Common Types of Motor Vehicle Accidents in Frankston

Motor vehicle accidents in Frankston can happen anywhere, but some of the most common types we see include:

Car Accidents

With 251,977 people injured in Texas motor vehicle crashes in 2024 alone, car accidents are the most common type of crash in Frankston. These accidents often result in:

Whiplash and soft tissue injuries
Herniated or bulging discs
Broken bones and fractures
Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
Spinal cord injuries
Internal organ damage

Case Example: 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.

Trucking Accidents

Frankston’s location near U.S. Highway 79 means we see our share of trucking accidents. These crashes are particularly dangerous due to the size and weight of commercial vehicles. In 2024, there were 39,393 commercial motor vehicle crashes in Texas, resulting in 608 fatalities and 1,601 serious injuries.

Why Trucking Cases Are Different:

Multiple liable parties (driver, trucking company, cargo loader, manufacturer)
Higher insurance limits (often $1 million or more)
Federal regulations (FMCSA) that can prove negligence
More severe injuries due to the size disparity between trucks and passenger vehicles

Case Example: At Attorney911, our personal injury attorneys have helped numerous injured individuals and families facing trucking-related wrongful death cases recover millions of dollars in compensation.

Drunk Driving Accidents

In 2024, there were 1,053 alcohol-impaired driving deaths in Texas—25.37% of all traffic fatalities. Drunk driving accidents often result in catastrophic injuries or wrongful death.

Why These Cases Are Valuable:

Punitive damages may be available
Dram shop liability allows claims against bars/restaurants that over-served the driver
Criminal case can strengthen civil claim

Our Advantage: Ralph Manginello is a member of the Harris County Criminal Lawyers Association (HCCLA), giving us unique insight into both the criminal and civil aspects of drunk driving cases.

Motorcycle Accidents

With 585 motorcyclist fatalities in Texas in 2024, motorcycle accidents are particularly dangerous. In Frankston, riders on FM 321 and other rural roads are especially vulnerable.

Key Issues in Motorcycle Cases:

Insurance companies often try to blame the rider
Texas’ 51% comparative fault rule can bar recovery if the rider is found 51% or more at fault
Injuries are often severe due to lack of protection

Pedestrian Accidents

Pedestrians are the most vulnerable road users. In 2024, there were 6,095 pedestrian crashes in Texas, resulting in 768 fatalities. Pedestrians account for just 1% of crashes but 19% of all roadway deaths.

Important Legal Point: In Texas, pedestrians always have the right-of-way at intersections—even at unmarked crosswalks.

Other Common Accident Types in Frankston

Hit and Run Accidents: Every 43 seconds, someone in the U.S. is involved in a hit-and-run accident. Your own UM/UIM coverage can compensate you when the at-fault driver flees.
Weather-Related Accidents: Frankston’s rural roads can become particularly hazardous during rain or fog.
Intersection Accidents: Many accidents in Frankston occur at intersections like the junction of U.S. 79 and FM 321.

What to Do After a Motor Vehicle Accident in Frankston

The moments after an accident can be chaotic and confusing. Here’s what you should do:

First 24 Hours

Safety First: If you can move safely, get to a secure location away from traffic.
Call 911: Report the accident and request medical assistance if anyone is injured.
Seek Medical Attention: Even if you feel fine, get checked by a medical professional. Adrenaline can mask injuries, and some conditions (like traumatic brain injuries) may not show symptoms immediately.
Document Everything:
- Take photos of all vehicle damage (every angle)
- Photograph the accident scene, road conditions, and traffic signals
- Take photos of any visible injuries
- Screenshot any messages visible on your phone (do NOT delete anything)
Exchange Information:
- Other driver’s name, phone number, address
- Insurance company and policy number
- Driver’s license number
- License plate number
- Vehicle make, model, and color
Witnesses: Get names and phone numbers of any witnesses.
Call Attorney911: 1-888-ATTY-911 for immediate legal guidance before speaking to any insurance company.

Next 48 Hours

Preserve Evidence: Keep all texts, calls, photos, and videos related to the accident. Do NOT delete anything.
Physical Evidence: Secure damaged clothing, glasses, or other personal items. Do NOT repair your vehicle yet.
Medical Records: Request copies of all ER/hospital records and keep all discharge paperwork.
Insurance Communications: Note any calls from insurance companies. Do NOT give recorded statements, sign anything, or accept settlement offers without consulting an attorney.
Social Media: Make all profiles private immediately. Do NOT post about the accident, your injuries, or your activities.

