The only thing you can do is let your insurance company know what you believe.  They will look at the cars and make their determination.  Note that one can sustain soft tissue injuries being rearended at 10-15 mph, and they may not show up right away.  Still, it shouldn't be anything serious unless there were pre-existing injuries, which is always a possiblity.  Your insurer will get their medical information and look for that as well.  You can always consult a Dallas accident lawyer.
