Getting into a car accident is stressful enough — but if you were behind the wheel without a valid driver’s license, that stress can quickly turn into full-blown anxiety. You may be wondering: Do I still have legal rights? Can I get help with my injuries? Who’s going to fight for me?
At Herrman and Herrman Personal Injury Lawyers, we understand that life isn’t always black and white. We’re here to help you navigate the gray areas — and get the justice you deserve.
First: Your Right to Compensation Doesn’t Disappear
It’s important to understand one key fact: driving without a license and getting injured in an accident are two separate legal issues.
If you were hurt in an accident that wasn’t your fault — even if you were driving without a valid license — the at-fault driver is still legally responsible for your injuries and any damage to your vehicle. Just because you didn’t have a license doesn’t mean you forfeit your rights. And with the right legal team behind you, you can still recover the compensation you’re entitled to.
At Herrman and Herrman, we’ve represented many clients in situations just like this. We know how to handle the complexities and fight back against insurance companies trying to use your license status against you.
Second: Not All License Issues Are the Same — and That Matters
There’s a big difference between never having a license at all and driving with a suspended or revoked one. Driving without a license might be a minor infraction — but driving with a suspended or revoked license could carry more serious consequences, including fines or jail time.
No matter your situation, you need a legal team that understands how to untangle the criminal and civil aspects of your case — and protect your rights every step of the way. That’s where Herrman and Herrman come in.
Third: Here’s What to Do If You’ve Been Injured
If you were hurt in a car accident and weren’t at fault, don’t wait. Take action to protect your health, your future, and your legal rights:
Get medical attention immediately — your health should always come first.
Apply for your driver’s license (if you don’t have one already). Taking steps to become compliant helps your case.

CONTACT HERRMAN & HERRMAN IF YOU HAVE BEEN INJURED IN ANY OF THE FOLLOWING TYPES OF ACCIDENTS:
We can help you if you have been harmed by the following:
- Car accidents – Our lawyers have extensive experience handling car accident cases. We will work to identify the party or parties at fault for the crash and build a case to demonstrate persuasively how the parties caused the accident and your injuries. We will seek fair and full compensation through a negotiated settlement or at trial if necessary.
- Truck accidents – Thousands of large commercial trucks travel the roads of Texas every single day. Unfortunately, careless truck drivers and trucking companies disregarding safety put innocent people at risk of serious injuries. If you’ve been injured in a truck accident, let our experienced Texas personal injury lawyers stand up to the trucking companies and insurers on your behalf.
- Motorcycle accidents – Motorcycle riders often suffer grievous injuries in crashes caused by other motorists. Too many motorcycle accidents in Corpus Christi are caused by careless drivers who don’t look for motorcycle riders or violate their right of way. Our personal injury lawyers will work to cut through the bias and stigma against motorcycle riders. Our goal is to seek the financial compensation that you’ll need to recover from a serious motorcycle accident and injuries such as bone fractures, road rash, or traumatic brain injury.
- Product liability – Product manufacturers have a legal obligation to make products that are safe for their intended uses and to warn consumers of any risks that may come with the product. When products have design or manufacturing defects or undisclosed dangers, the product manufacturer may be legally responsible for injuries suffered by consumers. Our attorneys can help you evaluate whether you have a valid product liability claim.
- Brain injury – Brain injuries can leave accident victims with disabilities that leave them unable to work or perform many tasks of daily living. Seeking compensation for a brain injury in an accident often proves incredibly complex. The brain injury survivor may seek compensation for anticipated future medical care and the medical care already provided. Our personal injury lawyers can help you through the difficult recovery process following a brain injury and will fight to make sure you have the resources you need.
- Spinal injury – Spinal cord injuries could cost millions of dollars of care over the course of the victim’s lifetime, especially when those injuries result in partial or complete paralysis, such as paraplegia or quadriplegia. If you or your loved one has suffered a spinal cord injury, you deserve compassionate legal representation. Our attorney can help you determine whether you may be entitled to claim compensation for your injury and expenses related to living with the disability, such as making a home more accessible.
- Wrongful death – If you have lost a loved one due to the negligent or reckless actions of another party, your family deserves to seek accountability and compensation from those at fault for the wrongful death. Our caring and dedicated attorneys can help guide you and your family through this difficult and painful time and seek justice for your loved one.
