Car Accidents in Dallas County, Texas: The Complete Guide to Your Rights and Recovery
If you’ve been injured in a car accident in Dallas County, Texas, you’re not alone. With over 250,000 people injured in Texas motor vehicle crashes every year – that’s one injury every 2 minutes and 5 seconds – our roads have become increasingly dangerous. In Dallas County alone, thousands of residents face the physical, emotional, and financial aftermath of collisions on our busy highways, intersections, and neighborhood streets.
At Attorney911, we understand the overwhelming challenges you’re facing right now. The pain from your injuries, the stress of mounting medical bills, the anxiety about missing work, and the confusion about dealing with insurance companies – it’s all too much to handle alone. That’s why we’re here to help. With Ralph Manginello’s 25+ years of experience fighting for accident victims across Texas and Lupe Peña’s insider knowledge from years working for insurance companies, we have the expertise to protect your rights and fight for the maximum compensation you deserve.
The Reality of Car Accidents in Dallas County
Car accidents are an unfortunate reality on Dallas County roads. With our growing population, congested highways like I-30, I-35E, and US-75, and the mix of local and through traffic, the risk of collisions remains high. In Texas, we see:
- 1 crash every 57 seconds
- 1 person injured every 2 minutes and 5 seconds
- 4,150 fatalities in 2024 alone
- 251,977 people injured last year
These aren’t just statistics – they represent real people whose lives were changed in an instant. Whether you were rear-ended on the North Dallas Tollway, t-boned at a busy intersection in Plano, or involved in a multi-vehicle pileup on I-635, the consequences can be devastating.
Common Causes of Car Accidents in Dallas County
Understanding what caused your accident is crucial to building a strong case. In Dallas County, we frequently see accidents caused by:
- Distracted driving (380 deaths in Texas in 2024) – including texting, eating, or using navigation systems while driving
- Speeding – particularly dangerous on our high-speed highways and in residential areas
- Failure to yield right of way – common at intersections and merge points
- Running red lights and stop signs – a major issue in urban areas
- Following too closely – especially problematic during rush hour traffic
- Driving under the influence (1,053 alcohol-related deaths in Texas)
- Fatigued driving – particularly among commercial drivers and shift workers
- Weather conditions – sudden rainstorms and occasional ice can create hazardous conditions
- Poor road conditions – potholes, construction zones, and inadequate signage contribute to accidents
Many of these accidents occur at dangerous intersections throughout Dallas County, including:
- I-35E and I-635 interchange (one of the most congested and accident-prone areas)
- US-75 and I-635 (high-speed merges create collision risks)
- I-30 and Buckner Boulevard (complex interchange with heavy truck traffic)
- North Dallas Tollway and LBJ Freeway (frequent lane changes and congestion)
- Intersections along US-175 (high-speed corridor with frequent crashes)
Common Injuries from Car Accidents
The injuries sustained in car accidents can range from minor to life-altering. At Attorney911, we’ve helped clients recover compensation for all types of injuries, including:
- Whiplash and soft tissue injuries – often dismissed by insurance companies but can cause chronic pain
- Herniated or bulging discs – may require surgery and long-term treatment
- Broken bones and fractures – including arms, legs, ribs, and facial bones
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBI) – can range from mild concussions to severe cognitive impairment
- Spinal cord injuries – potentially leading to partial or complete paralysis
- Internal organ damage – often requiring emergency surgery
- Lacerations and scarring – can result in permanent disfigurement
- Psychological injuries – including PTSD, anxiety, and depression
- Wrongful death – when accidents prove fatal
One of our clients suffered a leg injury in a car accident that initially seemed manageable. However, staff infections developed during treatment, leading to a partial amputation. This case settled in the millions, demonstrating our commitment to fighting for full compensation when injuries worsen over time.
Why Insurance Companies Are Already Working Against You
While you’re focused on recovery, insurance companies are building their defense against your claim. With Lupe Peña’s insider knowledge from years working for a national defense firm, we understand their tactics better than anyone:
- They’ll contact you immediately – often while you’re still in the hospital or on pain medication
- They’ll record your statement – looking for anything to minimize your injuries
- They’ll offer a quick settlement – before you know the full extent of your injuries
- They’ll delay and deny – hoping you’ll give up or accept less
- They’ll use surveillance – to catch you in “gotcha” moments
- They’ll blame you – using Texas’ 51% comparative fault rule to reduce their payment
Lupe knows these tactics because he used them for years. Now, he uses that knowledge to fight for you. As he explains: “I’ve reviewed hundreds of surveillance videos and social media posts as a defense attorney. Here’s the truth: Insurance companies take innocent activity out of context. They freeze ONE frame of you moving ‘normally’ and ignore the 10 minutes of you struggling before and after. They’re not documenting your life – they’re building ammunition against you.”
