Slip and fall cases are among some of the more numerous legal cases that are handled all over the country. People that walk into a place of business where there are obstacles on the floor or places that are extremely wet, can lead to significant problems. For example, you could go to a grocery store where they have forgotten to put up signs that they have recently mopped. If you slip and fall, and can show that the signs were not there, it is possible that you may receive compensation for the injuries that you could sustain. Let’s look at how a person can actually prove whether or not they should receive compensation in a slip and fall case.

How do you make this determination?
This determination is actually made based upon several different factors. First of all, there needs to be an official account of what has happened. This could be provided not only by the store owner but by the police that must come in to make the report. Any pictures that can be obtained from not only the victim but people that are also in the store at the same time, can be used as evidence. A track record of negligence on the part of the person that owns the facility can also be very beneficial. If an owner is consistently negligent, then it is likely that each subsequent person that is the victim of their negligence will get a substantial settlement.

Why these are so hard to prove
The main reason that these are difficult to prove is because of how most owners ensure that they are covered in the case of a slip and fall accident. They may keep a log of regular maintenance around their facility, or logs when areas are mopped or swept, which can be used as evidence in their favor. There is also the possibility that the area where the person has fallen was not the result of negligence but an accident that had occurred earlier. For example, if a person slips on powder or sugar, there is always the possibility that this had accidentally fallen from the shelf, and is not the specific fault of the owner.

Choosing a good lawyer for this type of case
To select one of the best lawyers in this particular area of law, public opinion matters a lot. In large cities, especially those that have multiple personal injury lawyers with websites online, finding information about them is actually very easy to do. For example, you can look at star ratings on Google’s local listings, and similar information can be found on Yelp. After evaluating this info, it will usually lead you to the most competent choice when it comes to working with a slip and fall lawyer or law firm that can help you out.

A person that has genuinely injured themselves as a result of a slip and fall accident should be entitled to some form of compensation. In most cases, this typically happens without the individual trying to actually get hurt. There are some people that will purposefully try to sue companies with the intent of getting some form of compensation, whereas real accidents where victims are hurt should always try to find a reputable personal injury lawyer that can help them get the compensation that they are due.

At some hospitals, 18-36% of patients may suffer harm from a medical mistake that causes injury or death.

Doctors, surgeons, nurses, and other medical professionals provide a valuable service by saving lives and making people better when they are sick. It is unfortunate that there are times when avoidable mistakes are made that can result in serious injury or death. Most often, medical malpractice claims arise because the health care provider has either failed to timely diagnose a condition or disease or failed to properly treat it. At our Law Firm, medical malpractice attorneys are skilled and experienced in handling medical malpractice claims. Please review the following information to learn more about medical malpractice claims. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Dog & Animal Bites

Every year, millions of Americans are bitten or attacked by dogs. An analysis by the Center for Disease Control showed that in one year alone, approximately 368,245 persons were treated in Emergency Rooms for dog bite-related injuries that were not fatal. Most of the injured were children, and among them the most common injuries were to the face.

Many of the victims of animal attacks require serious medical treatment as a result. When such attacks occur, the owner of the dog is legally responsible for the actions of the offending animal.

If you have suffered an injury caused by an animal bite, of if your child was bitten by a dog, you need to understand the full extent of your rights to recover compensation for pain and suffering, medical bills, and any lost wages.

Our attorneys handle dog bite injury claims ranging from lacerations requiring just a few stitches to injuries that lead to severe reconstructive surgeries and life-altering damages. The attorneys in our office stand ready to help you handle insurance claims and other requests for compensation.

Boating Accidents

Boat operators and boat owners have a duty to exercise the highest degree of care so as not to injure either the passengers in their boat, passengers in other boats, or swimmers in the water. Federal and state agencies, including the United States Coast Guard, are charged with regulating boating safety, and the law generally holds boat operators and owners liable if they were negligent–in other words if they did not behave in the way that a reasonable person would behave in similar circumstances.

