Car Accident Lawyers in Corral City, Texas – Attorney911 Fights for You

If you’ve been injured in a car accident in Corral City, Texas, you’re not alone. With one crash occurring every 57 seconds in Texas and over 251,000 people injured annually, our roads have become increasingly dangerous. At Attorney911, we understand the physical, emotional, and financial toll a collision can take on you and your family. That’s why Ralph Manginello, our founding attorney with over 25 years of experience, leads our team in fighting for maximum compensation for accident victims across Denton County.

Corral City’s growing population and proximity to major highways like I-35 create a perfect storm for traffic accidents. Whether you were rear-ended on FM 428, involved in a T-bone collision at the intersection of US 380 and I-35, or struck by a distracted driver on your way to work, our Corral City car accident lawyers know how to build a strong case for you. We’ve recovered millions for clients with injuries ranging from whiplash to traumatic brain injuries, and we’re ready to fight for you too.

The Reality of Car Accidents in Corral City and Denton County

Texas saw 251,977 people injured in motor vehicle crashes in 2024 alone – that’s one person injured every 2 minutes and 5 seconds. In Denton County, the numbers are equally alarming. With Corral City’s population growing and traffic increasing on local roads, the risk of being involved in a serious collision has never been higher.

Common causes of car accidents in Corral City include:

Distracted driving (380 deaths in Texas in 2024)
Speeding on local roads and highways
Failure to yield at intersections
Running red lights at busy crossings
Following too closely on congested roads
Drunk driving incidents, especially on weekends

The aftermath of a car accident can be overwhelming. You may be facing mounting medical bills, lost wages from time off work, and the stress of dealing with insurance companies that prioritize their profits over your recovery. That’s where Attorney911 steps in. Our Corral City car accident attorneys handle all aspects of your claim so you can focus on healing.

Common Injuries from Car Accidents

Car accidents can cause a wide range of injuries, some of which may not be immediately apparent. At Attorney911, we’ve seen firsthand how these injuries can impact our clients’ lives:

Whiplash and Soft Tissue Injuries

These are among the most common car accident injuries, often resulting from rear-end collisions. Symptoms may include neck pain, stiffness, headaches, and shoulder discomfort. While some people recover within weeks, others develop chronic pain that lasts for months or years.

Herniated Discs

The force of a collision can cause the discs between your vertebrae to rupture or bulge, pressing on nerves and causing severe pain, numbness, or weakness in your arms or legs. Treatment may require physical therapy, epidural injections, or even surgery.

Broken Bones and Fractures

Common fractures in car accidents include broken ribs, arms, legs, wrists, and ankles. These injuries often require casting, surgery, and extensive rehabilitation.

Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI)

Even a “mild” concussion can have serious long-term consequences. TBIs can cause memory problems, difficulty concentrating, mood changes, and other cognitive issues that may affect your ability to work and enjoy life.

Spinal Cord Injuries

These catastrophic injuries can result in partial or complete paralysis. Victims often require lifelong medical care, home modifications, and assistive devices.

Internal Organ Damage

The force of a collision can cause internal bleeding, organ damage, or other life-threatening injuries that may not be immediately apparent.

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)

Many accident victims develop anxiety, depression, or PTSD, especially when driving or riding in vehicles becomes difficult.

“In a 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.” – Attorney911 Case Result

Why Liability Matters in Your Corral City Car Accident Case

Texas is an “at-fault” state, which means the driver who caused the accident is responsible for the damages. However, insurance companies often try to shift blame or minimize your injuries to reduce their payout. That’s why having an experienced Corral City car accident lawyer on your side is crucial.

Texas uses a modified comparative negligence system with a 51% bar rule. This means:

If you are found to be 50% or less at fault, you can recover damages (reduced by your percentage of fault)
If you are found to be 51% or more at fault, you cannot recover any damages

Insurance companies know this rule well and often try to assign maximum fault to accident victims. Our team at Attorney911, including former insurance defense attorney Lupe Peña, knows their tactics inside and out. We fight back against these unfair blame-shifting strategies to protect your rights.

Why Choose Attorney911 for Your Corral City Car Accident Case

When you’re injured in a car accident, you need more than just a lawyer – you need a legal emergency response team. Here’s what sets Attorney911 apart:

1. Insurance Defense Insider Knowledge

“Lupe Peña worked for a number of years at a national defense firm, learning firsthand how large insurance companies value claims.”

