After a wreck in Texas

What to do in the first few days

The steps you take right after a crash can shape your entire claim. Keep this list handy.

Watch the clock.Texas generally gives you two years from the date of injury to file a personal injury lawsuit (Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code §16.003). Claims against a city, county or the state can require written notice much sooner.
  1. Call 911 and get checked outReport the crash and accept medical attention. Whiplash and concussions often show up hours or days later.
  2. Document the scenePhotograph every vehicle, the road, traffic signals, your injuries and the other driver's plate and insurance card.
  3. Get the crash reportTexas officers file a Peace Officer's Crash Report (form CR3). You can buy a copy online through TxDOT's Crash Report Online Purchase System.
  4. See a doctor within a few daysGaps in treatment are one of the first things insurers use to reduce a claim. Follow your treatment plan.
  5. Be careful with the other driver's insurerYou do not have to give a recorded statement. Talk to an attorney before you sign anything or cash a check.
  6. Stay off social media about the crashPhotos and posts can be taken out of context and used against your claim.

Injury claims

What a claim can cover

Depending on your case, an injury claim in Texas may seek compensation for:

  • Medical bills, now and in the future
  • Lost wages and lost earning capacity
  • Pain, suffering and mental anguish
  • Physical impairment and disfigurement
  • Vehicle repair or replacement
Fault

If you were partly at fault

Texas follows a modified comparative fault rule. You can still recover as long as you are not more than 50 percent responsible, and your recovery is reduced by your share of fault (Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code Chapter 33).

Insurance

Talking to adjusters

The other driver's adjuster works for their insurer. Give only basic facts, decline a recorded statement, and do not sign a release or accept a quick settlement before speaking with an attorney. Early offers rarely account for future medical care.

Care after the crash

Need to see a doctor first?

We also help accident victims find medical care. Our care partner FreeForm Chiropractic has ten locations across Dallas Fort Worth and treats patients injured in auto accidents.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Do not see your question? Call or text 817.300.2973 any time.

Does it cost anything to use DFW Lawyer Help?

No. There is no charge to you for our referral. Most personal injury attorneys work on a contingency fee, which means they are paid a percentage of what they recover for you and nothing if they do not recover. Criminal defense fees vary by attorney and case, and the attorney will explain them before you hire them.

Are you a law firm?

No. DFW Lawyer Help is a referral service. We do not give legal advice and we do not represent anyone. We connect you with independent attorneys licensed in Texas who make their own decisions about your case.

How long do I have to file a claim in Texas?

For most personal injury cases, Texas allows two years from the date of injury to file a lawsuit. Claims against a government entity can require written notice within months. Evidence also fades quickly, so it helps to speak with an attorney as soon as you can.

What if I do not have health insurance?

You may still be able to get treatment. Many providers who treat accident victims will wait to be paid until your case resolves. Ask us about care options when you call.

Should I talk to the other driver's insurance company?

You can give basic information, but you are not required to give a recorded statement. It is wise to speak with an attorney before discussing your injuries or accepting any settlement.

Do you help with criminal cases too?

Yes. If you or a family member has been arrested or charged in the DFW area, we can connect you with a criminal defense attorney. Call or text any time, day or night.
