I just returned to Dallas from Fort Worth, time to get writing again with some personal injury related news: It has already been over a year since Texas City resident Juan Antonio Robles got hit by a drunk driver in League City, Texas, but he has only begun his lawsuit against Robert Gordon Harvey. Harvey is a Bacliff native that had been allegedly drinking at Fishbonz Bar and Grill near League City before he got into a wreck with Robles. As a result, Fishbonz Investments has also been named as a defendant in Robles’ suit. Robles claims he is lucky to be alive, but suffers from several injuries due to the collision. The court documents do not delve into the nature of his injuries. This case clearly shows the long journey a victim of a car wreck often faces after the accident. It has been a very long time since the impact, but Robles’ life still very much revolves around it. I know that in cases that I have heard about, victims often file charges as soon as two months after the collision. However, I am sure Robles and his lawyers have been busy preparing the best possible case.
All in all, I am certainly glad that Robles was able to survive his tragic personal injury. There is nothing scarier or more traumatic than having someone crash into you and not being able to avoid or stop it. If you or someone you love meets tragedy on a Texas road, do not hesitate to contact a Dallas personal injury attorney. Lawyers like the offices of Regis Mullen and Shane Mullen can help anyone hurt by the negligent driving of another motorist. Experienced legal counsel is an invaluable resource after a violent accident like this one, often determining whether or not you receive a suitable settlement proportional to the hardships ahead. Sometimes you just need a helpful Dallas personal injury lawyer or car accident attorney to assist you in siyuations such as this.
It was March 12, 2010 when Robles was stopped in an eastbound turning lane in the 800 block of FM 646 near 12th street when Harvey’s 1999 Toyota Tacoma unexpectedly entered his lane “unexpectedly and without notice.” As a result, the Toyota was in a head-on collision with Robles’ 2009 Nissan. Robles blames his poor driving decisions and Fishbonz’s poor business decisions for the accident and his subsequent injuries; he seeks at least $500,000. I hope anyone in his position also protects themselves with at knowledgeable lawyer.
