Car Accidents

Why use a Dallas car accident lawyer? At best, an auto wreck is extremely inconvenient, time consuming, even expensive. Unfortunately, many times collisions also result in injury, from minor to life-threatening, that effect your activity and finances on a daily basis. In some cases the injuries are fatal, leaving the family of the victim in a desperate situation.

You have rights as the victim of an accident. The Dallas car accident lawyers at Godsey-Martin, P.C. are the tough, experienced, and on your side in order to help you receive the best possible legal outcome, even with a relatively minor collision. Although car accident victims are permitted under Texas law to receive compensation for their injuries, insurance companies will unfortunately try to take advantage of unsuspecting victims and move to quickly settle your case. It’s important to have experience on your side; and Texas personal injury attorneys Justin Martin and David Godsey are ready to learn about your case and discuss your options.

Have you just been involved in a Ft. Worth or Dallas auto accident? There are a few important actions you should take.

●      First, it’s important to remember details of the crash, even the facts that may not seem important. Write down as much as you can remember now, even before you meet with a car accident attorney.

●      Next, it’s necessary to properly identify the type of accident which caused your injury and damaged your vehicle:

1. Single Car Accidents may involve a car rolling over, or striking a person or object. Many times single car crashes are due to defective or faulty mechanics.
2. Multi-Car Collisions, which usually start with just two cars, quickly develop into a number of cars.  Severe weather is oftentimes the culprit for this type of car accident.
3. Rear-End Crashes occur when one car hits another from behind. This type of car accident primarily results when the car in front slows or stops, and the driver of the car in back is not paying attention.  Whiplash, or neck strain, is the most common injury from rear-end collisions.
4. Head-On Collisions happen when two cars traveling from opposite directions crash into each other. Serious injuries to the driver and passengers almost always result.
5. Side Impact Crashes are common at intersections and occur when one car hits another car directly on its side. This type of car accident also results in a large number of serious injuries or deaths.