Why Choose Attorney911 for Your Dallas County Car Accident Case
When you’re injured in a car accident, you need more than just a lawyer – you need a team with the experience, resources, and insider knowledge to fight for maximum compensation. Here’s what sets Attorney911 apart:
1. Insurance Defense Insider Advantage
Lupe Peña worked for years at a national defense firm, learning firsthand how large insurance companies value claims. He knows their tactics because he used them – now he uses that knowledge to fight for victims like you. This insider advantage is something no other Dallas County law firm can offer.
2. Proven Multi-Million Dollar Results
Our firm has recovered millions for car accident victims across Texas. In one recent case, our client’s leg was injured in a car accident. Staff infections during treatment led to a partial amputation. This case settled in the millions. We don’t settle for lowball offers – we fight for what our clients truly deserve.
3. Federal Court Experience
Ralph Manginello is admitted to practice in the U.S. District Court, Southern District of Texas. This federal court experience is crucial for complex cases, especially those involving commercial vehicles or catastrophic injuries.
4. Personal Attention from Day One
At Attorney911, you’re not just a case number. As client Chad Harris shared: “You are NOT a pest to them and you are NOT just some client…You are FAMILY to them.” We provide the personal attention that large, high-volume firms simply can’t match.

We work on a contingency fee basis – you pay nothing unless we win your case. This means no upfront costs, no hourly fees, and no financial risk to you.
What to Do After a Car Accident in Dallas County
The actions you take in the hours and days following your accident can significantly impact your ability to recover compensation. Here’s what you should do:
Immediately After the Accident
- Call 911 – Report the accident and request medical assistance if needed
- Seek medical attention – Even if you feel fine, many injuries don’t show symptoms immediately
- Document everything – Take photos of vehicle damage, injuries, and the accident scene
- Exchange information – Get the other driver’s name, phone number, insurance information, and license plate
- Get witness information – Names and contact information for anyone who saw the accident
- Call Attorney911 – 1-888-ATTY-911 for immediate legal guidance
In the Days Following the Accident
- Follow up with medical treatment – Continue seeing your doctors and following their recommendations
- Document your injuries – Keep a journal of your pain levels, symptoms, and how the injuries affect your daily life
- Preserve evidence – Save all medical records, bills, and receipts related to the accident
- Don’t give recorded statements – Insurance companies will use your words against you
- Don’t accept settlement offers – Early offers are always lowball offers
- Avoid social media – Insurance companies monitor your accounts for anything to use against you
Why You Should Call Attorney911 Immediately
Evidence disappears quickly after an accident:
- Surveillance footage from nearby businesses is typically deleted within 7-30 days
- Witness memories fade quickly
- Vehicle damage is repaired, destroying evidence
- Insurance companies start building their defense against you immediately
As client Chavodrian Miles shared: “Leonor got me into the doctor the same day…it only took 6 months amazing.” We move quickly to preserve evidence and build your case while the details are fresh.
Understanding Texas Car Accident Laws
Texas has specific laws that affect your ability to recover compensation after a car accident:
1. Statute of Limitations
In Texas, you have 2 years from the date of your accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. This deadline is absolute – miss it and you lose your right to compensation forever. For wrongful death claims, the 2-year clock starts from the date of death.
2. Comparative Negligence (51% Rule)
Texas uses a modified comparative negligence system. This means:
- If you’re 50% or less at fault, you can recover damages (reduced by your percentage of fault)
- If you’re 51% or more at fault, you recover nothing
Insurance companies will try to assign as much fault as possible to you to reduce their payment. With Lupe’s insider knowledge, we know how to counter these arguments and protect your right to compensation.
3. Minimum Insurance Requirements
Texas requires drivers to carry minimum insurance coverage of $30,000 per person, $60,000 per accident for bodily injury, and $25,000 for property damage. However, many drivers carry higher limits, and commercial vehicles have much higher coverage requirements.
4. Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist Coverage
If the at-fault driver doesn’t have insurance or doesn’t have enough coverage, your own UM/UIM policy can provide compensation. Texas allows stacking of UM/UIM coverage from multiple policies.
