On average, more than one person dies daily in a Texas car accident. This computes to over 3,700 car accident fatalities annually in the state. The accident rate is comparable in Amarillo when contrasted with all of the Lone Star State. In addition, over 17,000 people sustain serious injuries in car accidents in Texas annually.
A collision with a semi-truck is likely to have catastrophic consequences. The reality is that in most cases involving a collision between a passenger automobile and a semi-truck, serious and even fatal injuries are likely to result. And, these injuries and fatalities are nearly always associated with the people in the passenger vehicle.
Over 10,000 accidents involving motorcycles occur in Texas annually, including in Amarillo. Approximately 6,000 motorcyclists are seriously injured in these accidents. Between 450 and 500 bikers or their passengers are killed. The legal team at our firm has represented scores of people who have been injured or who have lost loved ones in serious Amarillo motorcycle accidents.

If you are the victim of an accident caused by someone else’s negligence, you need to take care not to do something that might jeopardize your legal interests. Chief among the mistakes you need to avoid is answering questions from a representative of an insurance company before you have consulted with an Amarillo accident lawyer.
Insurance companies are in business for one primary reason. They exist to make money for their shareholders and other stakeholders. An insurance company improves its bottom line each time it denies a claim or settles one for an amount of money below what circumstances warrant.
When an insurance company contacts you following an accident, explain that you want to talk to your lawyer first. Answer no questions. Tell the insurance company representation your attorney will get back to them shortly.
Every personal injury lawsuit is unique. Some personal injury cases may be resolved in as little as a few months, but others may take over a year to conclude. The timeline of your specific case will depend on the severity of your injuries, the number of parties involved in the incident, and whether or not your case goes to trial. Call the Doan Law Firm today to speak with a experienced attorney about your specific case.
Contrary to popular belief, the vast majority of personal injury lawsuits in Amarillo will be settled outside of the courtroom. In many cases, the other party’s insurance company will offer a reasonable settlement once they realize you are represented by an experienced injury attorney. If the insurance company is unwilling to offer a settlement amount that fairly compensates you for the injuries and damages you suffered, we are fully prepared to take your case to trial. Our injury attorneys always strive to secure the best possible outcome in your case.
At the Doan Law Firm, we take new cases on a contingency fee basis. What this means is that you do not pay our firm anything upfront to secure our assistance. If we secure a settlement or trial verdict on your behalf, your attorney receives a pre-negotiated percentage of the money awarded to you. You pay nothing at all if we do not secure a successful outcome in your case. This payment arrangement ensures that anyone can receive assistance from an experienced attorney, without worrying about significant upfront expenses.
In most cases, you have two years from the date of your accident to file a personal injury claim in the state of Texas. However, you may benefit from seeking legal counsel as soon as possible after your accident. Securing legal representation quickly allows your attorney to begin their investigation while evidence and your recollections of the event are still fresh.
It’s always a good idea to speak with a personal injury attorney if you’ve been harmed due to someone else’s negligence. Your initial consultation with a lawyer at the Doan Law Firm is free, and we can discuss the specifics of your case and whether or not you would benefit from legal representation. We will always be honest in our assessment of your case and what assistance we are able to provide, if any.
