Local insight

Multi-vehicle and 18-wheeler crashes on I-35E through DeSoto

I-35E: reconstruct every impact

  • I-35E is DeSoto's busiest road, and it carries both commuters and heavy trucks headed to and from the logistics area south of I-20.
  • The city has seen serious multi-vehicle and 18-wheeler crashes on this stretch.
  • When several vehicles are involved, the hard questions are who caused each impact and how the responsibility is divided.

How responsibility and evidence fit together

  • Texas assigns each party a percentage of responsibility.
  • Each defendant usually pays only its own share.
  • But a defendant found more than 50% responsible can be held liable for all of the injured person's recoverable damages, which can matter when other drivers carry only minimum coverage.
  • A truck's event data, the carrier's driving logs and dash-camera video can show the order of impacts.

Trial ready

Prepared for a Dallas County courtroom

Prove each impact and injury

  • DeSoto cases may be filed in Dallas County.
  • Nolan builds each one so it can be tried there: who caused each impact in a chain-reaction crash, what each insurer owes, and how the injuries will affect you for years.
  • The proper court depends on the incident location, defendants and applicable venue rules.

Prepare for trucking insurers

  • Multi-vehicle and 18-wheeler cases on I-35E are exactly the cases insurers try to settle cheaply and quickly.
  • Preparation for trial is what stops that.

5 reasons to choose Nolan Ryan

Reconstruct more than one impact

A chain reaction crash can involve several drivers and different impacts. Nolan reviews the sequence and evidence rather than assuming one collision explains every injury.

Identify each driver and carrier

Nolan looks at the owners, drivers and carriers involved in a DeSoto crash and identifies their insurers before treating one policy as the entire claim.

Seek the truck data

Truck data and dash camera footage may help explain the collision sequence. Nolan requests relevant records alongside the police report and other available evidence.

Connect the injuries to the record

Nolan reviews how the impacts and documented injuries fit together, considering the medical evidence rather than relying only on the vehicle positions after the crash.

Keep your questions with the lawyer

Nolan works cases personally, reviewing the investigation and insurance issues with you so the claim is not reduced to a series of disconnected insurer conversations.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

How common are crashes in DeSoto?

TxDOT's 2024 crash data shows 447 crashes in DeSoto, including 1 fatal crash and 16 suspected serious injuries. I-35E is the city's busiest road and has seen serious multi-vehicle and 18-wheeler crashes.

Which court would hear my DeSoto injury case?

DeSoto is in Dallas County, so a case may be filed in the Dallas County district courts or county courts at law in the George L. Allen Sr. Courts Building, 600 Commerce Street, Dallas. The proper court depends on the incident location, defendants and applicable venue rules.

How do I get my DeSoto police crash report?

DeSoto Police Department reports cost $6 and are sold online through CrashDocs (allow at least 48 hours after the crash). For older reports, call Records at 469-658-3021. The police department is at 714 E. Belt Line Road.

You can also buy the Texas Peace Officer's Crash Report (CR-3) online through TxDOT's CRIS system for $6, or $8 for a certified copy.

Which trauma centers treat DeSoto crash victims?

Regional trauma centers include Dallas Level I centers such as Methodist Dallas Medical Center, Parkland Memorial Hospital or Baylor University Medical Center. Methodist Southwest Medical Center is a nearby Level III center.

I was a passenger in a DeSoto crash. Can I get the report?

Yes. Passengers are people involved in the crash, so they can buy the full report, as can their representatives and insurers. A passenger can usually claim against the at-fault driver, and sometimes against both drivers, since passengers rarely share any of the fault.

Are crashes near the I-20 and US-67 connections a concern for DeSoto drivers?

DeSoto sits close to both I-20 and US-67, and drivers moving between them and I-35E deal with merging traffic and trucks. Crashes at merges often turn on lane position and speed, so record where you were and where the other vehicle came from.

Several drivers were involved in my DeSoto crash. Can I claim against all of them?

You can generally bring claims against each party whose negligence contributed. A jury then assigns each a percentage. Any defendant above 50% can be held liable for all of your recoverable damages; the others pay their own shares.

How much insurance must a trucking company carry?

Federal law generally requires interstate for-hire carriers hauling nonhazardous property in vehicles rated 10,001 pounds or more to carry at least $750,000 in public liability coverage. Carriers of oil and certain hazardous materials need $1 million, and some other hazardous materials require $5 million.

How long do I have to file after a DeSoto crash?

Generally two years from the date of the injury. Truck evidence, such as electronic logs and dash-camera footage, can be lost much sooner, so it is best to have a preservation letter sent within days.

What if my DeSoto crash killed a family member?

The surviving spouse, children and parents may bring a wrongful death claim, generally within two years of the death. The person's own claim for their injuries before death also passes to the estate.

Does my own policy help after a DeSoto crash?

It may. Personal injury protection provides at least $2,500 in coverage per person for medical bills and lost income unless rejected in writing by a named insured; actual payment depends on covered losses and policy terms.

Underinsured motorist coverage can help when the at-fault driver's limits are too low.
