How we match your Irving car accident case

When you submit a Irving car accident matter, we route it through a national network of independent partner firms and put it in front of the one that fits best — based on the kind of case it is, what it is likely to involve, where it has to be handled, and who has capacity to take it on now.

Case type

A car accident matter needs someone who handles car accident work day to day, not a generalist. Practice area is the first filter.

Size and complexity

Some firms are built for catastrophic injury and multi-party litigation; others resolve straightforward claims quickly. We weigh what your matter is likely to involve against how each firm actually works.

Jurisdiction and licensing

Your matter is decided under Texas law, so it goes to an attorney licensed in Texas who regularly appears where your case would be heard.

Capacity and fit

Availability, conflicts of interest and language all matter. If the best-fit firm cannot take your case, we route it to the next one that can — or tell you plainly when no one in the network is the right answer.

Every partner reviews your case for free. Injury and workers’ compensation matters are handled on contingency — no fee unless you win. Other matters are quoted upfront, before you commit to anything.

Car accident lawsuits from Irving are filed in Dallas County courts in downtown Dallas, about thirteen miles from the city. Most claims first go through insurance negotiation. An attorney matched through DearLegal can handle that process and file suit if the insurer will not pay fairly.

Texas lets you recover only if you were not more than half at fault, and your award is reduced by your share. That rule makes the insurer’s fault argument very consequential. An attorney gathers dashcam, witness, and police evidence early to keep your percentage accurate.

Somewhat. Rideshare companies carry layered insurance that depends on whether the driver was waiting, en route, or carrying a passenger at the time. Sorting out which policy applies can be confusing. An attorney experienced with these claims in Dallas County can identify every available coverage.

Two years from the date of the crash for personal injury and property damage under Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code § 16.003. Claims against governmental units under the Texas Tort Claims Act (Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code § 101.101) require notice within 6 months.

You pursue the at-fault driver and their liability insurer directly. Texas does not require no-fault PIP, though PIP is offered as an option. If you contributed to the crash, your recovery is reduced by your percentage of fault, and if you’re more than 50% at fault, you recover nothing under Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code § 33.001.
