Attorney Colby Lewis secured a protected settlement for a mother and her four children injured by an unlicensed driver in Houston.Summary
Houston trial attorney Colby Lewis of The Law Offices of Colby Lewis successfully obtained a legal resolution for a Houston family after a collision with an unlicensed driver on Bissonnet Street. The incident involved a mother and her four children who sustained injuries when another driver failed to yield the right of way, causing a collision. Due to the involvement of minor children, the settlement required formal court approval and the appointment of a Guardian Ad Litem to ensure the children’s best interests were protected.
The approved settlement funds were placed into protected, interest-bearing accounts managed by the Harris County District Clerk, remaining secured until each child reaches the age of 18. This process, as explained by Lewis, ensures the preservation of funds for the injured minors’ future needs. Texas law mandates such safeguards for settlements involving children, often requiring structured arrangements or secured accounts.
Lewis emphasized the special responsibility of representing families with injured children, stating, “Kids can’t fight for themselves in the legal system, that’s why we take these cases seriously and work to ensure their futures are protected.” The Law Offices of Colby Lewis specializes in personal injury, insurance disputes, and civil litigation, advocating for individuals and families facing complex legal challenges.
