What Can a Whiplash Lawyer in Frisco, TX, Do for You?
One of our personal injury attorneys’ primary duties involves proving negligence. This is the inability to act like a reasonable person in the same situation. Every driver is expected to obey traffic signals, accommodate pedestrian traffic, and maintain a safe braking distance. Failure to act as a reasonable motorist constitutes negligence.
With your case’s evidence, we must prove:
- The other motorist owed you a duty of care.
- The other motorist violated their duty of care by being reckless or careless.
- You suffered whiplash as a direct result of their breached duty.
- Your injuries have financial, emotional, and physical repercussions, and you should be compensated.

What You Should Do in the Aftermath of a Frisco Car Accident
Mayo Clinic reports that whiplash usually heals on its own within a matter of weeks. However, this should not stop you from visiting a doctor as soon as possible. You can tell your physician of any accident issues you’ve noticed, such as if the range of motion in your neck has changed or needs more medical attention. Medications, physical therapy, and other measures could help your recovery period. The information from your healthcare provider can also be used as evidence in your case.
In addition to seeking medical attention, you should:
Direct the Insurer to Your Lawyer
Once you partner with our team, you do not have to answer phone calls from the insurance company. Instead, direct them to us. We can:
- Defend you against bad faith insurance practices
- Present evidence to prove your claim
- Identify the liable policy
- Answer their emails, phone calls, and text messages
- Advise you on any valid settlement offers
Insurance companies do not always act in claimants’ best interests. We do.
Refrain From Posting About the Event Online
Social media is not your friend while your case unfolds. Anything you share online can and will be used against you by the claims adjuster. You should not:
- Make posts about the collision and your injuries
- Upload pictures of yourself online (even if they are old pictures)
- Send messages to the at-fault party
- Share posts from other users
- Share videos of yourself
We can suggest other measures regarding social media when you connect with our team.
Document Your Losses
Your medical bills, wage statements, and property damage receipts are important. We can use these documents to determine the value of your case. Either in a diary or Word document, you should also document:
- Your daily pain levels
- Details about your recovery period
- The medications you are prescribed
- Your doctor’s appointments and physical therapy sessions
- Your emotional state
Your testimony holds a great deal of power in a car accident case.
We Can Address These Challenges to Your Case
Managing a car accident case while suffering from whiplash is no easy task. Sometimes, the financial recovery process can be fraught with complications. We can address the following issues in your case (should they arise):
The Insurer Denies Your Claim
The insurance company might deny your claim even if you are entitled to compensation. We will present evidence and attempt to negotiate a settlement. If they continue to delay the process, we can file a lawsuit directly against the negligent driver. Sometimes, after learning that we intend to go to court, insurance companies offer fair settlements.
The Insurance Company Accuses You of Being at Fault
Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code § 33.001 says you can recover compensation if you did not primarily cause the wreck. Even if you were 48 percent responsible for what happened, you can still recover 52 percent of your damages.
With the evidence we collect, we may find that you did not cause the accident at all. This could be pivotal in helping you secure the money you need.
You Don’t Have Evidence to Support Your Whiplash Case
We can investigate your case to gather evidence. You do not need to worry about requesting information from different agencies or talking to witnesses. We will do that for you. We can:
- Subpoena traffic camera footage and phone records
- Request a copy of the police report
- Interview the paramedics who arrived at the accident scene
- Visit the accident scene and search for physical evidence
- Consult with accident reconstruction specialists
Now is the time to focus on recovering from your injuries, not serving as your own private investigator.