This insider knowledge is our secret weapon. While other law firms are guessing how insurance companies operate, we know their playbook because Lupe used it for years. He understands:

How they calculate claim values using Colossus software
Which “independent” medical examiners they favor (and how to counter their reports)
Their delay and deny tactics (and how to overcome them)
How they set reserve amounts (and how to increase them)

2. Multi-Million Dollar Results

At Attorney911, we don’t just talk about results – we prove them:

Multi-million dollar settlement for a client who suffered a brain injury with vision loss
Settled in the millions for a car accident victim who required amputation due to complications
Recovered millions for families in trucking-related wrongful death cases
Significant cash settlement for a maritime injury case

As client Chavodrian Miles shared: “Leonor got me into the doctor the same day…it only took 6 months amazing.”

3. Federal Court Experience

Ralph Manginello is admitted to practice in the U.S. District Court, Southern District of Texas. This federal court admission allows us to handle complex cases that other firms can’t, including:

Cases involving out-of-state defendants
Federal trucking regulations (FMCSA)
Multi-district litigation
Cases against large corporations

Our firm was also one of the few involved in BP explosion litigation, demonstrating our ability to take on billion-dollar corporations.

4. Personal Attention You Won’t Find at Large Firms

At Attorney911, you’re not just a case number. As client Chad Harris said: “You are NOT a pest to them and you are NOT just some client…You are FAMILY to them.”

You’ll work directly with Ralph Manginello or Lupe Peña, not a case manager or junior associate. We keep you informed every step of the way, as client Dame Haskett experienced: “Consistent communication and not one time did I call and not get a clear answer…Ralph reached out personally.”

5. No Fee Unless We Win

We understand that accident victims often face financial hardship. That’s why we work on a contingency fee basis:

Free consultation
No upfront costs
We advance all case expenses
You pay nothing unless we win your case

What to Do After a Car Accident in Corral City

The actions you take in the hours and days following a car accident can significantly impact your case. Here’s what you should do:

At the Scene:

Call 911 – Report the accident and request medical assistance if anyone is injured
Seek medical attention – Even if you feel fine, get checked out. Adrenaline can mask serious injuries
Document everything – Take photos of vehicle damage, injuries, road conditions, and traffic signals
Exchange information – Get the other driver’s name, phone number, address, insurance information, and license plate number
Get witness information – Names and contact information of any witnesses
Do NOT give a recorded statement – Politely decline and call Attorney911 first

In the Following Days:

Follow up with medical treatment – Continue all recommended care and follow your doctor’s instructions
Document your injuries and symptoms – Keep a journal of your pain levels and how the injuries affect your daily life
Preserve evidence – Keep all accident-related documents, receipts, and communications
Do NOT post on social media – Insurance companies monitor social media for evidence to use against you
Call Attorney911 – 1-888-ATTY-911 for immediate legal guidance

“I was rear-ended and the team got right to work…I also got a very nice settlement.” – MONGO SLADE

Evidence Disappears Daily – Act Now

Time is not on your side after a car accident. Critical evidence can disappear quickly:

Surveillance footage from nearby businesses is typically deleted within 7-30 days
Witness memories fade and become unreliable
Vehicle damage is repaired, destroying critical evidence
Black box data from vehicles can be overwritten
Insurance companies start building their case against you immediately

At Attorney911, we act fast to preserve evidence. Within 24 hours of being retained, we send preservation letters to all parties involved, legally requiring them to preserve critical evidence before it’s automatically deleted.

Types of Compensation You May Be Entitled To

If you’ve been injured in a car accident in Corral City, you may be entitled to compensation for:

Economic Damages:

Past and future medical expenses
Lost wages and lost earning capacity
Property damage (vehicle repair or replacement)
Out-of-pocket expenses (transportation, home modifications, etc.)

Non-Economic Damages:

Pain and suffering
Mental anguish
Physical impairment
Disfigurement (scarring, permanent injuries)
Loss of consortium (impact on your relationships)
Loss of enjoyment of life

Punitive Damages:

In cases of gross negligence or intentional misconduct (such as drunk driving), you may be entitled to punitive damages to punish the wrongdoer and deter similar conduct.

How Insurance Companies Try to Minimize Your Claim

Insurance companies have one goal: to pay you as little as possible. They use sophisticated tactics to minimize your claim, and without an experienced attorney, you’re at a significant disadvantage. Here’s how they work against you:

1. Quick Contact and Recorded Statement Trap

Within hours of your accident, an insurance adjuster will contact you, often while you’re still in the hospital or on pain medication. They’ll sound friendly and concerned, but their goal is to get you to say something that can be used against you.

