A family of four in Beaumont, Texas, was seriously injured in a car accident caused by a negligent driver. Fortunately, the family can move forward after the knowledgeable auto accident attorneys at The Button Law Firm fought to secure a settlement that holds the driver accountable and compensates the family for their injuries and damages.

The immense impact caused the family’s car to roll over at least three times, and seriously injured all four family members.
The family contacted our team of experienced Texas car wreck attorneys to hold the negligent driver accountable for causing the accident. The settlement secured by our personal injury attorneys will help each of the family members heal by covering medical treatments, emotional damages, car expenses, and other financial burdens that they experienced because of this accident.
