Arlington Auto Accident Lawyer

If you or a loved one sustained injuries in a car accident due to another party’s negligence, you might be eligible for compensation to cover your damages. Our Arlington auto accident lawyers from Loncar Lyon Jenkins want to fight for you. Our auto accident attorneys take on car accident cases daily. We know what it takes to develop a strong case and win compensation for our clients.

How Can An Arlington Auto Accident Attorney Help?

If we determine that you have a case, we take all future work off your hands. We do it all for you so that you can focus on what’s more important, like your healing and relationships. We keep you updated and informed during your case and answer any questions you have for us, too.

When one of our auto accident lawyers takes on your case, their job is to handle the following tasks on your behalf:

  • Investigating the accident
  • Obtaining and organizing documents that show proof of your injuries, such as medical records and medical bills
  • Acquiring the accident report
  • Gathering evidence, including pictures and videos of your injuries, the vehicles involved, and the scene of the accident (we may bring in specialized investigators for assistance)
  • Contacting and interviewing witnesses to the accident, if there were any
  • Hiring a medical expert and/or accident reconstructionist if deemed necessary
  • Identifying the liable party
  • Filing your accident claim with the appropriate insurance company
  • Communicating with the insurance adjusters for you
  • Negotiating with the insurance company for a settlement if need be
  • Litigating your case if we cannot reach an agreement on your settlement with the claims adjuster
  • Appearing in court for you and making your case at trial
  • Assessing and calculating your economic and non-economic damages

This is not an exhaustive list of everything we can do for you. We are devoted to protecting your rights and fighting for you. We are not afraid of insurance companies. Your lawyer will be well aware of the tactics adjusters use against claimants to pay them smaller settlements than they deserve. Our team will not let you get lowballed.

Establishing the Other Party’s Negligence

To get you compensated for your losses, we must prove the at-fault party’s negligence. The liable party could be the driver, the driver’s employer, the vehicle’s manufacturer, a mechanic, or a government agency. To establish their wrongdoing, we must show that:

  • They owed you a duty of care
  • They breached their duty of care
  • Their breach of duty caused your injuries
  • You have damages due to their negligence

Without illustrating these four elements of negligence, you likely will not have a case. Our legal team can visit the accident scene, obtain necessary documents, interview witnesses, identify the responsible party, and seek fair compensation for you to cover your current and future medical care and other expenses.

Our auto accident attorneys know how to show negligence and liability in personal injury claims. Not only can we build a case for you, but we will also do so on a contingency fee basis. We do not ask our clients to pay a retainer or any other upfront fees. Our attorney’s fees come only from the compensation we recover in your case. If we do not negotiate a settlement or win the case in court, we do not get paid.

If you want an attorney that treats you like family, answers all your questions with ease and will fight for you, just ask for Justin Edwards! It was such a relief knowing he was on my side. He followed through with everything he promised and that is a rare attribute to find in a person these days. Just go ahead and give them a call!

The guidance and patience exhibited by Attorney LaRue and his team were paramount in the successful navigation of this event for my family and I. In a perfect world I won't have to ring his phone anytime soon, but should the Truck of Life dump on me again, I wouldn't hesitate to dial them up.

2021 Arlington Car Accident Statistics

Common Recoverable Damages in a Car Accident Case

There may be several economic and non-economic damages you receive compensation for. We will work to get you every dime you deserve. Once we calculate your damages, we will know what amount of compensation to pursue.

Below are typical damages that car accident victims are awarded compensation for:

  • Past, current, and future medical bills
  • Pain and suffering
  • Emotional distress
  • Disability
  • Disfigurement
  • Loss of pleasure in life
  • Ongoing care costs
  • Physical therapy
  • Counseling
  • Cost of repairs to your vehicle or replacement of it
  • Property damage to personal belongings
  • Lost wages/diminished earnings
  • Lost business opportunities
  • Paralysis
  • Trauma

You may have other damages not listed here that you could receive money for. We will make sure to protect your right to compensation. For instance, you might not be the only victim. Your passengers could also be eligible for damages.

What is the Statute Of Limitations in Texas?

It is imperative to acknowledge that you do not have unlimited time to seek a financial award from the liable party or their insurance company. In Texas, you generally have two years to file either a personal injury or wrongful death lawsuit. Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code § 16.003 imposes this timeline.

If settlement negotiations are unsuccessful, the next step for your lawyer to take is fighting for you in court. Our car accident lawyers want to get to work on your claim. They must have ample time to create a robust case. So, you should not waste time after your Arlington accident.

How Much Does it Cost to Hire An Arlington Auto Accident Lawyer?

You pay our firm nothing up front if you decide to work with us. We know that many car accident victims get put in a tough spot financially after the fact. Our team does not want to add to those expenses by asking you to pay upon hiring us. We simply want to help you and ease your stress, not make things worse.

You also never pay your lawyer out of pocket. If we win a settlement, judgment, or jury verdict for you, our attorney’s fees come from your monetary award. If we do not succeed, however, we get paid nothing. Working under this contingency fee arrangement has no financial risks, so there is nothing to lose.
