A crash in McKinney can leave you with a case number, a damaged car, and an insurance company asking for information you do not have yet. J. Alexander Law Firm can help injured drivers and passengers turn the report, medical care, vehicle damage, coverage information, and evidence into a claim that can move forward.

Then you get home and realize you still do not know what the report says, whether the car is repairable, who will call first, or why your neck and back feel worse than they did at the scene.
A crash report can identify the drivers, vehicles, witnesses, officer observations, roadway location, contributing factors, and initial narrative. It may not contain every witness, video source, vehicle record, medical detail, or insurance policy that matters to the claim.
The firm’s own pull of TxDOT CRIS records counted 7,765 reportable crashes in McKinney from 2021 through 2025, and those reports listed 21,119 people. The most common injury entry was not a visible injury: officers coded 2,263 people as C, possible injury, the code for pain or another injury that is reported but not visible at the scene. That was about half of the 4,511 injury entries.
Need help understanding the report? Each CR-3 code, including the injury letters, is spelled out in the Texas Crash Report Decoder.
Method: the firm queried TxDOT’s Crash Records Information System on September 30, 2026 for reportable crashes dated 2021 through 2025 whose report lists McKinney as the city. Each person’s injury code is the officer’s entry on the report (fatal is K, suspected serious A, suspected minor B, possible C, not injured N), so the 21,119 people and the 2,263 possible injury entries count people, not crashes. A serious crash has at least one K or A entry. These figures describe reported crashes, not causes.
The report is checked against photos, vehicle damage, the roadway layout, witness information, available video, and what each driver said.
The claim should show when symptoms began, what treatment was needed, how recovery progressed, and what the injury changed in everyday life.
Repair, total loss, and rental issues matter, but they run separately from the injury claim. We can help with vehicle questions along the way, and no percentage of the repair or rental payments goes to the firm.
Coverage may reach past the at fault driver’s policy to the vehicle’s owner, an employer or commercial carrier, a household policy, or your own UM/UIM coverage.
