Bouldin Creek sits just south of Lady Bird Lake, connected to downtown by the Congress Avenue Bridge and separated from it in feel by just about everything else. The neighborhood grew through the mid-20th century as a working-class residential community and has held onto that unpretentious identity even as South Congress Avenue transformed into one of Austin’s most visited corridors.
Today Bouldin Creek is a mix of longtime residents, craftsman bungalows, and a walkable stretch of independent restaurants, vintage shops, and local institutions that define what people mean when they say “Keep Austin Weird.” Key places in and around the neighborhood include:
It’s a dense, walkable neighborhood where cars, cyclists, and pedestrians share the same streets, and where accidents, when they happen, can have serious consequences.
Head north on South Congress Ave and cross the Congress Avenue Bridge. Once you’re across Lady Bird Lake, continue north on Congress to W César Chávez St and turn left. Turn right on Lavaca St, then left on W 15th St, and right on W 14th St. We’re at 502 W 14th St. The drive takes about 10 minutes in light traffic.
From the SoCo strip, the walk to our office is roughly 25 to 30 minutes heading north. Cross the Congress Avenue Bridge, keep going north, and hang a left when you reach the W 14th St block. It’s a flat, straightforward route through the heart of Austin.
Capital Metro’s Route 10 runs directly between South Congress and downtown, with stops a short walk from our office. The MetroRapid 803 line is another solid option if you’re coming from further south on the corridor.
South Austin streets, especially along S Congress and S First, and the surrounding residential grid see their share of serious accidents. McMinn Personal Injury Lawyers represents Bouldin Creek residents injured in:
Congestion on SoCo and surrounding streets creates frequent fender-benders and more serious collisions. Our attorneys dig into crash reports, traffic camera footage, and witness accounts to build the strongest possible case for compensation.
Motorcyclists in Bouldin Creek face real risks navigating busy intersections and the Congress Avenue corridor. When a collision occurs, riders often suffer severe injuries. We fight to make sure insurance companies don’t undervalue the true cost of those injuries.
Bars, restaurants, and retail shops along SoCo and South First have a legal duty to keep their premises safe. When they don’t, we hold them accountable for wet floors, broken steps, and poor lighting that lead to someone getting hurt.
Delivery trucks and commercial vehicles serving the SoCo business corridor operate under state and federal regulations. When a driver or carrier cuts corners on safety, our attorneys know how to investigate and who to pursue.
When a loved one dies because someone else acted recklessly or negligently, the family is left dealing with grief and sudden financial pressure at the same time. Our wrongful death attorneys help Bouldin Creek families seek justice and pursue the compensation they’re owed.
Texas law allows injury victims to seek two broad categories of damages after an accident caused by someone else’s negligence.
Economic damages cover the concrete financial losses you can document, things like hospital bills, specialist visits, physical therapy, prescription costs, and the wages you missed while you were unable to work. If your injuries affect your ability to earn money long-term, that loss of future earning capacity is recoverable too.
Non-economic damages address what’s harder to put a number on: the physical pain you’ve endured, the anxiety and emotional toll of the recovery, the activities you can no longer enjoy, and any permanent change to your body or daily life. These losses are real even when they don’t come with a receipt.
Specific items we work to recover include:
No. McMinn Personal Injury Lawyers works on a contingency fee basis, which means you owe us nothing to get started. No retainer, no hourly billing, no out-of-pocket legal costs while your case is active.
Our fee is a percentage of whatever we recover for you. If we don’t win, you don’t pay. That structure keeps our incentives aligned with yours; we only get paid when you do.
Texas sets a two-year statute of limitations on most personal injury claims, measured from the date of the accident. Miss that window, and you lose the legal right to pursue compensation, regardless of how strong your case is.
Two years may sound like plenty of time, but evidence disappears, witnesses’ memories fade, and building a solid claim takes time. Contacting an attorney early gives your case the best possible foundation.
