Safe driving means paying attention to the operation of your own car, all the vehicles sharing the road with you, and the road and weather conditions at the time you are driving. When you or someone you love is injured in a car accident because another driver disregarded the road and weather conditions, you are entitled to financial compensation.
According to Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) information, slowing down and driving in keeping with the current conditions can help avoid accidents. If another driver failed to do so, you can hold them financially responsible for your resulting injuries, any related expenses, and for the cost of any damage to your property.
When you are ready to seek financial compensation from the at-fault driver, contact our case review team to find out how a McAllen accident caused by failure to heed changing weather or road condition lawyer can help. Call 877-239-4878 to reach a personal injury team member at Loncar Lyon Jenkins today.
Get Your Personal Injury Claim Started Right Away
The weeks and months immediately after a car accident can revolve around recovering from your physical injuries. The time you spend on your physical recovery can draw your attention away from starting your compensation claim against the at-fault driver. When you work with a lawyer, he can focus on your financial recovery while you work with your health care team to restore your physical health.
Because your accident occurred in McAllen, your case must be filed in accordance with the statute of limitations in Texas. According to Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code § 16.003, you generally have two years to file a personal injury lawsuit. If you do not file your lawsuit within the state’s predetermined timeline:
- You will not be able to file it at all once the allotted time has expired
- The at-fault driver can no longer be compelled to pay your expenses
- The full financial weight of the accident will fall to you and your family
Our team can help you avoid the negative and costly impact of letting time run out on your right to financial recovery. The sooner you contact a member of our client intake team, the sooner we can go to work on your claim. Our team will make sure your case file is complete, your claim is accurately valued, and your personal injury lawsuit complies with the relevant statute of limitations.

You Can Recover These Accident-Related Financial Damages
Filing a personal injury insurance claim or lawsuit involves a plethora of moving parts. Assigning a monetary value to your claim for compensation is an important part of your case, because miscalculating your claim can lead to a financial settlement that does not fully cover the expenses and losses of the accident.
According to Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code § 41.001, you can request financial compensation for the following economic and non-economic recoverable damages:
- Current and future medical expenses
- Current and future loss of income
- Physical pain and suffering
- Mental and emotional distress
- Physical disability or disfigurement
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Repairing or replacing your vehicle
A McAllen accident caused by failure to heed changing weather or road condition lawyer can ensure that you do not overlook any expenses when calculating your financial damage. They can also make sure you do not accept a settlement offer before the full financial impact of the accident is known. When you are ready to carefully calculate the cost of the accident you were involved in, contact the case review team at Loncar Lyon Jenkins by calling 877-239-4878.
Recover Your Expenses and Losses with a Financial Settlement
You are entitled financial recovery for the entire range of expenses you incur as the result of a car accident in McAllen. Like most personal injury cases, yours is more likely to be resolved with a financial settlement than by going to court. Because you—not your lawyer—have the final say on whether or not to accept a settlement offer, you should be aware that:
- Accepting a settlement permanently resolves your claim to compensation
- Even if you find additional expenses after you accept a settlement, you cannot request additional compensation
On your own, it can be easy to overlook the cost of medications or assistive medical devices (like crutches or braces) when calculating your medical expenses. Review the full financial impact of the accident with your lawyer to ensure you do not overlook any compensation you are due.
