CAR ACCIDENTS
When most people think of auto accident injuries, a stiff neck or back comes to mind. However, the injuries from a crash can be far more serious, and in many cases don’t appear for days after the accident.
CAR ACCIDENTS
If property damage, injuries or death, DUI, or an uninsured driver is involved, legal representation is essential. Both property damage and injuries can be more extensive than they appear, and insurance companies are eager to settle for as little as possible. In addition, Texas is a comparative negligence state, so the other party will be motivated to raise your at-fault percentage as high as possible to reduce your claim. We have both the legal knowledge and the objectivity to evaluate your case and fight for every dollar you deserve.
TRUCK ACCIDENTS (18-wheeler)
Your claim needs to include not only your current medical bills and lost wages, but also estimates for future care and loss of earning capacity. We have the experience to break down the complex issues involved in a truck accident case.
TRUCK ACCIDENTS
Truck accidents can be both more devastating and more complex than car accidents. You need an attorney who knows how to negotiate with multiple parties, from trucking companies to truck manufacturers, and how to determine whether the driver followed all FMCSA (Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration) guidelines.
COMMERCIAL VEHICLE ACCIDENTS
Commercial vehicle accidents are governed by both state and federal laws. We know how to investigate all factors in a complicated commercial vehicle accident case.
COMMERCIAL VEHICLE ACCIDENTS
Like truck accidents, commercial vehicle accidents typically involve numerous parties, often across state lines. We know how to get to the bottom of who played what role in contributing to the accident, and how to protect your rights.
SLIP AND FALL
If you are injured in a slip and fall, what you do in the first days and weeks matters. A slip and fall incident may seem to cause nothing more than bruises and scrapes, only to have more serious injuries manifest later.
SLIP AND FALL
Comparative negligence guidelines are especially complex in slip and fall accidents. There are many questions that must be answered, from whether the property owner should have known of the hazard to whether your footwear was appropriate for the conditions. You need an experienced lawyer to guide you through the process.
DOG BITES
If you are bitten by a dog in Houston, your first call should be to a skilled dog bite lawyer. Dog bites are considered a form of personal injury, so Texas law gives you two years to file a lawsuit after the date of the bite.
DOG BITES
Texas has a “one bite rule.” To pursue a claim, you must prove that the owner knew the dog was aggressive or had previously bitten someone, or that the owner’s negligence in controlling the dog caused your injuries. Proving these facts can be complex, so you need the guidance of an experienced attorney.
THIRD PARTY WORK RELATED INJURIES
If you are injured at work, you may qualify for a workers’ compensation claim. Workers’ comp is a state-managed insurance system that nearly all employers are required to provide.
THIRD PARTY WORK RELATED INJURIES
A third party work related injury occurs when someone who does not work for your company injures you while you are on the job. A common example is a car accident in the company car. The accident is work related, since you were on the job, but the driver who hit you has nothing to do with your employer. Special guidelines apply to these cases, and an experienced attorney will ensure that everything is properly filed.
TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURIES
If a loved one has suffered a traumatic brain injury at the fault of another person, you have legal options. Whether the injury occurred due to a car accident, a work incident, or some other unfortunate event, the liable party should be held responsible.
TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURIES
A traumatic brain injury is a catastrophic injury that will change your life forever. Putting a dollar value on this type of claim involves a complex mix of different types of damages, from lifelong medical care to loss of quality of life. A skilled personal injury attorney will work through the process, consulting with experts as needed, to ensure a fair settlement.
