Car Accidents in Texas
Texas continues to report a large number of motor vehicle crashes every year, with highways like the one in Chandler seeing regular traffic and increased risk. In 2023, more than 18,800 people sustained serious injuries in vehicle accidents across the state. These collisions often lead to long-term consequences for victims and their families.
When crashes happen on busy roadways, the results can be life-altering. Below are a few things that victims may face in the days and weeks following an accident:
- Missed Time at Work: Many victims are unable to return to their jobs right away, especially if their injuries require hospitalization or extended rehabilitation. Lost income can quickly create financial pressure, particularly when medical bills begin to arrive. This burden is one of the key factors attorneys focus on when building an injury claim.
- Transportation Challenges: A wrecked vehicle can leave you without reliable transportation. This adds to the stress of getting to doctor’s appointments or managing daily responsibilities. Some victims may need to rent a car or rely on others, which can be costly and inconvenient.
- Insurance Headaches: Dealing with insurance companies after a crash can be frustrating and time-consuming. Adjusters may undervalue your claim or delay payments. Having legal support early on can help level the playing field and ensure your rights are protected.
- Ongoing Pain Management: Injuries like back problems, whiplash, and joint damage often require follow-up care and physical therapy. Chronic pain can affect your quality of life and may even impact your ability to perform basic tasks or enjoy daily routines.
- Out-of-Pocket Expenses: Even with insurance, crash victims often face unexpected bills—from deductibles and prescriptions to mobility aids and childcare. Keeping detailed records of these costs is essential to making sure they’re covered in a claim.
