Before You Talk to an Adjuster. Download Our Free Book
Injured in a car accident? According to TXDOT each day, countless vehicles pass through Dallas, Fort Worth, and the surrounding areas. Inevitably, accidents happen, and should you be involved, you need to know what to do immediately after the car accident. You also need to know what could potentially happen to you in the aftermath of the accident. Insurance adjusters will call you, trying to get you to give a statement about how the accident happened, the extent of your involvement, and the seriousness of your injuries. They are NOT asking these questions to be helpful, but rather to pin you down in an effort to minimize your claim or even trick you into saying something that will allow them to deny your claim entirely.

Compensation For Those Injured In A Car Accident
Medical Expenses
You are entitled to recover all out-of-pocket medical expenses that you or your loved one incur, as well as the amounts paid by any type of medical insurance plan, including Medicare and Medicaid. You are also entitled to any future medical expenses that you are likely to incur in the future based on reasonable medical probability.
Lost Wages/Loss of Earning Capacity
If you miss work as a result of your injuries, the law provides that you may recover any lost wages. The law also provides that, in the event your injuries result in your inability to earn as much in the future as you did in the past, a claim for loss of future earning capacity can be made.
Impairment
If the injuries you sustained result in either temporary or permanent impairment or disability, then you are entitled to pursue a claim for that impairment.
Disfigurement
These are damages awarded due to scarring, amputation, or other physical injuries leaving a long-term and usually permanent change to physical being or look.
Physical Pain & Suffering
Pain associated with an injury can range from minor and rather temporary to severe and long-lasting. This type of recovery is very subjective and can vary widely from one person to the next. Nonetheless, the law allows recovery for the pain you suffer, and the amount compensated is determined by the jury on a purely subjective basis.
Mental Anguish
These types of damages are also very subjective and are often met with extreme skepticism by juries. Texas courts have determined that, in order to recover mental anguish damages, there must be evidence of the degree, nature, extent, duration, and severity of the person’s mental anguish. There must have been a relatively high degree of mental pain and distress which is more than mere disappointment, anger, resentment, or embarrassment, although it may include all of these.
We don’t get paid unless you do.
Getting A Police Report After A Car Accident
After you’ve been involved in a significant car accident, a police officer will typically arrive at the scene of the accident. Any drivers and witnesses will be interviewed, the vehicles and scene will be inspected, and an accident report will be written based on the officers’ investigation. A police report can include important information that will help your Texas car accident attorney support your case and hold the negligent driver accountable.
To obtain a police report, one must visit the Texas Department of Transportation website and submit a search and purchase request for the Texas Peace Officer’s Crash Report (CR-3). Due to confidentiality, crash reports are not available for online viewing by the general public.
The requester must know some or all of the following to complete the search:
Upon payment and following the proper release guidelines, the crash report will be available to view online. There is also an option to obtain a copy of the report by completing the proper form and mailing it in. While the police report is just one of many key factors in supporting your claim, it is still a very important piece of evidence.
