Our mission? To fight for your rights and secure the compensation you deserve. At Joe Lopez Law, we know driving in Austin can feel like a roll of the dice. The latest stats from the Austin Police Department and the City’s Vision Zero program paint a tough picture for 2024: by December 30, we’d seen 96 deadly crashes and 103 lives lost, compared to 90 fatal crashes and 94 deaths in 2023. Highways like I-35—famous around here for speeding and bumper-to-bumper traffic—are often the culprits, making it clear why so many locals need an Austin car accident lawyer like us when things take a turn.