Common questions they ask:

“You’re feeling better now, right?”
“It wasn’t that bad of an impact, was it?”
“Were you distracted at all?”

“Lupe’s insider knowledge from years at a national defense firm means we know exactly what they’re trying to get you to say. We’ll prepare you properly if a statement becomes necessary.”

2. Quick Settlement Offers

Insurance companies often make quick, lowball settlement offers within days or weeks of the accident. These offers may sound good when you’re facing mounting bills, but they’re designed to take advantage of your financial desperation.

The Trap: If you accept a quick settlement, you sign away your right to pursue additional compensation – even if you later discover you need surgery or have permanent injuries.

3. “Independent” Medical Exams (IMEs)

Insurance companies will often require you to see a doctor of their choosing for an “independent” medical exam. These doctors are hired and paid by the insurance company, and their goal is to minimize your injuries.

Common IME findings:

“Patient has pre-existing degenerative changes” (everyone over 40 has some arthritis)
“Injuries consistent with minor trauma”
“Patient can return to full duty work”
“Treatment has been excessive”
“Subjective complaints out of proportion to objective findings”

Lupe Peña knows these doctors well – he hired them when he worked for insurance companies. Now, he uses that knowledge to counter their biased reports.

4. Surveillance Tactics

Insurance companies hire private investigators to follow accident victims and video their daily activities. They’re looking for any activity that contradicts your injury claims, such as:

Walking without a limp
Carrying groceries
Participating in physical activities
Smiling or appearing happy

“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.” – Lupe Peña

5. Delay, Deny, Defend Strategy

Insurance companies often drag out claims, hoping you’ll get desperate and accept a lowball offer. They may:

Claim they’re “still investigating”
“Lose” your paperwork
Ignore your calls and emails
Take weeks to respond to simple questions

They know that financial pressure makes victims more likely to accept less than they deserve.

6. Comparative Fault Arguments

In Texas, if you’re found to be partially at fault for the accident, your compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault. Insurance companies know this and will try to assign you maximum fault to reduce their payout.

Common arguments:

“You were speeding” (without evidence)
“You weren’t paying attention”
“You could have avoided the accident”
“You were distracted”

Lupe’s experience as a defense attorney means we know exactly how they’ll try to shift blame and how to counter their arguments.

How Colossus Software Undervalues Your Claim

Most major insurance companies use a computerized claim valuation system called Colossus. This software determines how much your claim is “worth” based on algorithms. Here’s how it works – and how insurance companies manipulate it:

Data Entry – The adjuster inputs injury codes, treatment types, costs, and jurisdiction
Coding – Your injuries are coded using standardized medical terms
Calculation – The software applies algorithms to determine a settlement range
Output – The system provides a recommended settlement range

How Insurance Companies Manipulate Colossus:

Using the lowest possible injury codes (e.g., “soft tissue strain” instead of “disc herniation”)
Flagging “excessive” treatment to reduce value
Penalizing conservative treatment (chiropractic care valued less than MD treatment)
Applying pre-existing condition reductions

Lupe Peña knows how Colossus works because he used it when he worked for insurance companies. He knows:

How to present medical records to maximize Colossus valuation
Which medical terms trigger higher valuations
When Colossus output is artificially low
How to beat the algorithm with proper documentation

Other Motor Vehicle Accidents We Handle in Corral City

At Attorney911, we handle all types of motor vehicle accidents in Corral City and throughout Denton County:

Trucking Accidents

With I-35 running through Denton County, trucking accidents are a serious concern. In 2024, Texas saw 39,393 commercial motor vehicle crashes, resulting in 608 fatalities and 1,601 serious injuries. Texas accounts for 11% of all fatal truck crashes in the United States.

Trucking accidents often involve multiple liable parties, including:

The truck driver
The trucking company
The cargo loader
The vehicle manufacturer
The maintenance company

Our firm has recovered millions in trucking-related wrongful death cases, and Ralph Manginello’s federal court admission allows us to handle complex FMCSA cases.

Drunk Driving Accidents

Texas saw 1,053 alcohol-impaired driving deaths in 2024, accounting for 25.37% of all traffic fatalities. In Texas, bars and restaurants can be held liable for serving obviously intoxicated patrons who later cause accidents (Texas Alcoholic Beverage Code § 2.02).

