Texarkana patients face a unique challenge: crash injuries that cross the Texas–Arkansas border mean dealing with two states' insurance rules. Mayfield Chiropractic in Shreveport — about 70 minutes via I-20 East — handles cross-state auto insurance, attorney liens, and MVA expert-witness documentation so you get care without the paperwork headaches.
Texarkana is the only major U.S. city that straddles a state line at its center. State Line Avenue literally divides Texas (Bowie County) from Arkansas (Miller County). That geography creates a real complication after a car accident: which state's insurance rules govern your claim? Texas operates under a fault-based system; Arkansas uses a comparative-fault model. Coverage requirements, claim timelines, and lien enforcement procedures differ — and many clinics aren't prepared to navigate both.
Mayfield Chiropractic handles exactly this situation. Dr. Gregory Mayfield has more than 31 years of experience treating motor-vehicle-accident injuries and serving as an MVA expert witness — which means he produces the causal narratives, injury documentation, and testimony that attorneys on both sides of the border need to support your claim. Whether your crash happened in Texarkana, TX or Texarkana, AR, the clinic coordinates directly with your insurer or PI attorney.
Getting here: From central Texarkana, take I-30 East to I-49 South, or US-59 South to I-20 East into Shreveport — approximately 70 minutes to 2219 Line Ave. Same-day appointments mean you don't lose valuable days waiting for care after a crash.
Auto accidents cause a predictable set of injuries — but the full pattern often extends beyond the obvious point of pain. Dr. Mayfield evaluates the whole picture, which is critical both for your recovery and for documenting the injury's scope in a personal-injury claim.
The most common crash injury, often delayed in onset. Early evaluation prevents acute soft-tissue damage from becoming chronic pain.
Rear-end and side-impact forces transmit directly into the lumbar and thoracic spine, causing strain, misalignment, and disc loading.
Herniated or bulging discs pressing on nerve roots produce radiating pain, tingling, and weakness — a common crash outcome.
Headaches following a crash typically trace to upper cervical injury or muscle tension — not unrelated stress — and respond well to chiropractic care.
Muscle and ligament tears throughout the spine and extremities are common but difficult to see on imaging — thorough documentation matters for claims.
Impact forces can shift vertebral alignment, affecting nerve function and creating secondary pain patterns that persist without correction.
A crash shouldn't leave you choosing between medical care and paying rent. Mayfield Chiropractic accepts medical liens and Letters of Protection (LOP) — arrangements that allow you to begin treatment immediately and pay from your settlement once the case resolves. Nothing out of pocket during your recovery.
The clinic defers payment in exchange for a lien against your eventual settlement. Common with PI attorneys handling TX and AR auto-accident claims.
A written agreement between the clinic and your attorney. You receive full care now; the bill is satisfied from your settlement proceeds at closing.
We bill your auto insurer directly — including personal injury protection (PIP) and MedPay coverage available under Texas or Arkansas policies.
We also accept cash, credit card, health insurance, VA Benefits, and Medicare for patients with other coverage situations.
Dr. Gregory Mayfield is a former police officer — he understands crash mechanics from the scene up. That perspective, combined with 31+ years of MVA chiropractic experience, makes him a credible expert witness in personal-injury litigation on both sides of the Texas–Arkansas border.
When your case requires it, Dr. Mayfield provides:
This level of documentation isn't standard at every chiropractic office. For Texarkana patients whose attorneys need to prove injury causation across two state legal systems, it makes a measurable difference to your case.
Have your attorney contact us directly. We work with PI law firms in both Texas and Arkansas and are familiar with the documentation requirements each state's litigation process demands.
