Get a Car Accident Lawyer Who Will Stand Up For You

We know it’s not just your case; it’s your life

There is no such thing as a simple or “cut-and-dry" car accident.

It may seem obvious the other driver is at fault — maybe they even admitted fault to you and the police. The stated goal of an insurance policy is to make the victim “whole,” yet you still cannot count on the insurance companies to give you a fair payout.

Initial settlement offers rarely cover an accident victim’s medical and other losses. Victims are not always made “whole.” They are often left with a hole in their lives.

The car accident attorneys at Hoover Rogers Law, LLP take a stand and fight to get accident victims in the larger Wichita Falls and Lawton region maximum compensation.

We would rather spend more time working on your case and take the insurance company to court rather than accept less money than you deserve.

While you heal, we fight

After a serious traffic accident, your focus should be on healing and being with your family, not going toe-to-toe with the insurance company over medical bills.

Hoover Rogers Law can handle the insurance company. Our legal team will investigate your car crash, create a game plan optimized for the best outcome, look the insurance company in the eye and demand all the money you deserve.

Talk To The Insurance Company. We can respond to insurance company questions about the accident for you.
Answer Your Questions. It’s your case. We want you to understand what is happening throughout the legal process. Our law firm is responsive to client requests.

Settle Your Claim. Negotiate aggressively with insurance companies and at-fault parties to get you maximum compensation.
Prepare For Trial. If the insurance company won’t budge from a too-small settlement offer, we are more than happy to file a civil lawsuit that publicly exposes the insurance company’s unjust treatment of injured people and seeks the money you deserve.

Here's what to do after a car accident

When you’re injured, out of work, and still in pain, accepting a quick settlement from an adjuster might seem like a good idea after an accident.

It is not.

Once you’ve agreed to a settlement, that’s it. In most circumstances, it’s impossible to get more money out of an insurance company after you’ve taken their offer — even if they shortchanged you.

You have a legal right to negotiate with the insurance companies and their lawyers to get maximum compensation for your losses and injuries.

To get the most for your injuries, you will need to have a strong claim. Every state has its own laws that govern traffic accidents, but there are some general steps that any accident victim may take to help their case:

Stay at the scene. In general, any accident that causes injury, death, or property damage over $1,000 must be reported to law enforcement as well as your insurance company.
Call 911. If help has not arrived yet, call 911 and report the accident.
Make a timeline. As soon as you are able, write down details of the crash.
Take photos and videos.
Identify witnesses.
Get medical attention. If there is an emergency medical professional at the accident, allow them to examine you. Even if you feel fine, there may be internal damage. Some crash injuries do not become apparent to victims until days or weeks later.
See a doctor. Having an EMT check you out is a good first step, but you need to see a doctor who understands car accident injuries and has the time to give you a thorough exam.
Do not discuss your accident with anyone.
Get a copy of your Texas Crash Report or Oklahoma Collision Report.
Call Hoover Rogers Law.

You have a legal right to negotiate with the insurance companies and their lawyers to get maximum compensation for your losses and injuries. However, accident claims are a unique beast. Understanding insurance policy fine print and negotiating with hardened adjusters is a skill that takes time to develop. That’s why so many people — including lawyers who practice other areas of the law — hire car accident attorneys to handle their claims.

Wichita Falls and Lawton highways and hotspots

Some roadways are more likely to see a traffic accident than others. These are called “crash hotspots.”

Most hotspots are at intersections or along high-speed, curved roads. Halfway between Dallas and Oklahoma City, Wichita Falls often ranks as one of the most dangerous cities in Texas for drivers.

There are many major highways that intersect with Wichita Falls and Lawton area, including:

I-44
US-287
US-277
TX-325
TX-240
TX-79

Among the major routes on the other side of the Red River are US-62 and OK-7.

The National Highway Safety Administration maps car accidents across the country and illuminates dangerous intersections and other crash hotspots.

In our neck of the greater Texoma region, communities with comparatively higher risk for car accidents include Bowie, Burkburnett, Duncan, Henrietta, and Marlow.

In Wichita Falls, Texas, locations where bad car accidents are more likely to occur include:

Kell Boulevard and McNeil Avenue by the US-82 / US-277 ramps

Common car accident injuries

Car accidents come in many forms and result in a range of injuries.

The point of impact and cause of each accident affects injury risk. For example, people in vehicles that are hit from behind are more likely to suffer from whiplash. In a head-on collision, there is a high potential for traumatic brain injuries (TBIs).

People who have been in car accidents frequently have to address issues like:

Whiplash
Head injuries (TBIs)
Internal bleeding
Broken bones
Cracked ribs
Spinal cord injuries
Persistent pain in the back, neck, chest, and/or side

Crash victims often must turn to medical professionals that specialize in treating this type of bodily harm.

Determining fault in a Texas or Oklahoma car accident

In Texas and Oklahoma, injured car accident victims get reduced recoveries if they are found to be at least somewhat responsible for the crash.

This is because both states use the modified comparative fault rule with a 51 percent bar.

The modified comparative fault liability standard splits responsibility among the people and entities involved in a crash. Even if you are seriously injured, you could still be held partially liable for the accident.

Fault is often influenced by the police report and determined during negotiations or in court. The 51 percent bar rule means that if you are 51 percent or more at fault in an accident, you cannot file a claim.

If you are 50 percent or less at fault and you file a claim, your final award will be reduced by whatever amount of fault the insurance companies can pin on you.

So, for example, if your final compensation award is $100,000 and you are found to be 10 percent at-fault, your final payout would be $90,000. (This example is for demonstration purposes only. There are many factors that can affect the size of your settlement, not just comparative negligence.

Insurance adjusters and attorneys will often attempt to assign more blame to accident victims than what they really deserve. The more blame an insurance company can put on you, the less money they must pay you.

Your lawyer can confront the insurance company and challenge their fault determination.