If you or someone you know has been injured in a boating-related accident, or if you lost a close relative to such an accident, our lawyers are specifically trained to assist you in your time of need. Whether the accident was due to the driver’s error, lack of experience, operating the boat while intoxicated, or whether adverse weather was a factor, we can help.

Our attorneys have represented clients for injuries incurred due to boating accidents or collisions all over Texas. We stand ready to discuss your case and evaluate the best way to proceed, working directly with insurance companies and with the parties responsible for the crash, to make sure that all your rights are protected and that you will be compensated quickly and completely.

Brain Damage/Injury

Whether incurred due to a motor vehicle accident, a slip and fall injury, or due to negligent fire-arm use, a blow or jolt to the head, can disrupt the function of the brain. The severity of a Traumatic Brain Injury can range from a concussion to a coma or even death.

Our attorneys represent clients and the loved ones of clients located in Texas who have suffered brain injuries. Traumatic Brain Injuries are always life-altering injuries. It is our goal to ensure that the rights of injured parties are protected when a brain injury occurs.

Cycling Accidents and Injuries

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 846 bicyclists were killed in traffic accidents in the U.S. in 2019. Many more were injured.

Bicycle accidents can occur in a variety of ways: while many crashes occur at intersections, others are the result of motorists overtaking and either striking from behind or sideswiping riders who are traveling in the same direction; improper lane changes by either the riders or the motorists; or, occasionally, a motorist simply opening the car door without checking, blocking a rider’s path.

The attorneys at our Law Office are experienced in representing bicycle riders who have suffered personal injuries from traffic accidents. We also represent surviving family members who have lost loved ones in accidents as a result of other people’s reckless or negligent behavior.

Personal injuries suffered by cyclists may range from dislocations and broken bones to head injuries, nerve damages, spinal cord paralysis, or even the loss of a limb. In the aftermath of such traumatic experiences, most people must focus on their recovery. Our role as attorneys is to ensure that our injured clients get their medical bills paid, that they recover any lost wages, and that the insurance companies involved will pay for any future treatment related to the injuries sustained. We will use our experience to help you understand your various options, to negotiate with insurance companies as needed, and work with all the parties involved in order to make sure that your needs are met in a timely manner.

If you or someone you love has been injured in a cycling accident in Texas or if you are a survivor of someone who has been killed in such an accident, please contact us right away for a free consultation.

Injuries to Minors and Children

Injuries to children, or the death of a child, are every parent’s worst nightmare. Sometimes these tragedies happen due to the negligence of another person. In such situations, our court system allows the parents or guardians of a minor to bring a claim or lawsuit on the minor’s behalf.

Many of the injuries sustained by minors occur in accidents related to:

Cars and other motor vehicles
Fireworks
Playground equipment
Household products that contain poisonous ingredients
Household fires
Swimming

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report that approximately 400,000 children under the age of 14 require Emergency Room treatment for traumatic brain injuries each year. Especially when the injuries are serious or debilitating, an injured child may require lifelong care and treatment. Unfortunately, such treatment comes with exceedingly high healthcare costs. At our Law Office, we realize the utmost importance of timely compensation for injuries sustained by a minor. Our goal is to ensure that the present and future costs of treatment are effectively demonstrated and fully considered in the process of pursuing recovery for damages sustained by a minor.

If you are a parent, guardian, or concerned adult related to a minor who has been severely injured, we would like the opportunity to discuss your concerns. Please contact us right away for a free consultation.

Nursing Home Abuse & Negligence

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 1.6 million older Americans, or 4% of the overall population of those 65 and older, live in nursing home facilities. Many of them are frail and dependent on professional helpers hired to meet their most basic needs. Unfortunately, some of the most vulnerable residents end up being abused or neglected in their nursing home facilities.

Without proper care, bedridden nursing home residents, in particular, may suffer from bedsores, infections, or injuries caused by a fall. Injured senior citizens require even more care, at greater expense, and become even more dependent on others for help.

