotional distress, and the frustration of missing family milestones. When conduct is egregious, such as a drunk driver who flees, courts may award punitive damages to deter similar behavior.
Families who lose a loved one can pursue wrongful-death damages for funeral expenses, financial support, and loss of companionship.
Hit-and-run cases are procedurally and factually complex. Insurers exploit uncertainty by minimizing injuries or blaming victims; a seasoned advocate counters those tactics and builds leverage. Patrick Carew uses accident-reconstruction experts to trace paint transfers and video footage, while Monica Bohuslav negotiates UM/UIM claims when the at-fault driver remains unidentified. Local experience with Dallas County courts streamlines filings and discovery. Our firm advances all costs, prepares every case as if for trial, and charges no fee unless we win. A free, no-obligation review lets you learn your options before evidence fades.
Every example underscores that fleeing drivers create evidentiary gaps that skilled attorneys can still bridge through technology, witness outreach, and policy analysis.
Thorough investigation begins with scene visits, drone photography, and vehicle inspections. We subpoena nearby business cameras, cell-tower data, and traffic-control footage while memories remain fresh. Our team files UM/UIM claims under Transportation Code §1952 and challenges any lowball offer with documented medical projections. When negotiation stalls, Irving hit-and-run lawyer Patrick Carew drafts a complaint rooted in Texas Transportation Code §§550.021-.023 and Penal Code §550.022.
We know each Dallas County judge’s pre-trial preferences, shortening courtroom delays. Throughout the process we provide clear updates, answer calls within one business day, and coordinate lien reductions so more of the recovery reaches your pocket.
Yes. Texas Transportation Code §550.021 makes it a felony to flee when someone is injured; even property-only crashes require stopping and sharing information.
You may file a claim under your own uninsured motorist coverage. Nearly all Texas policies include UM/UIM unless expressly rejected in writing.
The Texas statute of limitations for personal injury is two years from the date of the crash, but acting sooner preserves evidence and witness recall.
Absolutely. Pedestrians and cyclists receive the same legal protections and may access UM coverage through household auto policies.
No. We work on contingency, advance all litigation costs, and collect our fee only after you receive compensation.
Politely decline a recorded statement and direct all communications to our office; unscripted comments can be used against you.
If you or a loved one suffered injuries in an Irving hit-and-run, call (469) 224-1617 or complete our quick contact form now. The consultation is free, the advice is personal, and you pay nothing unless we secure the compensation you deserve.
