McAllen Personal Injury FAQ
What should I do after a car accident in McAllen, Texas?
Call 911 and request a police report — Hidalgo County officers will document the scene and any citations issued. Seek medical care at Doctors Hospital at Renaissance (DHR) or a nearby urgent care even if you feel fine. Photograph the damage, road conditions, and any skid marks on the expressway or feeder roads. Exchange insurance information but do not admit fault. Contact Chris Sanchez before giving any recorded statement to the other driver’s insurer.
Where are car accidents most common in McAllen?
The highest-crash corridors in McAllen are Expressway 83 (US-83 Business), 10th Street / McColl Road, Nolana Avenue, Trenton Road, and Military Highway (US-281). Intersections at 23rd Street and Ware Road, Bicentennial Boulevard, and the Loop 115 on/off ramps see repeated serious crashes. 18-wheeler accidents are common near the Pharr International Bridge approach roads due to commercial truck traffic from Mexico.
How long do I have to file a personal injury lawsuit in Hidalgo County?
Texas law gives you two years from the date of your injury to file a personal injury lawsuit under Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code § 16.003. If you miss this deadline, Hidalgo County district courts will dismiss your case regardless of how strong your claim is. If the at-fault party is a government entity (City of McAllen, Hidalgo County, TXDOT), you must also file a formal notice of claim within six months of the injury.
What courts handle personal injury cases in McAllen?
Personal injury lawsuits in McAllen are filed in Hidalgo County District Courts, which are located at the Hidalgo County Courthouse in Edinburg, Texas — the county seat. Key civil courts include the 92nd, 93rd, 206th, 332nd, and 370th District Courts. Smaller claims may be filed in Hidalgo County Court at Law. Chris Sanchez litigates regularly in all Hidalgo County venues.
Does Chris Sanchez handle cases in Spanish?
Sí. The Law Office of Chris Sanchez is fully bilingual. Chris and his staff speak Spanish fluently and can handle your entire case in Spanish from the initial consultation through trial. In the Rio Grande Valley, where more than 90% of residents are Hispanic or Latino, we understand that many clients are more comfortable discussing legal matters in Spanish.

What if the at-fault driver was uninsured in Texas?
Texas has a significant uninsured motorist problem — estimates suggest 20% or more of drivers on RGV roads carry no insurance. If you are hit by an uninsured driver, your own uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage may compensate you for medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. If you have no UM coverage, Chris Sanchez investigates all other potential defendants — employers, property owners, government entities — to find a path to full recovery.