Nursing home facilities in all states must, at minimum, comply with the mandates of federal regulations, including:

That the nursing homes have sufficient staff to meet the residents’ needs
That the nursing homes develop an individualized care plan for each resident
That the nursing homes provide the services necessary to maintain good nutrition and hygiene for each resident
That the nursing homes recognize each resident’s right to choose activities, health care, etc.
In addition, some states have enacted laws that go beyond the federal requirements, affording their citizens even greater protection against nursing home abuse and neglect.

If you notice that a relative or friend who lives in a nursing home shows signs of unexplained bruising, dehydration, unexplained weight loss, or untreated infections, you might be in a position to help that person, as well as their fellow residents, get the proper care that they deserve.

If you suspect that a relative or friend living in a nursing home in Texas is suffering from nursing home negligence or even abuse, please contact our Law Office right away. We will be glad to provide a free consultation to discuss the legal options that might protect that person from future harm, as well as provide compensation for any past suffering.

Pedestrian Accidents

Some of the most devastating personal injury claims arising out of collisions between automobiles and pedestrians. The Highway Loss Data Institute reports that 6,205 pedestrians died as a result of traffic accidents in the U.S. in 2019. Unaware of the impending danger posed by negligent drives, pedestrians are particularly vulnerable. Many of the claims arising out of pedestrian accidents involve death or significant bodily injuries that may cause permanent damage and severely limit the victim’s quality of life.

Typical injuries suffered by pedestrians in collisions with moving vehicles include broken bones in the lower limbs (caused by the impact with a vehicle’s bumper or hood) and traumatic brain injuries (which often occur when the passenger’s head hits either the windshield or the hood of the car). Given the severity of the injuries typically incurred in pedestrian accidents, immediate action must be taken to protect the rights of the injured parties and their families.

If you are facing pain and suffering, growing medical bills, or lost wages due to a pedestrian-vehicle collision, or if you have lost a relative to such a collision, please contact our Law Office to schedule an appointment for a free consultation. We would be happy to meet you at our office. It is our mission to fully advise you of the legal rights and options you have in such a situation. We stand ready to help you maximize the compensation that you can recover from the parties responsible for the harm.

===========================gtg

Slip & Fall Accidents

When a person slips and falls on another person’s property, either the owner of the property or the tenant who has control over it and is responsible for its maintenance at that point may be liable (i.e. legally responsible) for any injury that results from the fall.

In order to receive monetary compensation for the harm suffered, the injured person must prove that the property’s owners or tenants either failed to properly maintain the property, created the unsafe condition that led to the injury, or failed to alert their visitors about specific dangerous conditions that the owners or tenants knew about. (The “Wet Floor” signs that you might see in stores, or the signs warning pedestrians about construction areas, are efforts to fulfill the duty to warn imposed by law).

If the unsafe condition that led to an injury was temporary, the ability of the injured party to prove his or her case would depend, in part, on the duration of that condition: the longer the hazard existed, the more likely it would generally be that the injured party would receive compensation for injuries caused by the condition.

The image of a person slipping on a banana peel may be one of the oldest gags in the world, but for people who are severely injured, slip-and-fall accidents are extremely serious. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimate that approximately 1 million people are injured in slip-and-fall accidents in the U.S. every year, and about 20-30% of them suffer moderate to severe trauma, including broken bones and head injuries.

If you have been injured by a fall suffered on someone else’s property, due to someone else’s negligence, please contact us right away for a free consultation.

Lawsuits & Litigation

If you are considering filing an accident-related lawsuit in Texas, our experienced attorneys stand ready to help you.

We would be glad to provide a free initial consultation to discuss your case. Afterward, we will work with you to determine the best way to resolve the dispute. We will consider all the approaches that avoid litigation–including mediation, arbitration, or other Alternative Dispute Resolution processes, where they are likely to work; at the same time, we are prepared to go forward with litigation, in state or federal court, if other efforts fail.

Our experienced litigators will work diligently to maximize your recovery and do so with an eye toward keeping litigation costs down. We seek to be both effective and efficient.

Throughout the process, we will keep you informed of the progress of your case.

