If You Were Just in a Crash

You don’t have to figure this out alone. Here’s a step-by-step guide to protecting your claim while your car accident attorney in Texas handles the heavy lifting.

  • Safety & 911. Get to a safe spot and call 911. Let medics check you over. Even minor pain can signal injuries that show up later.
  • Document what you can. If you can, take a few photos (vehicles, road, lights, weather) and exchange info. Write down any witness names and the officer’s report number.
  • Mind your words. Be polite, but avoid recorded statements or guesses about fault. We’ll notify insurers and protect deadlines for you.
  • Track everything. Save medical bills, repair estimates, and time missed from work. Start keeping a daily note about your pain and limitations to help support your claim.
  • Call us early. Our McKinney and Sherman teams can request the crash report and secure video evidence. We’ll even coordinate care. There is no fee unless we win.

How Your Case Works

  1. Intake: Free case review. If retained, we open your claim and send preservation letters.
  2. Investigation: Police report, scene/video, ECM “black box,” witnesses, coverage analysis.
  3. Medical Care & Damages: We’ll coordinate care and document bills, wages, and future needs.
  4. Negotiation: Trial-ready demand. You approve any settlement.
  5. Litigation: If a fair resolution isn’t reached, we file suit. From there, we will advocate through discovery, depositions, mediation, and, if needed, trial.

Frequently Asked Questions About Texas Car Accidents

How long do I have to file in Texas?

Generally, you have 2 years from the crash date to file. Some exceptions apply. Act quickly to prevent evidence from fading and ensure deadlines are met.

What if I’m partly at fault?

Texas uses proportionate responsibility. You can recover if you’re 50% or less at fault. Over 50% fault may bar recovery. Your compensation may be reduced based on your percentage of fault.

Should I give a recorded statement?

Not before legal advice. Statements can be used against you later. We handle insurer communications so you don’t have to.

What damages can I claim?

You can claim medical bills, lost wages, future earnings, pain and suffering, and more.

How much does a lawyer cost?

There are no upfront fees when you work with us. We work on contingency. That means you won’t pay fees unless we win.

Do you help with vehicle repair or total loss?

Yes. We help clients navigate property damage, repairs, total loss, and diminished value claims when available.
