How We Prove Liability
Neck injury cases require connecting the mechanism of the accident to the specific cervical spine damage through medical imaging and expert testimony. Pre accident medical records may be subpoenaed to show the neck was healthy before the incident. Biomechanical experts can testify about how the forces in the accident were sufficient to cause the documented cervical injuries, countering insurance company arguments that the crash was too minor to cause real damage.
Texas Legal Framework
Texas law does not impose a minimum threshold of vehicle damage for a neck injury claim to be valid, and courts have upheld significant awards in low speed collision cases. Future medical expenses for neck injuries, including potential cervical fusion surgery and ongoing pain management, are recoverable under Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code. The eggshell plaintiff doctrine under Texas common law protects victims whose preexisting cervical conditions were worsened by the accident.
Rear end collisions are the most common type of car accident in Texas, and the injuries they cause are often more serious than people expect. From whiplash to herniated discs to traumatic brain injuries, the forces generated in a rear end crash can cause lasting damage even at low speeds.
Delaying medical treatment after a car accident can destroy your personal injury claim. Insurance companies will use any gap in treatment to argue that you were not seriously hurt. Getting prompt, consistent care protects both your health and your legal rights.
Insurance companies love to blame your injuries on pre-existing conditions. But Texas law is clear. You take the plaintiff as you find them. A defendant is fully responsible for aggravating a condition that already existed, and the insurance company cannot use your medical history to avoid paying for the harm their insured caused.
At Medina & Medina, we work on a contingency fee basis. This means you pay nothing upfront and no fees unless we win your case. Our fee is a percentage of your recovery.
In Texas, you generally have two years from the date of your injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. However, there are exceptions that may shorten or extend this deadline, so it’s important to consult with an attorney as soon as possible.
You may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, and in some cases, punitive damages. The amount depends on the specific circumstances of your case.
While you’re not required to have a lawyer, having experienced legal representation typically results in higher settlements. Insurance companies have teams of lawyers working for them, and you deserve someone advocating for your interests too.
Compensation depends on the severity of your injuries, medical expenses, lost wages, and impact on your life. Contact Medina & Medina for a free evaluation of your case.
Helpful evidence includes police reports, medical records, photos of the scene, witness statements, and insurance information. Our team will help you gather all necessary documentation.
