We Can Handle Common Challenges with Insurance Companies
It is not uncommon to hear from an insurance company soon after the accident. Insurance companies often contact accident victims while they are vulnerable and have not yet hired legal representation. The initial settlement offer they make is most likely a low dollar amount designed to close your claim for the least amount possible. This protects their best interests and not yours.
Accepting a settlement offer without legal representation can compromise your future medical care. Once you accept the offer, you are generally barred from pursuing civil action in the future should your medical condition worsen.
Your injuries require your full attention. Do not let aggressive insurance company representatives pressure you during this stressful time. An injury lawyer from our team can:
- Handle any unfair denials of your claim
- Ensure that you are not unfairly blamed for more of the accident than you are responsible for
- Take your case to trial, if the insurer won’t agree to a fair settlement

Forms of Negligence That Can Lead to Car Accidents
We will gather all evidence of what might have led to the crash. Common forms of negligence that can cause car accidents include:
- Distracted driving: Distracted driving kills eight people each day, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
- Aggressive driving: Speeding, running red lights, and tailgating are all aggressive driving, as the supports AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety.
- Driving while intoxicated (DWI): Drivers who meet or exceed the blood alcohol legal limit of .08 percent, have drugs in their system, or both can be charged with DWI.
- Drowsy driving: Drifting off behind the wheel due to a lack of sleep can cause serious accidents.
These are just a few examples of how a driver in Lubbock may be careless or reckless. If you were injured in an accident, resulting in serious injuries that disrupted your quality of life, you could secure an award. You do not have to endure this alone. A car accident lawyer from Loncar Lyon Jenkins can determine the best course of legal action for you.
It takes just one driver engaging in reckless behavior to result in injuries that can last a lifetime. If you experienced serious injuries due to the reckless actions of another driver, Loncar Lyon Jenkins is there.
The Clock is Ticking on the Timeline to File Suit
The Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code § 16.001 states that the statute of limitations for filing your civil case is two years. Serious injuries or the death of a loved one can turn your days into a blur. Before you know it, the window for a lawsuit will close.
The time for filing your case begins the moment you become injured or your loved one dies. Twenty-four months is not very long during a stressful time. Let our team worry about deadlines and paperwork regarding your case. We can ensure that all required documents reach the court within the proper time frame.