Week One Priorities

Follow Up with Medical Care: Continue documenting all injuries and follow all doctor recommendations.
Legal Consultation: Speak with an experienced motor vehicle accident attorney.
Evidence Preservation: Attorney911 sends preservation letters to all parties to ensure critical evidence (like surveillance footage) isn’t deleted.

Why You Need an Attorney After a Frankston Motor Vehicle Accident

After an accident, insurance companies move quickly to protect their own interests—not yours. Here’s why you need an attorney:

Insurance Companies Are Not on Your Side

Insurance adjusters are trained to minimize payouts. They may:

Offer quick, lowball settlements before you know the full extent of your injuries
Request recorded statements to use against you
Delay processing your claim in hopes you’ll accept less
Use surveillance or social media to undermine your injury claims

Our Advantage: Lupe Peña, one of our attorneys, spent years working for a national insurance defense firm. He knows their tactics because he used them—and now he uses that knowledge to fight for victims.

The Legal Process Is Complex

Texas law has specific rules that affect your case:

Statute of Limitations: You have just 2 years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit. Miss this deadline, and your case is barred forever.
Comparative Fault: Texas uses a “51% bar rule.” If you’re found 51% or more at fault, you recover nothing. If you’re 50% or less at fault, your recovery is reduced by your percentage of fault.
Minimum Coverage: Texas requires only $30,000 in bodily injury coverage per person, $60,000 per accident, and $25,000 in property damage. Many drivers carry only the minimum, which may not cover serious injuries.

We Handle Everything So You Can Focus on Recovery

When you hire Attorney911, we:

Investigate your accident thoroughly
Gather and preserve critical evidence
Handle all communications with insurance companies
Negotiate aggressively for maximum compensation
Prepare your case for trial if necessary

As client Stephanie Hernandez said: “When I felt I had no hope or direction, Leonor reached out to me… She took all the weight of my worries off my shoulders.”

What You Can Recover in a Motor Vehicle Accident Case

If you’ve been injured in a motor vehicle accident in Frankston, you may be entitled to compensation for:

Economic Damages (No Cap in Texas)

Medical Expenses (Past and Future): ER visits, hospital stays, surgeries, doctor visits, physical therapy, medications, medical equipment, and future medical care.

Lost Earning Capacity: If your injuries prevent you from returning to your previous job or reduce your ability to earn income in the future.
Property Damage: Repair or replacement of your vehicle and other personal property.
Out-of-Pocket Expenses: Transportation to medical appointments, home modifications, and household help.

Non-Economic Damages (No Cap Except Medical Malpractice)

Pain and Suffering: Physical pain from your injuries, both past and future.
Mental Anguish: Emotional distress, anxiety, depression, fear, and PTSD.
Physical Impairment: Loss of physical function or disability.

Loss of Enjoyment of Life: Inability to participate in activities you previously enjoyed.

Punitive Damages (Capped)

Available in cases of gross negligence, fraud, or malice (e.g., drunk driving).
Capped at the greater of $200,000 or 2x economic damages + 1x non-economic damages (capped at $750,000 for the non-economic portion).

How Much Is My Frankston Motor Vehicle Accident Case Worth?

The value of your case depends on several factors, including:

Factor	How It Affects Your Case
Severity of Injuries	More severe injuries generally result in higher settlements. For example, a herniated disc requiring surgery is worth more than a soft tissue injury.
Medical Bills	Higher medical costs typically lead to higher settlements.
Lost Wages	Significant lost income or reduced earning capacity increases case value.
Permanent Impairment	Injuries that result in long-term or permanent disability are valued higher.
Clear Liability	If the other driver is clearly at fault, your case is stronger.
Insurance Coverage	More insurance coverage means more potential compensation.
Impact on Daily Life	Injuries that significantly affect your daily activities increase case value.

Settlement Ranges by Injury Type

Injury Type	Medical Treatment Costs	Settlement Range
Soft Tissue (Whiplash, Sprains, Strains)	$6,000-$16,000	$15,000-$60,000
Broken Bone (Single, Simple Fracture)	$10,000-$20,000	$35,000-$95,000
Broken Bone (Requiring Surgery)	$47,000-$98,000	$132,000-$328,000
Herniated Disc (Conservative Treatment)	$22,000-$46,000	$70,000-$171,000
Herniated Disc (Surgery Required)	$96,000-$205,000	$346,000-$1,205,000
Traumatic Brain Injury (Moderate to Severe)	$198,000-$638,000+	$1,548,000-$9,838,000
Spinal Cord Injury / Paralysis	$500,000-$13,000,000+ (lifetime)	$4,770,000-$25,880,000
Amputation	$170,000-$480,000 (initial)	$1,945,000-$8,630,000
Wrongful Death (Working Age Adult)	$60,000-$500,000+	$1,910,000-$9,520,000

Note: These ranges are estimates based on Texas cases. Every case is unique, and past results do not guarantee future outcomes.

