In a Car Accident in Van Alstyne, Texas? Here’s What to Do

A car accident, no matter how minor, can turn your day upside down. In a tight-knit community like Van Alstyne, where neighbors look out for each other, it’s important to know that help is never far away. David K. Wilson & Associates has been serving Grayson County, including Van Alstyne, for over 40 years. David isn’t just an attorney here; he’s part of the fabric of the community. He knows the roads, he knows the people, and most importantly, he knows how to fight for what’s right. 

 

Step 1: Prioritize Safety and Call for Help 

If anyone is injured, call 911 immediately. Even in a low-speed rear-end collision, injuries like whiplash or concussions can happen. Van Alstyne emergency services are quick to respond, and your safety is our top priority. 

 

Step 2: File a Police Report 

Always contact law enforcement to report the car accident, no matter how minor it may seem. A police report is a critical piece of evidence if you need to file a personal injury claim or seek property damage compensation. Officers from the Van Alstyne Police Department or the Grayson County Sheriff’s Office will document the scene and provide an official report. 

 

Step 3: Exchange Information and Gather Evidence 

If it’s safe, collect the other driver’s name, license plate number, insurance information, and take photos of the damage, street signs, and injuries. If there are any eyewitnesses, also obtain their contact details. All of this supports your auto accident claim later on. 

 

Step 4: Get Medical Attention 

Many car accident injuries don’t become apparent immediately. You may feel fine at first, but symptoms like pain, stiffness, or dizziness can develop hours or even days later. Don’t take chances. Visit a nearby clinic or emergency room, such as Baylor Scott & White in McKinney or Wilson N. Jones in Sherman. 

 

Step 5: Call David K. Wilson & Associates 

Before talking to the insurance company, speak with someone who’s on your side. Insurance adjusters are trained to protect their company’s bottom line, not yours. David K. Wilson has helped hundreds of clients in Van Alstyne and across Grayson County recover damages after car accidents, including: 

  • Rear-end collisions 
  • T-bone and intersection accidents 
  • Head-on crashes 
  • Distracted or drunk driving accidents 
  • 18-wheeler and commercial vehicle accidents 
  • Uninsured or underinsured motorist claims 

 

He knows how to deal with insurance companies, how to build a strong car accident injury case, and how to ensure you receive fair compensation for your medical bills, lost wages, car repairs, and pain and suffering.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What if the other driver was uninsured?

    Texas requires drivers to carry insurance, but uninsured motorist cases are common. Our team can help you explore options like your own insurance coverage or filing a lawsuit against the at-fault driver. 

  • What if I was partially at fault for the accident?

    Texas follows a modified comparative fault rule. If you’re less than 51% at fault, you can still recover damages, though your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault.

  • Should I get an attorney after a car accident?

    Yes, especially if you’ve been injured or face significant damage. Our team can help evaluate your case, deal with insurance companies, and ensure you’re not shortchanged. 

  • What if I didn’t feel injured at the scene but now I do?

    It’s common for injuries like whiplash or internal trauma to appear hours or days later, which is why our team recommends you seek medical attention right away, regardless of how you feel after an accident. If you didn't, seek medical attention as soon as you feel pain and inform your attorney. Delayed symptoms can still be included in your claim.