Signs of obvious intoxication include:

Slurred speech
Bloodshot or glassy eyes
Unsteady gait or stumbling
Strong odor of alcohol
Aggressive or erratic behavior

Our firm’s involvement in criminal defense (Ralph is a member of the Harris County Criminal Lawyers Association) gives us unique insight into drunk driving cases.

Motorcycle Accidents

Texas saw 585 motorcyclist fatalities in 2024, with 37% of those killed not wearing helmets. Common causes of motorcycle accidents include:

Failure to yield right of way
Driver inattention or distraction
Unsafe lane changes
Left-turn accidents
Speeding

Insurance companies often try to blame motorcyclists for accidents, but our experienced Corral City motorcycle accident lawyers know how to counter these arguments.

Pedestrian Accidents

In 2024, Texas saw 6,095 pedestrian crashes, resulting in 768 fatalities. Pedestrians account for just 1% of crashes but 19% of all roadway deaths.

Important Legal Point: Pedestrians always have the right-of-way at intersections in Texas, even at unmarked crosswalks. Many drivers don’t know this, and insurance companies won’t tell you.

Rideshare Accidents (Uber/Lyft)

Rideshare accidents present unique insurance challenges. Coverage depends on the driver’s status at the time of the accident:

Driver Status	Coverage Available
App off (personal use)	Driver’s personal insurance ($30K/$60K/$25K minimum in Texas)
App on, waiting for ride	$50K/$100K/$25K contingent coverage
Ride accepted, en route to pickup	$1,000,000 commercial coverage
Passenger in vehicle	$1,000,000 commercial coverage

Lupe Peña’s insurance expertise helps us navigate this complex coverage maze to maximize your recovery.

Hit and Run Accidents

Hit and run accidents are a growing problem, with one occurring every 43 seconds in the U.S. If you’re the victim of a hit and run in Corral City, your own uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage can compensate you.

Penalties for hit and run in Texas are severe:

Death: 2nd degree felony (2-20 years prison)
Serious bodily injury: 3rd degree felony (2-10 years prison)
Minor injury: State jail felony (up to 5 years)
Property damage: Class B misdemeanor (up to 6 months jail)

Delivery Vehicle Accidents (Amazon, FedEx, UPS)

Delivery vehicle accidents are becoming more common as online shopping increases. These cases often involve:

Multiple liable parties (driver, delivery company, vehicle manufacturer)
Higher insurance limits
Complex liability issues

Our firm has experience handling delivery vehicle accident cases and understands the unique challenges they present.

Texas Car Accident Law: What You Need to Know

Understanding Texas car accident law is crucial for protecting your rights. Here are the key legal concepts you should know:

Statute of Limitations

In Texas, you have 2 years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. This deadline is absolute – if you miss it, your case will be barred forever.

Comparative Negligence (51% Rule)

Texas uses a modified comparative negligence system. This means:

If you’re found to be 50% or less at fault, you can recover damages (reduced by your percentage of fault)
If you’re found to be 51% or more at fault, you cannot recover any damages

Insurance companies know this rule and will try to assign you maximum fault to reduce their payout.

Minimum Auto Insurance Requirements

Texas requires all drivers to carry minimum liability insurance of:

$30,000 for bodily injury per person
$60,000 for bodily injury per accident
$25,000 for property damage per accident

However, these minimum limits are often insufficient to cover serious injuries. That’s why having an experienced Corral City car accident lawyer is so important.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist Coverage

Approximately 15.4% of U.S. motorists are uninsured. Texas allows you to stack UM/UIM coverage from multiple policies, which can significantly increase your available compensation.

How We Prove Liability in Your Car Accident Case

To win your case, we must prove that the other driver was negligent and that their negligence caused your injuries. We do this by gathering and presenting compelling evidence, including:

Physical Evidence

Photographs of vehicle damage
Skid marks and road conditions
Traffic signal timing data
Weather conditions at the time of the accident

Documentary Evidence

Police accident reports
911 call recordings
Traffic camera footage
Surveillance footage from nearby businesses
Medical records and bills
Employment records (for lost wage claims)
Cell phone records (to prove distraction)

Electronic Evidence

Event Data Recorder (EDR) or “black box” data from vehicles
GPS data
Dashcam footage
Social media posts (from the at-fault driver)

Testimonial Evidence

Witness statements
Expert witness testimony (accident reconstructionists, medical experts)
Your own testimony about how the accident occurred and how your injuries have affected your life

Damages and Compensation: What You Can Recover

Frequently Asked Questions About Car Accidents in Corral City

What should I do immediately after a car accident in Corral City?

If you’ve been in an accident in Corral City:

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

Should I call the police even for a minor accident?

