Houston Distracted Driving Lawyer for Victims of Negligent Drivers

The Dangers of Distracted Driving

Distracted driving is one of the leading causes of serious crashes in Houston. Texting, eating, or using navigation apps while driving can all lead to devastating collisions. At the Law Office of Frederick K. Wilson II, we represent victims of distracted driving accidents, fighting for the compensation needed to recover from injuries, medical bills, and lost income.

Common Types of Distracted Driving

We handle cases involving:
Car icon in front of smartphone screen.

How Insurance Companies Respond

Even with clear evidence of distracted driving, insurers may argue that victims were partially at fault. Frederick knows what insurance companies look for in these cases because of his years of experience training adjusters. That knowledge helps him build stronger claims and push back against unfair tactics.

Distracted Driving in Houston

With heavy traffic on I-10, I-45, and Beltway 8, distracted driving is a daily hazard across Houston. From downtown to suburbs like Katy, Sugar Land, and The Woodlands, Frederick represents victims injured by negligent drivers who chose distraction over safety.
