Determine the Cause of Your Dallas Car Accident
When road and weather conditions are poor, drivers have a responsibility to share the road safely with other drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians. Doing so can be difficult if a driver is not fully focused on the road and on the safe operation and maneuvering of their vehicle.
Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) research shows the following annual accident statistics:
- 5,891,000 total car accidents
- 1,235,000 weather-related accidents
- 5,000 weather-related accident fatalities
- 418,000 weather-related accident injuries
Rain, sleet, snow, and fog are weather conditions that can lead to these factors that affect road conditions. These factors can create slick, wet, slushy, icy roads that require cautious drivers to slow down, adjust their driving accordingly, and pay added attention to the road. When drivers neglect to do so when faced with adverse weather and road conditions, accidents can happen.
When you are ready to prove that other driver’s negligence in poor weather contributed to the car accident that caused your injuries, contact the personal injury team at Loncar Lyon Jenkins by calling (877) 239-4878. We work hard to ensure our clients receive the compensation they deserve.

Know When to File Your Compensation Claim
When a car accident leaves you with serious injuries, your first priority should be restoring your physical health. While you focus on your health, or on recovering from the loss of a loved one who was killed in an accident, the time you have to file a claim for compensation starts ebbing away.
A Dallas car accident attorney can ensure you comply with Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code §16.003. Known as the statute of limitations, this civil code limits your time to file a lawsuit to two years.
The clock starts ticking on the date of the collision, which means that on your own, you might be forced to start preparing your claim while you are still trying to recuperate from your injuries. When our team represents you in your pursuit of compensation, we focus on building your case while you focus on your health care needs and your family.
Calculate the Cost of Your Injuries
A car accident can lead to severe injuries that require costly and expensive treatment. When we assign a value to the injury portion of your compensation claim, we include all medical expenses to ensure you do not pay for injury-related medical treatments out of your own pocket.
Medical expenses your personal injury claim can seek payment for include:
- Emergency room care
- Follow-up treatments
- Assistive devices
- In-home equipment
- Prescription medication
- Doctor’s office visits
- Hospital stays
When we assign a value to your claim, we also make sure to include the projected cost of any medical care you might need in the future to experience a full recovery, as well as any other expenses and losses created by your injuries.

Calculate the Value of Your Compensation Claim
Your injuries are only one part of your overall claim for compensation. We may also ensure your financial recovery package includes the following expenses and losses you would not have incurred outside of the accident:
- Lost income when injuries prevent you from working
- Compensation for the pain and suffering of your injuries
- Compensation for your mental and emotional trauma
We take time to fully assess your accident-related expenses and losses and to ensure none of the expenses you incurred are overlooked. Our goal is to ensure the settlement offer you receive is not undervalued and that your claim for compensation is not underpaid.
Fight for a Settlement Amount That Covers Your Total Losses
After you are involved in a car accident caused by adverse road and weather conditions, you may be eligible to file a personal injury insurance claim or lawsuit against the at-fault driver. A successful personal injury claim can compel the at-fault driver and their insurer to cover your expenses that resulted from the accident.
Your case is likely to be resolved with a financial settlement from the insurance company. Our team will help negotiate a favorable settlement with the insurer that fully covers the cost of the collision.
Whether you accept or reject a settlement offer from the insurance company is always up to you. We offer advice on the true value of your claim and on whether a settlement offer can fully cover the financial impact of the collision.
File a Claim for the Compensation You Deserve
Are you ready to hold the at-fault driver responsible for their actions and for your current condition? A Dallas accident caused by failure to heed changing weather or road condition lawyer can help you get the compensation you deserve.
