What Happened
Jason, a pianist, was walking through a marked crosswalk in downtown Fort Worth when a large truck failed to yield and struck him. Although the driver slammed on the brakes, Jason was knocked to the ground, suffering a herniated disc, spinal injuries, and abrasions to his arms and body.
The at-fault driver’s insurance company tried to blame the crash on the sun, claiming it obstructed the driver’s view. However, Daws Legal successfully challenged that defense—demonstrating that if the driver had been paying proper attention, the crash would have been entirely avoidable.

The Last Thing He Needed Was a Battle With the Insurance Company
After the accident, Jason was in pain, forced to cancel performances, and unsure of what his recovery would look like. The last thing he needed was a fight with an insurance company looking for a way out. He’d heard the stories—about victims pressured into quick settlements that left them with nothing when medical bills piled up. Fortunately, Judson Daws stepped in early. He took over the communication from day one and shielded Jason from the tactics insurers use to minimize claims. That peace of mind was everything. Jason could focus on healing, knowing someone was fighting for him.
I Never Had to Deal with the Insurance Company—Judson Took Care of Everything.
I didn’t have to deal with the other driver’s insurance because Judson stepped in so early in the process.
Just Call Him. I Can Vouch for Him.
Jason didn’t expect to need a lawyer—but once he did, he was grateful he chose someone like Judson Daws. When asked what he’d say to others in the same position, Jason didn’t hesitate: schedule a consultation. Call Judson. He describes Judson as “really knowledgeable, really kind,” and someone who knows how to get results. For Jason, having a lawyer he could trust made all the difference. For anyone else trying to figure out what to do after an injury, his message is simple: you don’t have to do this alone.
