Car accidents can happen in many different ways, and each type of crash presents unique challenges. Our attorneys have extensive experience handling a wide range of car accident cases, including:
- Rear-End Collisions: Often caused by distracted driving or following too closely, rear-end collisions can result in serious injuries like whiplash and spinal damage.
- Head-On Collisions: These high-impact crashes can lead to severe injuries and even fatalities. We fight for maximum compensation in these life-altering cases.
- T-Bone Accidents: Also known as side-impact collisions, these accidents often occur at intersections and can cause significant injuries due to the lack of protection on the side of vehicles.
- Rollover Accidents: Rollover crashes can result in catastrophic injuries, especially in vehicles with a high center of gravity. We’re experienced in handling these complex cases.
- Hit-and-Run Accidents: If the at-fault driver fled the scene, we can help you explore all avenues for compensation, including uninsured motorist coverage.
- Drunk Driving Accidents: Drunk driving is a leading cause of car accidents. We aggressively pursue compensation from intoxicated drivers and their insurers.
What Compensation Can You Recover After a Car Accident?
After a car accident, you may be entitled to various forms of compensation to cover your losses. Our attorneys work to ensure you receive full and fair compensation for all your damages.
Categories of Compensation
- Medical Expenses: This includes all medical costs related to your injury, such as emergency care, hospital stays, surgeries, medications, rehabilitation, and any future medical needs.
- Lost Wages: If your injuries prevent you from working, you may be entitled to compensation for your lost income, as well as future lost earning capacity.
- Pain and Suffering: Beyond financial losses, car accidents can cause significant physical pain and emotional distress. We seek compensation for the pain and suffering you’ve endured.
- Property Damage: We’ll help you recover the costs of repairing or replacing your damaged vehicle and any other personal property affected by the crash.
- Punitive Damages: In cases involving particularly reckless or malicious behavior, such as drunk driving, you may be entitled to punitive damages designed to punish the at-fault party and deter similar conduct.

Should I hire an attorney if I've been involved in a car crash?
If you are injured in an auto collision then you should speak with an attorney to see if they can help you.

What should I do when I’m in a car crash?
If you’re in a crash, your first priority should be seeking immediate medical attention for any catastrophic or life-threatening injuries. Afterward, gather insurance information and take pictures of the scene. Even if your injuries seem less severe, seek medical attention if pain or swelling develops. Notify your insurance company about the collision if necessary, and most importantly, reach out to McMahon Dean for legal support. We’re here to guide you through the next steps and protect your rights.
The insurance company offered me a small amount of money for my injuries, should I take it?
Absolutely not. Insurance companies prey on people after a crash. Often people are in need of cash after a car crash because they had to miss work or need a rental car. But the reality is these settlement offers are ridiculously low and do not account for all of your injuries and needs. If an insurance company offers you money you should call MaMahon Dean to discuss the offer and see what your rights are.
How is fault decided in a car crash?
- That is a complicated question, but some general guidelines are:
- Not following the law is the easiest way to decide fault.
- Not acting as a prudent driver
- Being distracted – texting, eating, reading, etc.
My doctor won’t treat me because I was in a car wreck, what should I do?
Many doctors won’t treat people after a car wreck for fear of being involved in litigation, but there are doctors out there that are willing to treat those injured during a car wreck. At McMahon Dean, we can help you find the care that you need from the best doctors in Texas.
I can’t afford an attorney, will you still help me?
Absolutely. We do not charge an hourly rate. In fact, we do not collect any money unless you win your case. We front all the cost of the litigation and only recover those costs if your case is success. Essentially, you do not pay unless we win.
How do I choose an attorney?
- Personal referrals are the best way to find an attorney. Ask other attorneys that you may know even if they don’t practice personal injury. Ask friends or family that have used attorneys in the past.
- You should also interview any potential attorney that you may want to hire and make sure they are the right attorney for you.
What are some red flags when looking for an attorney?
- You can’t speak to an actual attorney before you sign the contract.
- A firm that promises you a lot of money or tells you the value of your case on the first phone call.
- Firm that use pre-litigation case managers to handle cases before a lawsuit is filed.
- A law firm that doesn’t specialize in personal injury
What about the firms I see on TV. Should I call them?
- As a general rule attorneys that you see on TV do not have the capacity to give your case the individual attention that it needs. They are a machine and every case is treated the exact same as it moves through their process.
- These firms generally have high attorney turnover and often your case will be passed from attorney to attorney during the process.
- Large advertising firms want to sign up as many cases as possible and then settle those cases as quickly as possible. Their goal is to generate income, not to maximize each case for the best outcome for the client.
Is there anything that I can do to help my lawsuit?
- Yes. One thing is to make all your social media private. Insurance companies will use photos and posts against you
- Make sure you stay on top of your medical care. Gaps in treatment are often used to convince a jury that you aren’t hurt.
- Track all of your out-of-pocket expenses.
- Do not speak to the other party’s insurance company without representation.
If I’m in a collision, should I call the police?
Yes. You should call the police but often in large metropolitan areas the police departments are understaffed, and they likely will not come to the scene unless someone is incapacitated or in need of an ambulance.
