History of Crowley, Texas

Crowley is a rising city in the southwestern area of DFW, primarily located within Tarrant County, just 13 miles south of the center of Fort Worth, Texas. The area was established in the mid-1800s when the Gulf, Colorado, and Santa Fe Railway began building pens and laying tracks in what is now the current city.

Later, the first rail station was constructed in 1885, which helped ensure the town’s establishment of Crowley as we know it today. True to its history of being a railroad hub, the community was eventually named after the railroad’s “master of transportation”, S.H. Crowley.

When to Hire a Personal Injury Lawyer

At Patterson Law Group we understand that the minutes, days, or weeks after a personal injury accident can be painful, confusing, and highly frustrating – particularly if you have never experienced anything like it before.

We also know that trying to handle the process of filing an insurance claim while wading through scheduling of doctor’s appointments or taking care of loved ones who are injured is no small matter, and it’s nothing that we take lightly.

Contacting a personal injury lawyer immediately after your accident can help take the burden off your shoulders so you can focus solely on you or your loved one’s recovery. Waiting too long to seek treatment or contact a lawyer after your accident can only make it harder to prove your case, especially if you wait until your statute of limitations.

The State of Limitations for a personal injury accident in Texas means that you have two years from the date of your personal injury accident to file a claim and take legal action against the at-fault party’s insurance carrier.

If you choose to file a claim against your own carrier, you have four years from the date of your accident to take legal action. However, time is of the essence when it comes to ensuring you can get the treatment you need to prevent further complications down the road. This gives the insurance adjuster less leeway when questioning the validity of your injuries.

Our lawyers and staff are sensitive to your matter. We will always do our part to help you understand everything that is happening with your case while assisting you with finding the best care possible based on your individual needs. If you believe you have suffered an injury due to the negligence of someone else and could be entitled to compensation, contact us today at (817) 784-2000.

How Lawyers Work on Proving Your Case

Our lawyers know and understand Texas laws and are fully equipped to investigate your case in full detail.

From day one we will obtain all relevant information to your case such as police reports, 911 audio, or dashcam footage.

We will also collect photographs of the damage to your vehicle, your bodily injuries, and, if necessary, the accident scene. If there were witnesses to your personal injury accident, contacting and obtaining their statement can help prove your case.

All these things factor into proving that you are the victim at the hands of someone else’s negligence, and we will go to bat for you with the at-fault’s insurance carrier to prove it.
