Beware of Ambulance Chasing Lawyers

Carrollton Personal Injury Lawyer
Written By Carrollton Injury Lawyer Joel Hudson

If you have been injured in an accident, you have enough on your plate. You shouldn’t have to watch out for ambulance chasing scammers too. Unfortunately, it happens and it can be hard to differentiate a helpful
Samaritan from someone who is employed by a lawyer to get your information. Here’s what to watch out for:

  • Any solicitors at the accident scene

  • People at the accident scene “offering advice” about which attorney to use

  • Letters you receive in the mail from attorneys who know you were in an accident

  • People who claim they are representatives of “accident victim organizations”


The goal of ambulance chasers is to manipulate you into signing up for a lawyer. No respectable lawyer will approach you in this manner to get you to sign up for legal services. “Ambulance chasing” is unethical, and in Texas it’s illegal.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my website. I’m Joel Hudson, the founder of Carrollton Injury Law, located at 4221 Medical Pkwy, Suite 300, Carrollton, TX 75010.

With over 25 years of experience practicing personal injury law, I’ve built my firm on a simple belief: there’s a better way to handle injury claims. It starts with treating you like a person—not a number—and continues with consistent communication throughout your entire case. You can reach me directly at (972) 360-9898 to discuss your situation—I’m here to listen.

I’ve seen how a single injury can ripple through every part of your life, affecting not just you but your family too. That’s why my approach is different. At Carrollton Injury Law, we don’t just chase settlements; we focus on you. I’ve found that giving clients the extra attention many Dallas law firms overlook leads to happier clients, smoother dealings with adjusters who appreciate the updates, and, ultimately, higher injury settlements in less time. My clients often call me the “personal” attorney because we care about maximizing your recovery while also helping you navigate the disruptions a car accident or injury brings—whether it’s medical bills, lost work, or simply getting back to normal.

I earned my Juris Doctor from Texas A&M University School of Law in 1998, after completing my Bachelor of Arts in Communications and Business at Texas Christian University in 1992. Since being admitted to practice in Texas in 1998, I’ve dedicated my career to fighting for injury victims across the state.