How Attorney911 Maximizes Your Compensation

We Know How Insurance Companies Value Claims

Most insurance companies use a software system called Colossus to calculate claim values. Adjusters input injury codes, treatment types, and other data, and the software outputs a recommended settlement range.

The Problem: Colossus is programmed to undervalue serious injuries. Adjusters are trained to use the lowest possible injury codes and flag “excessive” treatment.

Our Advantage: Lupe Peña used Colossus for years while working for insurance companies. He knows:

How to code injuries properly for maximum value
Which medical terms trigger higher valuations
When Colossus output is artificially low
How to present records to beat the algorithm

We Prepare Every Case for Trial

While most cases settle, we prepare every case as if it’s going to trial. This approach gives us leverage in negotiations because insurance companies know we’re not bluffing.

Our Trial Credentials:

Ralph Manginello is admitted to practice in the U.S. District Court, Southern District of Texas.
Our firm was one of the few involved in BP explosion litigation, demonstrating our ability to handle complex, high-stakes cases.
We have a proven track record of securing multi-million dollar settlements and verdicts.

We Don’t Accept Lowball Offers

Insurance companies often make low initial offers, hoping you’ll accept out of financial desperation. We know their tactics and fight for what your case is truly worth.

As client Glenda Walker said: “They make you feel like family and even though the process may take some time, they make it feel like a breeze. They fought for me to get every dime I deserved.”

Why Choose Attorney911 for Your Frankston Motor Vehicle Accident Case?

1. Insurance Defense Insider Advantage

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

This is Attorney911’s most powerful advantage. Lupe spent years working for insurance companies, learning:

How they value claims internally
Their settlement authority structures
Their delay and defense tactics
How they select IME (Independent Medical Exam) doctors
How they use surveillance and social media monitoring

Now, he uses that knowledge to fight for victims—not against them.

2. Multi-Million Dollar Results

We’ve recovered millions for clients with serious injuries, including:

Brain Injuries: “Multi-million dollar settlement for client who suffered brain injury with vision loss when log dropped on him at logging company.”
Amputations: “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.”
Trucking Wrongful Death: “At Attorney911, our personal injury attorneys have helped numerous injured individuals and families facing trucking-related wrongful death cases recover millions of dollars in compensation.”
Maritime Injuries: “In a recent case, our client injured his back while lifting cargo on a ship. Our investigation revealed that he should have been assisted in this duty, and we were able to reach a significant cash settlement.”

3. Federal Court Experience

Ralph Manginello is admitted to practice in the U.S. District Court, Southern District of Texas. This is crucial for:

Complex cases that may end up in federal court
FMCSA trucking cases with federal regulations
Cases against out-of-state defendants
High-stakes litigation against major corporations

4. BP Explosion Litigation Experience

“Our firm is one of the few firms in Texas to be involved in BP explosion litigation.”

The 2005 BP Texas City explosion killed 15 people and injured 180 others. Our involvement in this complex, high-profile litigation demonstrates our ability to handle catastrophic injury cases against billion-dollar corporations.

5. Personal Attention You Can Trust

At Attorney911, you’re not just another case number. You’ll work directly with our attorneys, not case managers. As client Brian Butchee said:

“Melanie was excellent. She kept me informed and when she said she would call me back, she did. I got to speak with Ralph Manginello once and knew quickly the way his Firm was ran.”

6. No Fee Unless We Win

We work on a contingency fee basis—you pay nothing unless we win your case. There are no upfront costs, and we advance all case expenses. If we don’t recover compensation for you, you owe us nothing.

As client Kiimarii Yup shared: “I lost everything… my car was at a total loss and because of Attorney Manginello and my case worker Leonor… 1 year later I have gained so much in return plus a brand new truck.”