Yes. Always call the police after an accident. In Texas, you’re required to report accidents that result in injury, death, or property damage over $1,000. The police report is critical evidence for your claim.

Should I seek medical attention if I don’t feel hurt?

Absolutely. Many serious injuries, such as traumatic brain injuries and internal bleeding, may not show symptoms immediately. Adrenaline can mask pain at the scene. Insurance companies use delays in treatment against you, so get checked out immediately.

What information should I collect at the scene?

Collect the following information:

Other driver: name, phone number, address, driver’s license number, insurance information
Vehicle: make, model, color, license plate number
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
Apologize or say “I’m sorry” (this can be used as an admission of fault)
Give your opinion on what happened
Speculate about the cause of the accident

How do I obtain a copy of the accident report?

In Corral City, 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 how to handle the conversation.

What if the other driver’s insurance contacts me?

Say: “I need to speak with my attorney first.” Give only basic information (your name, date of accident, that you were involved). Do NOT give a recorded statement or discuss your injuries or fault.

Do I have to accept the insurance company’s estimate?

No. Their estimate is just an offer, and it’s usually far below the actual value of your claim. 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 uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage can compensate you when the other driver has no insurance or insufficient insurance. Texas allows you to stack UM/UIM coverage from multiple policies.

How do you calculate pain and suffering?

Most commonly using the multiplier method: Medical expenses × multiplier (1.5 to 5) = pain and suffering. The multiplier depends on the severity of your injuries, permanency, impact on your life, and clear liability.

What if I was partially at fault?

You can still recover if you were 50% or less at fault. Your recovery will be reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if you’re found 20% at fault for a $100,000 case, you would recover $80,000.

Will my case go to trial?

Most cases settle before trial. However, Attorney911 prepares every case as if it’s going to trial. This approach gives us leverage in negotiations and ensures we’re ready if a fair settlement can’t be reached.

How long will my case take to settle?

The timeline depends on the severity of your injuries. We don’t settle until you’ve reached maximum medical improvement (MMI), which could be 6 months for minor injuries or 18-24 months for serious injuries.

What is the legal process step-by-step?

Investigation and evidence gathering
Medical treatment until MMI
Demand letter to insurance company
Negotiation
Lawsuit if necessary
Discovery (exchange of information)
Mediation
Trial if needed

What is my case worth?

The value of your case depends on:

Severity of your injuries
Cost of medical treatment (past and future)
Lost wages and lost earning capacity
Impact on your daily life
Available insurance coverage
Clear liability

What types of damages can I recover?

You may be entitled to:

Medical expenses (past and future)
Lost wages and lost 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 damages (except in medical malpractice cases).

What if I have a pre-existing condition?

You can still recover if the accident aggravated or worsened your pre-existing condition. This is known as the “eggshell plaintiff” rule – the defendant takes the victim as they find them.

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 for specific advice.

How is the value of my claim determined?

Based on:

Medical bills
Future treatment costs
Lost income
Permanent impairment rating
Comparable verdicts and settlements
Severity of injuries
Impact on daily life

How much do car accident lawyers cost?

Attorney911 works on a contingency fee basis: 33.33% before trial, 40% if the case goes to trial. You pay nothing upfront, and we don’t get paid unless we win your case.

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, and you only pay if we recover compensation for you.

How often will I get updates?

Attorney911 provides regular updates throughout your case. 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 or Lupe Peña, not just paralegals. As Chad Harris shared: “You are NOT a pest to them and you are NOT just some client…You are FAMILY to them.”

What if I already hired another attorney?

You can switch attorneys at any time. Attorney911 has taken over many cases from other firms. 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’m an undocumented immigrant – can I still file a claim?

Yes. Your immigration status does not affect your right to compensation for injuries. You’re entitled to full recovery regardless of immigration status. We’ve successfully represented clients of all immigration statuses, and Lupe is fluent in Spanish.

What if the accident happened in a parking lot?

Parking lot accidents are fully compensable. Insurance companies often try to argue that parking lot accidents are always 50/50 fault, but this is not true. We prove fault through surveillance video, witness statements, and damage analysis.

What if I was a passenger in the at-fault vehicle?

You can sue the driver even if you were riding with them. You’re an innocent victim, and the driver’s insurance covers passengers. There are no comparative fault issues for passengers.

What if the other driver died in the accident?

You can still pursue a claim against the deceased driver’s estate and insurance. The death doesn’t eliminate liability, and the insurance policy still applies.
