Allen Personal Injury Lawyer — 10 minutes from our office.
Allen sits squarely on US-75 — the artery that carries Allen's commuters into Dallas and back, hour after hour, every day. Most of the crashes we see in Allen happen on US-75 itself or on the Bethany / Stacy / Exchange Pkwy interchanges that feed it. Kent's office is 10 minutes north on the same highway. If you've been hurt in Allen, we're already nearby.

The US-75 problem — and what makes Allen cases distinct.
Allen is, more than anything, a US-75 city. The Central Expressway cuts the city north-south and shapes everything about how injury cases unfold here.
Interchange complexity. The Bethany Drive, Stacy Road, and Exchange Parkway interchanges are the most common crash locations in Allen. The auxiliary-lane design between these interchanges — where the right lane is shared between through traffic and exit/entry traffic — confuses drivers and produces high-speed merge collisions. Liability is rarely as obvious as the police report makes it look.
Commuter-driver demographics. A large share of Allen drivers are daily Dallas commuters, frequently fatigued by the time they head south at 7 AM and back north at 6 PM. Drowsy-driving rear-end crashes on US-75 are a recognizable pattern. So is distracted driving — the corridor's stop-and-go traffic creates constant phone temptation.
Premises and parking-lot cases. Allen's retail and entertainment footprint — Watters Creek at Montgomery Farm, Twin Creeks Marketplace, the Allen Premium Outlets, The Village at Allen — produces a steady volume of parking-lot incidents and premises-liability claims. These cases hinge on surveillance video that gets overwritten in 30 days or less. Speed matters.
Same court, same county. Allen sits in Collin County, so injury cases here go to the same Russell A. Steindam Courts in McKinney where we try our McKinney and most Plano cases. Familiar judges, familiar mediators, the same set of jury instincts we've been working with for years.

Allen injury cases — common questions
-
I was hit at the US-75 / Bethany or US-75 / Stacy interchange — does that change anything?
These two interchanges produce more rear-end and merge-lane collisions than any other points in Allen. Both are on a stretch of Central Expressway where the right-side lanes function effectively as long auxiliary lanes for entries and exits — drivers misjudge the merge constantly. We've handled cases at both interchanges and know how to pull the relevant TxDOT lane-history records.
-
What about Watters Creek / Twin Creeks Marketplace parking-lot crashes?
Premises and parking-lot incidents are a meaningful share of Allen's injury cases. Many shopping-center fender-benders look minor at the scene but produce delayed-onset soft-tissue injuries that show up days later. We strongly recommend ER evaluation the same day — and we collect parking-lot surveillance video before the property's standard 30-day overwrite cycle.
-
I'm an Allen ISD parent — what if my teen was in a crash?
Texas drivers under 18 are subject to graduated driver licensing rules, and crashes involving teen drivers often involve specific GDL violations (no passengers under 21, no late-night driving, no electronic device use) that affect liability. We handle teen-driver cases sensitively — the goal is to get your child's medical care covered, not assign permanent blame.
-
Will I have to drive to McKinney to meet with Kent?
Only if you want to. Allen and McKinney are about 10 minutes apart on US-75. We're happy to meet at our office at 5900 S Lake Forest Dr, Suite 200 in McKinney, but we also do home visits, hospital visits, and video consultations whenever that's easier — particularly if you're recovering from a serious injury.
