Car accidents happen everyday. Galveston is no stranger to car accidents especially during the summer when Galveston’s population doubles due to the large number of tourists who visit every year. Every time you drive up 1-45 to Houston, go cruising on Seawall Boulevard, or speed down Broadway to catch the Galveston-Bolivar Ferry, there is a chance you could be involved in car accident. Each time we hear those screeching tires, horns blaring, and the sound of the metal crashing together we hope everyone’s okay and only the vehicles are damaged. Unfortunately, that’s not always the case, and serious injuries can occur due to a car accident. If you or loved one has been involved in a car accident contact an experienced Galveston car accident attorney immediately.
