If that’s what happened to you or a loved one, you may be entitled to compensation.

Attorney Joe Guerrero and his team understand how difficult it is to recover after a crash that could have been prevented. We’re here to investigate what happened, prove liability, and help you move forward with the financial support you need.

What Is Distracted Driving?

Distracted driving occurs when a driver’s attention is diverted from the task of driving. It falls into three categories:
  • Visual: Taking your eyes off the road

  • Manual: Taking your hands off the wheel

  • Cognitive: Taking your mind off driving

Some of the most common forms of distraction include:

  • Texting or using a smartphone

  • Eating or drinking while driving

  • Adjusting the radio, GPS, or climate controls

  • Talking to passengers

  • Reaching for objects in the car

  • Personal grooming
Texting while driving is especially dangerous because it involves all three types of distraction. According to the Texas Department of Transportation, thousands of crashes each year are caused by distracted drivers—and many of them result in severe injuries.
