Do I need a lawyer after a car accident in Texas?
Not always — but if you have injuries, missed work, or the insurance company is contacting you, you should at least get a free case review. Insurance companies have their own adjusters and lawyers. Talking to an attorney first costs nothing upfront.
How long do I have to file a car accident claim in Texas?
Texas has a 2-year statute of limitations for personal injury claims from the date of the accident. After that, you lose the right to sue. Evidence also disappears over time — the sooner you act, the stronger your case.
How much is my car accident case worth?
It depends on your injuries, lost wages, property damage, and the other driver's insurance. There is no typical number. Every case is different, and no outcome is guaranteed. A free review can help you understand your options.
What if the other driver was uninsured?
You may still be able to recover through your own uninsured motorist (UM) coverage, a personal injury lawsuit against the driver, or other avenues depending on the circumstances. A free case review will tell you exactly what options you have.
How does the referral process work?
CrashHelpTX is a free referral service. You submit your info or call us, we review your case, and if it's a good fit we connect you with a licensed Texas personal injury attorney. There's no cost to you — the attorney only gets paid a percentage of your settlement if you win.
What if the accident was partially my fault?
Texas follows a modified comparative fault rule. You can still recover damages as long as you were less than 51% at fault — your award is just reduced by your percentage of fault. Don't assume you have no case. Let a specialist review it first.
How long does a car accident case take to settle?
It varies a lot, from a few months to more than a year, depending on your injuries, treatment, fault and the insurance company. An attorney can give you a realistic picture for your situation.