Types of Compensation Available
After a car accident, you may be entitled to various types of compensation:
Economic Damages (No Cap in Texas)
- Medical expenses (past and future) – including hospital bills, doctor visits, physical therapy, medications, and medical equipment
- Lost wages – income lost due to time off work
- Lost earning capacity – if your injuries prevent you from returning to your previous job or reduce your future earning potential
- Property damage – repair or replacement of your vehicle and other damaged property
- Out-of-pocket expenses – transportation to medical appointments, home modifications, and other accident-related costs
Non-Economic Damages (No Cap in Texas)
- Pain and suffering – physical pain and discomfort from your injuries
- Mental anguish – emotional distress, anxiety, and depression
- Physical impairment – loss of physical function or ability
- Disfigurement – scarring and other permanent visible injuries
- Loss of consortium – impact on your relationship with your spouse
- Loss of enjoyment of life – inability to participate in activities you previously enjoyed
Punitive Damages (Capped in Texas)
In cases of gross negligence or intentional misconduct (such as drunk driving), you may be entitled to punitive damages. These are capped at the greater of $200,000 or 2x economic damages plus 1x non-economic damages (capped at $750,000 for the non-economic portion).

Common Questions About Car Accidents in Dallas County
What should I do immediately after a car accident in Dallas County?
If you’ve been in an accident in Dallas County:
- Call 911 and report the accident
- Seek medical attention even if you feel fine
- Document everything with photos and notes
- Exchange information with the other driver
- Get witness names and contact information
- Do NOT give a recorded statement to any insurance company
- Call Attorney911 at 1-888-ATTY-911 for immediate legal guidance
Should I call the police even for a minor accident?
Yes, always call the police. The police report is critical evidence for your claim. In Texas, you must report accidents with injuries, deaths, or property damage over $1,000.
Should I seek medical attention if I don’t feel hurt?
Absolutely. Many serious injuries don’t show symptoms immediately:
- Traumatic brain injuries can take days to manifest
- Internal bleeding may not be obvious
- Herniated discs may not cause pain for weeks
- Adrenaline masks pain at the scene
Insurance companies use delays in treatment against you. Get checked immediately.
What information should I collect at the scene?
- Other driver: name, phone, address, driver’s license, insurance information
- Vehicle: make, model, color, license plate
- Witnesses: names and phone numbers
- Photos: all vehicle damage, injuries, road conditions, traffic signals
- Police: officer name, badge number, report number
Should I talk to the other driver or admit fault?
- Exchange information only
- Do NOT discuss fault
- Do NOT apologize or say “I’m sorry” (can be used as admission)
- Do NOT give your opinion on what happened
- Stick to facts only
How do I obtain a copy of the accident report?
In Dallas County, you can obtain the police report from the responding agency or through the Texas Department of Transportation’s Crash Records Information System (CRIS).
Should I give a recorded statement to insurance?
To the other driver’s insurance: NO. Not without an attorney.
To your own insurance: You have a duty to cooperate, but call Attorney911 first. We can advise you on what to say.
What if the other driver’s insurance contacts me?
Say: “I need to speak with my attorney first.” Give only basic information (name, date of accident). Do NOT give a recorded statement. Do NOT discuss injuries or fault.
Do I have to accept the insurance company’s estimate?
No. Their estimate is just an offer. It’s usually far below actual value. Attorney911 fights for what your case is really worth.
Should I accept a quick settlement offer?
NEVER accept a settlement before knowing the full extent of your injuries. Once you sign a release, you cannot get more money even if you need surgery later.
What if the other driver is uninsured or underinsured?
Your own UM/UIM coverage can compensate you. Watch our video “Uninsured & Underinsured Motorists” at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kWcNFyb-Yq8 to learn more.
Why does insurance want me to sign a medical authorization?
They want unlimited access to your ENTIRE medical history to find pre-existing conditions to use against you. Never sign without attorney review.
Do I have a personal injury case?
You may have a case if:
- Someone else was at fault (even partially)
- You suffered injuries or damages
- There is insurance to recover from
Watch our video “Do I Have a Good Case?” at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j-PMMP5Jims
When should I hire a car accident lawyer?
Immediately. Evidence disappears daily. Insurance companies start building their defense against you from day one. Call Attorney911 at 1-888-ATTY-911.
How much time do I have to file (statute of limitations)?
In Texas: 2 years from the date of the accident for personal injury, 2 years from the date of death for wrongful death. Miss it = case barred forever.
What is comparative negligence and how does it affect me?
