What Happens After a Car Accident? The Basics of a Car Accident Claim in Texas

Be sure to speak with an attorney as soon after your car wreck as possible.
Be sure to speak with an attorney as soon after your car wreck as possible.
Texas law requires every driver to carry liability insurance. In the event of a car accident, drivers must notify their insurance companies as soon as possible (as well as law enforcement if the crash resulted in property damage or injuries).
If you report injuries or other losses resulting from the crash, insurance agents will investigate the incident to determine who was at fault.
According to Texas's modified comparative fault law, you can recover compensation if it is determined you were less than 50% responsible for the accident. Insurance will review your claim and offer a settlement as reimbursement.
While the process outlined above is supposed to treat all parties fairly and provide financial security to drivers, it is not always that simple. Many things can go wrong after a car wreck, leaving you to shoulder medical bills and expenses you do not deserve.

For your protection and peace of mind, it is best to go through this process with a car accident lawyer on your side.

The Rocky Walton team is so caring. They had sent a bouquet of flowers that were waiting for me after my surgery, & I received cards throughout the years this process has taken. They were able to answer any & all questions, they kept me up to date on every single thing that was being done, and I am so grateful to have this team represent me during this emotional process. I went to Rocky Walton almost immediately after my wreck/injuries & that was the best decision I made...

Reasons You Need an Attorney

Our law firm passionately represents clients in the greater Mansfield region and beyond, including Tarrant County, Ellis County, and Johnson County.

There Is a Question As to Who Is at Fault for the Car Wreck

Determining who or what is "at fault" for an auto accident is a very important part of your claim. The percentage of responsibility assigned to a driver ends up being deducted from the amount they are owed in compensation. If there is any question or uncertainty about fault, you should contact a car accident lawyer right away. We can help prove the true cause of an accident and show you are entitled to maximum compensation.

Your Losses From the Car Wreck Exceed the Other Driver’s Insurance Coverage

Texas law requires motor vehicle drivers to carry what is known as 30/60/25 liability insurance. This covers injury or death of one person up to $30,000, injury or death of multiple people up to $60,000, and property damage up to $25,000. But what happens if your losses exceed the amount of liability insurance covered by the other driver? Our attorneys can help you pursue a personal injury lawsuit to recover the full extent of your damages. 

An Insurance Company Is Acting in Poor Faith

While insurance companies are supposed to offer fair settlement amounts to accident victims, there is always a chance you can be taken advantage of. Our personal injury lawyers are trained to handle these negotiation processes and will make sure you walk away with the amount you deserve. If we are unable to reach a fair settlement, we will even take your case to trial. 

The Legal Process Is Complex and Time-Consuming

Do not underestimate the complexity of a car accident claim, even if your case seems simple. Our personal injury attorneys have attended years of specialized education and spent countless hours working on cases in order to effectively navigate the legal proceedings. While it is not impossible to file a claim on your own, a single mistake can hurt your chances at rightful compensation. With the help of our attorneys, your case will be less stressful and more likely to reach a satisfactory resolution.

Statue of Limitations In Texas

In Texas, you have two years from the date of a car accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. If someone you loved has passed away as the result of an accident, the two-year period typically begins from the date of death.

While this may seem like enough time to take action, two years can pass by very quickly, especially for those dealing with tragedy. It is always better to speak to a car accident attorney sooner rather than later to explore your options. 

"I Cannot Say Enough Good Things..."

"My granddaughter and I were in a horrible car accident. These people are just the best. They got us the maximum amount they could get. It was such a pleasure to work with them. Everyone in the office is very professional and they take the time to make sure you know what is happening and they are available to answer questions when you have them." Teresa Valentine
