Recoverable Damages for a Highway Accident Victim in Dallas
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) notes that motor vehicle accidents cost Americans as much as $340 billion in 2019. In Texas, accident-related deaths alone cost nearly $5 billion per year, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Our Dallas highway accident attorneys know that, on an individual level, car accidents in Dallas can also be costly. Your recoverable damages may include:
- Medical expenses: Even if you do not have apparent injuries after a highway accident, we encourage you to seek medical care. Injury symptoms can emerge well after an accident, and you must protect yourself. We will seek compensation to cover all of your accident-related medical care.
- Vehicle-related expenses: If your vehicle needs repairs or replacement, your Dallas highway accident attorney from Domingo Garcia will demand that liable parties cover the cost, including repairs for a vehicle’s exterior and interior components.
- Pain and suffering: Victims of motor vehicle accidents may suffer emotional and psychological distress, physical pain, and other non-physical injuries. In some cases, highway accident victims develop post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, anxiety, and other conditions. We seek compensation for these problems, collectively known as “pain and suffering.”
- Psychological treatment: If your pain and suffering require treatment, we will seek money to cover the cost. Medication, counseling, and various therapies may be among the treatments you require.
- Professional damages: We have seen highway accident victims in Dallas lose income and earning power, miss performance bonuses, forfeit benefits, and suffer other professional damages. As accident-related injuries become more serious, professional damages may become more costly.
- Other accident-related expenses: If you require temporary transportation, have to replace damaged property, or suffer any other accident-related damages, the Domingo Garcia team will include those damages in your case.
Our attorneys know that each new client comes with unique damages. However, we are familiar with the damages that highway accidents often cause. Your Dallas highway accident lawyer from Domingo Garcia will create a complete account of your damages and fight for the money you deserve.
Recoverable Damages in Dallas Wrongful Death Cases
Thousands of motor vehicle accident victims pass away in Texas each year, as the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) explains. Our attorneys are heartbroken whenever we encounter a wrongful death case, and we extend our condolences if your loved one passed away because of a Dallas highway accident.
However, if you want to seek justice for your loved one’s passing, you have come to the right firm. The attorneys at Domingo Garcia will demand that liable parties cover:
- The entire cost of your loved one’s funeral and burial
- Your pain and suffering (including all necessary counseling, medications, and other treatment)
- The decedent’s pain and suffering

- Loss of the decedent’s income, investing services, work benefits, and other forms of financial support
When vehicles travel at high speeds on highways, the outcome of a collision is often tragic. Domingo Garcia will do everything possible to get justice for your loss.

We Know the Dallas Highways Where Accidents Often Occur
As a major American city and transportation hub, many interstates, freeways, highways, and other high-capacity roadways run through Dallas. Some of these highways include:
- Highway 67
- Highway 175
- Highway 80
- Texas State Highway 114
Whether your accident occurred on a highway, interstate, or any other type of roadway in Dallas, our vehicle accident lawyers at Domingo Garcia can assist. We are familiar with Dallas’ complex road network, allowing us to respond promptly to accidents.
Many Highway Accidents in Dallas Result from Negligence
As a personal injury law firm, we clearly understand why highway accidents happen. Many times, negligence is the primary cause of those accidents.
Negligence happens whenever individuals or institutions fail to act reasonably. Unreasonable behavior puts others at risk of harm and often leads to accidents on Dallas highways.
Examples of negligence that may cause a highway accident are:
- By motorists: Motorists often cause highway accidents by speeding, driving while distracted or intoxicated, tailgating, ignoring traffic signals, and changing lanes abruptly.
- By vehicle manufacturers: Manufacturers who make defective vehicles or components cause accidents. Tragically, vehicle components may fail at high speeds on highways. When this happens, manufacturers are liable to victims of highway accidents.
- By municipalities: Municipalities, including Dallas, must ensure safe driving conditions. Potholes, uneven roads, defective traffic lights, downed traffic signs, and work crews in dangerous positions may all cause accidents. A municipality may be liable for these hazards.
It is not always obvious who is liable for a Dallas highway accident. The attorneys at Domingo Garcia will establish, beyond a doubt, who is liable for your damages.
