Auto Accidents

Experienced Dallas / North Texas Auto Accident Attorney / Car Wreck Lawyer
Serving Dallas County, Denton County and Collins County

When you suffer a serious injury in an auto accident or car wreak, who is on your side? Insurance companies are in the business of making money. The Law Office of Ward Maedgen, an experienced Dallas personal injury attorney, will make sure you get every penny that you deserve for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, along with other expenses arising from your auto accident.

Our Dallas auto / car injury attorneys handle many different types of auto accidents, of which include:

Car crashes  |  Motorcycle wrecks  |  Trucking, semi, tractor trailer collisions  |  Insurance coverage issues
Asleep at the Wheel  |  Drunk Driving  |  High-Speed Collisions  |  Rear-End Collisions  |  Reckless Driving and Road Rage  |

Car accidents and truck accidents caused by negligent drivers and defective or malfunctioning auto parts on roads located in and around Dallas and the North Texas areas are one of the leading causes of death and serious injuries such as head and brain injury, spine injury, loss of limb, loss of senses, and other catastrophic injuries.

Generally, people who operate automobiles must exercise "reasonable care under the circumstances." A failure to use reasonable care is considered negligence. A person who negligently operates a vehicle may be required to pay for harm to a person or property, caused by his or her negligence. If you have been involved in a car accident or negligent car wreak, do not hesitate to seek legal counsel from a Dallas personal injury attorney experienced in auto accidents / car wreck cases in order to best protect your interests. Know your Rights!

Many people panic when they are in an auto accident. They worry how it will affect their insurance rates and other matters. Often,  people will try to handle settlements without a lawyer. Insurance company employees will seem nice, and try to convince you your case is a simple matter. You will never get a fair offer when working with an insurance company individually. Only an experienced, skilled personal injury attorney can maximize the value of your case.

Uninsured or Underinsured Motorists

Many drivers ignore motor vehicle insurance requirements, cannot afford to purchase insurance, or they carry insufficient insurance. Uninsured motorist coverage is a form of insurance that pays compensation for bodily injury that results from a car accident with a driver who is legally responsible for the injuries, but has no liability coverage. Underinsured motorist coverage pays compensation for bodily injury that results from an auto accident with a driver who has liability insurance with limits that are lower than the injured party's underinsured motorist coverage limits. If you have been involved in an auto accident with an uninsured or underinsured driver, it is very important that you contact an attorney at an experienced personal injury law firm immediately so you do not waive valuable legal rights.

Can I Afford a Personal Injury Attorney?

Some people choose not to pursue negligent drivers, manufacturers, or store owners because they mistakenly believe they can’t afford hiring a lawyer. At the law firm of Ward Maedgen, our personal injury attorneys and auto accident lawyers recover their fees as a percentage of any settlement awarded our clients. In other words, if we fail to win your case, you don’t owe us any fees.

And, unlike other firms, our contingency fee remains fixed regardless of whether or not your case heads to trial. So, if it’s necessary to take an insurance agency or truck company to trial in order to get a fair settlement, you won’t be saddled with more costs as a result. At the Law Office of Ward Maedgen, our contingency fee doesn’t fluctuate – it remains the same for the duration of our handling of your case.

Truck accidents are a common concern, with over two million more registered trucks in the United States alone than there were a decade ago. With a higher number of trucks on the road, the risk of an accident becomes more likely regardless of government-enforced laws and trucking companies working to make trucking safer and to reduce the risk of accidents. Increased safety procedure training and awareness for truckers are not enough to eliminate truck accidents altogether. Long hours, fatigue, tight deadlines, difficulty seeing blind spots, misjudging vehicle size and space, mechanical failure and defective components and overloading a truck are all common reasons why a truck accident wreck may occur.

Truck Accidents / 18 Wheeler Truck

Truck accidents are a common concern, with over two million more registered trucks in the United States alone than there were a decade ago. With a higher number of trucks on the road, the risk of an accident becomes more likely regardless of government-enforced laws and trucking companies working to make trucking safer and to reduce the risk of truck accidents. Even with more safety procedure training and awareness for truckers is still not enough to eliminate truck accidents altogether. Long hours, fatigue, tight deadlines, difficulty seeing blind spots, misjudging vehicle size and space, defective components and overloading a truck are all common reasons why a truck accident may occur..

Truck accidents can be caused in the same way as many car accidents due to reckless driving, speeding or mechanical failures; but when the vehicle involved in an accident is a truck, there are other factors that can compound the problems and serious nature of the accident. Truck accidents may occur as a result of a collision through no fault of your own. Sometimes mechanical failure and faulty servicing is to blame.

   wages and compensation for your pain
-- Submit the insurance claim to the insurance company
-- Assess the insurance company’s offer and advise you about your options
-- Give you the information you need to make an informed decision about accepting the offer, negotiating further
   or going to trial.
