Insurance and Liability Challenges

Even when drunk driving is clear, insurers often try to limit payouts or blame victims for part of the crash. Frederick knows what insurance companies look for when handling these claims, because of his years of experience training adjusters. That insider knowledge allows him to anticipate their strategies and fight for stronger results.

From late-night crashes on I-45 to accidents near entertainment districts like Midtown or Washington Avenue, drunk driving remains a serious problem in Houston. Frederick represents clients across the metro area, including Sugar Land, Katy, The Woodlands, and Pearland, who have been impacted by drunk drivers.
