What to Do After a Car Accident in Texas

Taking the right steps after a Texas car crash can protect your health and your claim:

  • Seek medical care immediately
  • Call 911 and request police response
  • Take photos and videos of the scene
  • Collect witness contact information
  • Exchange insurance details
  • Notify your insurance company
  • Do not speak to the other driver’s insurer
  • Contact a Texas car accident lawyer ASAP

If you were hospitalized or unable to gather evidence, we can still investigate and protect your claim.

Evidence & Liability in Texas Car Accident Claims

We gather and preserve critical evidence, including:

  • Police reports
  • Witness statements
  • Surveillance and dashcam footage
  • Accident scene photos
  • Vehicle damage documentation
  • Medical records
  • Expert testimony

In Texas, the at-fault party may differ from the liable party, such as when an employee causes a crash while working. We identify all liable parties to maximize recovery.

Modified Comparative Negligence in TX

Texas follows a modified comparative negligence rule. You can recover compensation if you are less than 51% at fault, but your recovery is reduced by your percentage of fault.

Insurance companies often try to shift blame—our attorneys push back aggressively to protect your claim.

Car Accident Damages & Settlements

Most Texas car accident cases resolve through settlements, not trials. Our attorneys negotiate aggressively for compensation covering:

  • Medical expenses
  • Lost income & earning capacity
  • Pain and suffering
  • Mental anguish
  • Physical impairment or disability
  • Disfigurement
  • Property damage

If insurers refuse to negotiate fairly, we are fully prepared to take your case to trial.

Texas Statute of Limitations for Car Accidents

Under Texas law, you generally have two years from the date of a car accident to file a personal injury or wrongful death lawsuit. Waiting too long can permanently bar your claim.

When Should I Hire a Texas Car Accident Lawyer?

You should contact an attorney if:

  • You were injured in a car accident
  • Your injuries required medical treatment
  • A loved one was killed in a crash
  • The insurance company disputes fault or damages

We know how to handle insurers, protect your claim, and fight for maximum compensation.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Texas Auto Accidents

When should I hire a lawyer after a car accident?

You should hire a lawyer if you’ve been injured or if there’s significant property damage. An attorney will help protect your rights and handle negotiations with the insurance companies.

What if I’m partially at fault for the accident?

Under Texas’ comparative negligence rule, you can still recover damages if you’re 50% or less at fault, but your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault.

How long do I have to file a car accident claim?

In Texas, you have two years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit.

What if the other driver doesn’t have insurance?

You may be able to file a claim through your own uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage.

How much will hiring a lawyer cost me?

Most car accident attorneys, including us, work on a contingency fee basis. This means you pay nothing upfront, and we only get paid if we win your case.

How long will it take to settle my car accident case in Texas?

The timeline varies depending on the complexity of the case, the severity of injuries, and whether the case goes to trial. Some cases settle in months, while others may take longer.

What should I tell the insurance company after a Texas car accident?

Only provide basic information to the insurance company (e.g., date, time, location of the accident). Avoid discussing fault or accepting settlements before speaking with a lawyer.

How much is a car accident settlement worth in Texas?

The average car accident settlement in Texas ranges widely depending on injury severity, liability, and insurance policy limits. Minor injuries may settle for $10,000–$25,000, while serious injuries involving surgery or long-term disability can exceed $100,000. Texas follows modified comparative negligence, meaning your award is reduced by your percentage of fault.
