San Antonio Car Accident Lawyers Serving all of Texas
After a car accident, your insurance company will reach out to you to get a statement. However, be careful – your insurer has its own interests in mind, not yours. It has a staff of claims adjusters and lawyers prepared to pin the fault on you so the company does not have to pay your damages.
Studies show that hiring a car accident lawyer to represent you can increase your monetary compensation. You can turn to our team at Mack Injury Attorneys, an award-winning law firm serving the people of San Antonio and all of Texas.

You can contact us today to arrange a free, no-risk, no-obligation initial consultation.
Unique Skills And Expertise
The importance of accurately estimating the value of your damages and proving them conclusively cannot be overstated. If you undervalue your claim, you will not receive the money you need to pay your medical bills and other expenses related to your injury. When hiring a law firm, you need to hire one where their team knows how to assess your damages, put an accurate numerical value to them and demonstrate them to the insurance company – or a court of law. We have extensive experience and an outstanding level of ability when it comes to proving our clients’ damages.
Effective Evidence Analysis
To do this, we analyze the evidence in excruciating detail. Gathering, preserving and assessing the evidence is a crucial aspect of building a strong claim to demonstrate the other party’s negligence. Our attorneys frequently collaborate with outside professionals such as doctors and physical therapists to determine the medical care you will need in the future. If your injuries limit your earning capacity, we can consult a vocational rehabilitation counselor to estimate the value of your loss of earning potential. When it comes to the crash site, we can hire forensic crash site analysts to determine which party caused the crash. What we do is get a thorough idea of what your injury will cost you in the long-term. Then, we put together the case to prove it.
Negotiation Skills
Insurance companies do not want to go to court. They want to make a low settlement offer and have you accept it right away. Fortunately, this is not our motor vehicle accident attorneys work. We are serious about filing a lawsuit and going to court if necessary. This gives us a great deal of leverage in negotiations. When the other party and the insurers know that we are preparing for a trial, they often scramble to make a fair settlement offer instead. If they do not, then we have a case all ready for a trial before a judge or jury.
We Handle The Paperwork
Without representation, much of your paperwork would fall on you to complete. For example:
- We gather evidence – Such as working with hospitals to collect medical records.
- We handle paperwork – Over 20 forms with certain insurers.
- We negotiate directly with insurance companies- We will fight for the compensation you deserve in compensation for your injuries.
- We offer court representation – Often we can settle a case before trial, but we are willing and capable of taking your case through trial and appeal.
With all of our work on your behalf, we work to maximize your compensation.

Frequently Asked Questions About Car Accidents
Who Is Liable For Your Car Accident?
Our first order of business is to determine whether someone else’s negligence caused your accident. Negligent parties should be held liable for the harm they cause, so we need to identify the cause of the crash. Some common causes of auto accidents include:
- Drunk driving
- Distracted driving
- Fatigued driving
- Dangerous lane changes
- Speeding
- Tailgating
- Other aggressive behaviors
- Not maintaining vehicle
- Defective vehicles
- Road hazards
Whether the negligent party is another driver or a large corporation, we have the resources to stand up for your rights.
What Causes Auto Accidents?
There are many ways a reckless or negligent driver can cause an accident. If a driver distracts themselves by using their cellphone, eating, adjusting their appearance, updating their GPS or radio, or trying to grab something just out of reach, they can cause catastrophic injuries in a car accident.
What Is A Compensation Claim Worth?
Every personal injury claim is worth a different amount of money. The goal of any claim is to maximize the compensation the plaintiff receives to reflect the current and future costs of their injuries. Fair compensation often includes lost income during recovery time, medical expenses, relocation or renovation of a home to accommodate a disability, and pain and suffering.
Is A Car Accident Lawyer Necessary?
In some situations, an insurance company may be quick to offer an accident victim a settlement for their injuries. While this may seem like a blessing, it is more likely that the offer is actually far less than the victim deserves for their injuries. A skilled attorney can negotiate for fair compensation in a personal injury claim while also settling the case in a swift and effective manner.
How Long Does It Take To Settle A Case?
Depending on certain factors of a case, the typical length of a personal injury claim can range from a few months to a few years. If negotiations for fair compensation go smoothly, your claim can resolve quickly. However, if the defendant is not cooperative in negotiations, litigation may be necessary and taking your case to court can considerably delay the time it takes to resolve things.
Legal Representation You Can Trust
Identifying the liable parties is only one step in the personal injury process. To exercise your rights under the law, you can file an insurance claim with the negligent party’s insurer or file a personal injury lawsuit. Lawsuits are more common in cases involving particularly severe and life-changing injuries.
Always remember that an insurance company is not on your side, and it will do whatever it can to limit your settlement. It has many tricks that it uses to convince claimants to accept inadequate offers, though we will not let that happen. We can help you in many ways to ensure that you receive the full compensation you deserve, including:
- Prepare a persuasive claim with evidence to support liability and damages
- Handle every communication with insurance adjusters
- Calculate the value of your claim to ensure that you request enough to cover your losses
- Review settlement offers and negotiate for more if an offer is too low
- File a personal injury claim in civil court if the insurance process is insufficient
We handle every single step of your case so that you can focus on getting back on your feet after your injuries.
