Round Rock Car Accident Lawyers

Helping You Understand Your Options After a Wreck

After a crash, one of the first questions people have is: “Do I have a claim?” Another common question follows: “If I do, what should I do next?”

We guide you through both. Our Round Rock car accident attorneys can review the facts of your accident, your injuries, and the actions of the other party to help determine whether you can pursue compensation under Texas law. We explain your legal options clearly, walk you through the claims process, and help you decide the path forward.

If you do have a legally viable claim and we can accept your case, we can handle all parts of it, such as:

• Communicating with insurance companies
• Gathering medical documentation of your injuries
• Preserving important evidence
• Identifying all potentially liable parties
• Preparing and sending a demand letter
• Attempting to negotiate for fair compensation
• Litigating in court against the auto insurance company, if necessary

We know how stressful life becomes after a crash. Our goal is to remove that burden from your shoulders so you can focus on healing.

Damages You Can Seek in a Car Accident Claim

A car accident claim can help you recover financial compensation for the losses caused by the collision if it is successful.

The damages that might be available in your car accident claim include:

• Emergency medical care, hospitalization, and follow-up treatment
• Rehabilitation, medications, and long-term medical needs
• Lost wages and reduced ability to earn income
• Pain and suffering
• Emotional distress and psychological trauma
• Property damage, including vehicle repairs or replacement
• Loss of enjoyment of life
• Wrongful death damages for surviving family members

The more severe your injuries, the more important it becomes to calculate the full value of your losses. We often work with medical specialists, economic experts, and life-care planners to assess every form of harm the crash has caused and what costs that harm will incur, now and in the future.

Evidence That Can Strengthen Your Claim

In car accident cases, evidence is practically everything. Without it, insurance companies will often try to minimize your injuries, deny liability, or shift blame onto you. With strong evidence and us leading the way, you have the power to push back.

Helpful evidence in a car accident claim may include:

• Police crash reports
• Photos and video from the accident scene
• Witness statements
• Surveillance or dashcam footage
• Medical records and diagnostic imaging
• Black box or vehicle data (for certain commercial vehicles)
• Accident reconstruction results
• Records of lost income or job impact

At National Trial Law, we know how to find and preserve the evidence that makes a difference. We can coordinate with accident reconstruction experts, investigators, doctors, and other specialists to prepare a compelling claim that reflects the truth of what happened. Whether your crash occurred on I-35, Highway 79, Gattis School Road, or anywhere in Round Rock, we’re prepared to investigate quickly and thoroughly.

Texas Comparative Negligence & How Fault Affects a Car Accident Claim

Texas follows a modified comparative negligence rule, which means your compensation may be reduced if you’re found partly at fault for the crash. As long as you are not more than 50% responsible, you can still recover damages. If you are assigned 51% or more of the fault, though, the court will typically bar you from recovering compensation.

Insurance companies know this rule well and may try to push an unfair portion of blame onto you to reduce what they owe. That is yet another reason why having an experienced car accident attorney is highly recommended. We can fight to counter any tactics used by the insurance company.

FTCA Claims When a Federal Employee Causes a Crash

Some motor vehicle accidents involve government or federal employees driving their work vehicles, such as crashes involving:

• USPS mail trucks
• Federal law enforcement vehicles
• Military personnel driving government vehicles out of Camp Mabry
• VA or federal hospital employees on duty

When a federal employee causes a collision while performing their job duties, your case may fall under the Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA), which is a system with rules and deadlines very different from standard Texas car accident claims. At National Trial Law, we are nationally recognized for our experience handling FTCA cases. We’ve litigated federal car accident claims across the country, including major verdicts involving catastrophic injuries. If your Round Rock crash involves a federal vehicle or federal employee, we know the claims process, the exceptions, and how to navigate the administrative requirements to protect your rights.