Frequently Asked Questions About Motor Vehicle Accidents in Frankston

Immediate After Accident

What should I do immediately after a car accident in Frankston, Texas?
If you’ve been in an accident in Frankston:

Call 911 and report the accident.
Seek medical attention even if you feel fine (adrenaline masks injuries).
Document everything: photos of damage, injuries, and the scene.
Exchange information with the other driver.
Get witness names and phone numbers.
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. 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.
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 Frankston, you can obtain the police report from the responding agency or through the Texas Department of Transportation’s Crash Records Information System (CRIS).

Dealing with Insurance

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.

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/underinsured?
Your own UM/UIM coverage can compensate you. Watch our video: “Uninsured & Underinsured Motorists” at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kWcNFyb-Yq8

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.

Legal Process

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?
It depends on the severity of your injuries. We don’t settle until you’ve reached maximum medical improvement (MMI). This 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 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

Compensation

What is my case worth?
It 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.

Attorney Relationship

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.”

Mistakes to Avoid

What common mistakes can hurt my case?

Giving a recorded statement without an attorney
Accepting a quick settlement
Delaying medical treatment
Gaps in treatment
Posting on social media
Signing releases or authorizations
Not documenting everything

Watch our video: “Client Mistakes That Can Ruin Your Case” at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r3IYsoxOSxY

Should I post about my accident on social media?
NO. Make all profiles private. Don’t post about the accident, your injuries, or your activities. Insurance monitors everything.

Why shouldn’t I sign anything without a lawyer?
Releases are PERMANENT. Medical authorizations give unlimited access. Settlement offers are binding. Once signed, you can’t undo it.

What if I didn’t see a doctor right away?
See one NOW. Explain that you didn’t realize the severity of your injuries. Delayed symptoms are common. We can still help.

Additional Common Questions

What if I have a pre-existing condition?
You can still recover. If the accident AGGRAVATED your pre-existing condition, you’re entitled to compensation for the aggravation. The “eggshell plaintiff” rule means the defendant takes the victim as they find them.

For example: You had mild occasional back pain before the accident. After the accident, you developed a herniated disc requiring surgery. You can recover for the NEW injury, not just the pre-existing pain.

We hire medical experts to prove the difference. Lupe knows how insurance companies attack pre-existing conditions—he used this defense for years.

Can I switch attorneys if I’m unhappy with my current lawyer?
YES. You can fire your attorney at any time. If your attorney isn’t communicating, isn’t fighting for you, or is pushing you to settle for less than your case is worth, you have the right to switch.

Attorney911 has taken over many cases from other attorneys. As 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.”

Call 1-888-ATTY-911 to discuss switching.

What if the insurance company is my own insurance (UM/UIM claim)?
Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM) claims are against YOUR insurance when the other driver has no insurance or insufficient insurance. Your insurance company will fight your claim just like the other driver’s insurance would. You need attorney representation.

Texas allows inter-policy stacking (combining multiple UM policies). Lupe’s insurance knowledge is critical for maximizing UM/UIM recovery.

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 injury severity, permanency, impact on life, and clear liability.

For example: $100,000 in medical expenses × 4 multiplier = $400,000 for pain and suffering.

Lupe calculated these multipliers for years while working for insurance companies. He knows how to justify higher multipliers.

What if I was hit by a government vehicle (city bus, police car, etc.)?
Government claims have special rules. You must file a notice of claim within 6 months (much shorter than the 2-year statute of limitations). Sovereign immunity protects government entities, and damage caps may apply.

These cases are complex—you need an experienced attorney. Ralph’s 25+ years of experience includes government litigation. Call 1-888-ATTY-911 immediately—the 6-month deadline is strict.

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—gas stations, businesses, Ring doorbells, and traffic cameras may have captured the incident. Most footage is deleted within 7-30 days.

We send preservation letters immediately to secure this evidence. Texas allows UM stacking. We’ve recovered substantial settlements in hit-and-run cases through UM claims.

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. Your case is confidential.

We’ve successfully represented clients of all immigration statuses. Lupe is fluent in Spanish. Call 1-888-ATTY-911—we protect your rights and your privacy.

What if the accident happened in a parking lot?
Parking lot accidents are fully compensable. Insurance companies often argue that “parking lot accidents are always 50/50 fault,” but this is not true. We prove fault through:

Surveillance video
Witness statements
Damage analysis
Traffic patterns

Texas comparative negligence rules apply. We’ve won many parking lot cases with clear liability findings.

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. The driver’s insurance covers passengers. There are no comparative fault issues (you weren’t driving).

These cases often settle quickly because liability is clear. We handle the difficult conversations so you don’t have to.
