These are the types of cases that often involve major injuries, multiple parties, and insurance coverage disputes.
The injuries in serious McAllen accident cases are often life-changing. Some may require emergency treatment, surgery, rehabilitation, or long-term care, while others leave permanent effects that continue for years.
Common injuries in these cases include:
If you were injured because of someone else’s negligence, call the Ezequiel Reyna Law Office at (956) 968-9556 to speak with our dedicated personal injury attorneys.
Texas law sets important rules that can affect a personal injury claim. In most cases, Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code section 16.003 gives injured people two years to file suit, although the exact deadline can depend on the type of claim and when the injury occurred.
Texas also follows proportionate responsibility, sometimes called modified comparative fault. That means your compensation can be reduced if you share some responsibility for the accident, and you generally cannot recover if your share of fault is greater than 50%.
To prove a negligence claim, the injured person usually must show that the other party owed a duty of care, breached that duty, and caused damages as a result. In serious cases, the question often comes down to whether the driver, company, property owner, or other responsible party failed to act with reasonable care under the circumstances.
If that happened, you may have the right to pursue a personal injury claim in Texas.
The first hours after an accident can matter a great deal. Some injuries do not show their full impact right away, and early decisions can affect both your health and your claim.
After a serious accident, you should:
Insurance companies often move quickly after a crash, and they may ask for recorded statements or push settlement paperwork before the full extent of your injuries is known. Protecting your claim early can make a major difference later.
McAllen has several busy roadways and intersections where serious accidents can happen, especially where commuter traffic, commercial vehicles, and constant turning movements all come together. High speeds, heavy traffic, changing lanes, and limited visibility can all make certain areas more dangerous for drivers, pedestrians, and motorcyclists.
Some of the more common crash locations include:
These locations matter because the design of the roadway, traffic volume, and sightlines can all play a role in how a crash happened and who may be responsible. In a serious injury case, the exact location of the accident can help support the investigation and explain what went wrong. Whether the collision happened on a major highway, at a crowded intersection, or near a high-traffic retail area, those details can be important when building a claim.
A personal injury claim may provide compensation for both financial losses and the personal impact of the injury. Depending on the facts of the case, recovery may include medical bills, lost income, reduced earning capacity, property damage, pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of enjoyment of life, permanent impairment, and out-of-pocket expenses.
In some cases, punitive damages may also be available under Texas law, but those damages are limited and do not apply in every case.
No two personal injury cases are exactly alike, and the value of a claim depends on the facts of the accident and the severity of the injuries. Serious cases often involve more than immediate medical bills. Future treatment, time missed from work, reduced earning ability, permanent impairment, and the overall effect on daily life can all influence the value of a claim.
Other factors may include who was at fault, how clearly liability can be proven, whether surgery or long-term care is needed, the amount of available insurance coverage, and how well the injury is documented. In general, the more serious and well-supported the case is, the more likely it is to justify a higher recovery.
Insurance companies rarely have your best interests in mind. Their goal is often to settle quickly and pay as little as possible, even when a serious injury deserves much more.
Before giving a recorded statement, signing any release, or accepting a settlement offer, it is important to understand the full value of your case. At Ezequiel Reyna Law Office, we can handle the insurance company for you so you can focus on healing while we focus on protecting your claim.
Clients come to Ezequiel Reyna Law Office when the accident is serious and the injuries are severe. They want a legal team that understands how to build strong injury claims and how to push back when insurance companies try to undervalue them.

If you were seriously injured in McAllen, contact the Ezequiel Reyna Law Office at (956) 968-9556 to discuss your case.
You may have a case if someone else’s negligence caused your injuries and you suffered damages because of it. The best way to know for sure is to have the facts reviewed by a lawyer who handles serious injury claims.
Most personal injury cases are handled on a contingency fee basis, which means you do not pay attorney’s fees upfront. The fee is paid from a recovery if compensation is obtained.
In many Texas personal injury cases, the deadline is two years from the date the claim accrues. Because timing matters, it is smart to speak with a lawyer as soon as possible after an accident.
Compensation may include medical bills, lost wages, reduced earning capacity, pain and suffering, emotional distress, property damage, and other losses tied to the accident. In some cases, punitive damages may also be available, depending on the facts and Texas law.
You may still have a claim if you were partly at fault, but your recovery can be reduced by your percentage of responsibility. If you are more than 50%at fault, Texas law generally bars recovery.
Not always. Many personal injury cases settle before trial, but some cases do need to be filed in court or litigated if the insurance company refuses to make a fair offer.