Texas uses the 51% bar rule. If you’re 50% or less at fault, you can recover (reduced by your fault %). If 51%+ at fault, you get nothing.
Watch our video “What Is Comparative Negligence?” at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=agzHKY_v9l4
What happens if I was partially at fault?
You can still recover if you were 50% or less at fault. Your recovery is reduced by your percentage of fault.
Will my case go to trial?
Most cases settle before trial. But Attorney911 prepares every case AS IF it’s going to trial. That’s what gives us leverage.
Watch our video “Will Your Case Go to Trial?” at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Ed5AnmCMcc
How long will my case take to settle?
Depends on injury severity. We don’t settle until you’ve reached maximum medical improvement (MMI). Could be 6 months for minor injuries, 18-24 months for serious injuries.
What is the legal process step-by-step?
- Investigation and evidence gathering
- Medical treatment to MMI
- Demand letter to insurance
- Negotiation
- Lawsuit if necessary
- Discovery
- Mediation
- Trial if needed
Watch our video “What Is the Process for a Personal Injury Claim?” at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XwzYymneDVs
What is my case worth?
Depends on: injury severity, medical costs, lost wages, permanent impairment, pain and suffering, insurance available. Cases range from $15,000 (soft tissue) to millions (catastrophic injury).
What types of damages can I recover?
- Medical expenses (past and future)
- Lost wages and earning capacity
- Pain and suffering
- Mental anguish
- Physical impairment
- Disfigurement
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Property damage
Can I get compensation for pain and suffering?
Yes. Pain and suffering is a significant component of personal injury cases in Texas. There is NO CAP on pain and suffering (except medical malpractice).
What if I have a pre-existing condition?
You can still recover if the accident aggravated or worsened your pre-existing condition. This is called the “eggshell plaintiff” rule.
Will I have to pay taxes on my settlement?
Generally, compensation for physical injuries is NOT taxable. Punitive damages ARE taxable. Consult a tax professional.
How is the value of my claim determined?
Based on: medical bills, future treatment costs, lost income, permanent impairment rating, comparable verdicts, severity of injuries, impact on daily life.
How much do car accident lawyers cost?
Attorney911 works on contingency: 33.33% before trial, 40% if trial. You pay nothing upfront. We don’t get paid unless we win.
Watch our video “How Do Contingency Fees Work?” at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=upcI_j6F7Nc
What does “no fee unless we win” mean?
You pay zero unless we recover money for you. If we don’t win, you owe us nothing. We advance all case costs.
How often will I get updates?
Attorney911 provides regular updates. As client Dame Haskett said: “Consistent communication and not one time did I call and not get a clear answer.”
Who will actually handle my case?
At Attorney911, you work directly with Ralph Manginello and Lupe Peña, not just paralegals. As Chad Harris said: “You are NOT just some client…You are FAMILY to them.”
What if I already hired another attorney?
You can switch. As client Greg Garcia said: “In the beginning I had another attorney but he dropped my case although Mangiello law firm were able to help me out.”
What if I was hit by a government vehicle (city bus, police car, etc.)?
Government claims have special rules. You must file notice within 6 months (much shorter than 2-year statute of limitations). Sovereign immunity protects government entities. Damage caps may apply. These cases are complex – you need experienced attorneys.
What if the other driver fled the scene (hit and run)?
File a police report immediately (hit and run is a criminal offense). Your Uninsured Motorist (UM) coverage applies. Surveillance footage is CRITICAL – most is deleted 7-30 days. We send preservation letters immediately.
What if I’m an undocumented immigrant – can I still file a claim?
YES. Immigration status does NOT affect your right to compensation for injuries. You’re entitled to full recovery regardless of immigration status. Your case is confidential. We’ve successfully represented clients of all immigration statuses. Lupe is fluent in Spanish.
What if the accident happened in a parking lot?
Parking lot accidents are fully compensable. Insurance companies love to argue “parking lot accidents are always 50/50 fault” (LIE). We prove fault through: surveillance video, witness statements, damage analysis, traffic patterns.
What if I was a passenger in the at-fault vehicle?
You can sue the driver even if you were riding with them (friend, family member, Uber driver). You’re an innocent victim. Driver’s insurance covers passengers. No comparative fault issues (you weren’t driving). We handle the difficult conversation so you don’t have to.

- Witness memories fade quickly
- Vehicle damage is repaired, destroying evidence
- Insurance companies start building their defense against you
- Medical records become harder to obtain
- The 2-year statute of limitations is ticking away