Having served numerous clients, we also understand that the pursuit of personal injury claims can be particularly stressful. The injured victims and their loved ones may find it difficult to relive painful experiences before or during the trial; in cases of severe injuries, insurance companies may try to limit their potential payouts by trying to undermine every element of a victim’s claims. Insurance companies have experienced attorneys on their side; you should have the same. Our goal is to use our experience and expertise to protect our clients, as we seek the best resolution of their claims.

Nursing Home Neglect and Abuse

The decision to place your loved one in a nursing home is an emotional one. In making this decision you have entrusted the nursing home to provide a safe environment and quality care for your loved one. Unfortunately, oftentimes nursing homes do not provide quality care and your loved one can become injured. Some of the most common injuries that occur in the nursing home setting are the development of bedsore sores/pressure ulcers, dehydration, malnutrition, broken hips, and sexual abuse.

Nursing home residents have rights that are protected by state and federal statutes. For instance, a resident who enters a nursing home or other facility without pressure sores does not develop pressure sores unless it is unavoidable based on the resident’s clinical condition.

However, in our experience, bedsores/pressure sores can be prevented and are avoidable if the proper care is given. If you or a loved one have developed bedsores/pressure sores while a patient in a nursing home, hospital, or another facility, contact our Law Group for a free confidential consultation.

Motorcycle Accidents

Supporting Victims Of Motorcycle Accidents
If you have been involved in a motorcycle accident, it’s likely you sustained not only great damage to your bike but also serious injuries. Bikers are especially vulnerable on the road. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, motorcyclists are 35 times more likely to experience a fatal accident than drivers of passenger vehicles.

An experienced lawyer understands that a serious accident can create chaos both for you and your loved ones. Dedicated to supporting victims of motor vehicle accidents through tough times, an attorney has knowledge, skills, and commitment you can benefit from.

To set up an appointment with a car accident lawyer, call our office.

The Harmful Aftermath Of A Motorcycle Crash
Even when motorcyclists drive safely and wear helmets, they’re still exposed to more danger and a higher risk of injury than other drivers. As is the case in car accidents, drunk drivers contribute to many motorcycle collisions. Other times, motorcycle accidents are caused when:

A passenger motorist doesn’t see a biker
Manufacturer defects exist in the motorcycle
A driver fails to use turn signals
Passenger motorists ignore traffic signs and other road rules
Distracted drivers are unsafe on the road
Because bikers have limited protection on the road, they are prone to serious head trauma and other injuries. Even if you apparently walked away from an accident scene feeling just fine, it’s important to be seen by a medical professional as certain injuries are not readily apparent until weeks after an accident. Indications of injury to the head or brain include:

Feeling dizzy or light-headed
Extreme fatigue or sleepiness
Trouble sleeping
Blurred vision
Losing consciousness
If you have experienced any of the above, it’s vital to seek immediate medical attention. In the process, keep a careful record of all medical treatment and follow all prescribed doctor orders as this will be important toward making any effective personal injury claim.

Don’t Stay A Victim
An attorney knows that an accident can have a serious impact on the well-being of you and your loved ones, particularly if you’re the breadwinner of the household. A serious injury can keep you from participating in the activities you enjoy along with your ability to earn a living. That’s why you shouldn’t stay a victim. Exercise your legal rights by holding the negligent party accountable.

A personal injury lawyer can help your case to be successful. By carefully investigating your accident and gathering appropriate evidence, a lawyer can create a strong case against the negligent party. If your case is successful, you could receive compensation to cover not only your present medical bills and accident-related expenses but also future costs resulting from an incident.

Pedestrian Accidents

Were You Hit In A Recent Crash?
Oftentimes, those most vulnerable people in motor vehicle accidents are not in vehicles. Pedestrians, beyond crosswalks and street signs, have no protection on the road. When a motorist causes a pedestrian-related accident, the results can be traumatic.

If you have been involved in a pedestrian accident, you likely sustained serious injuries and may have no idea what to do next. Medical bills may be piling up, perhaps you’ve been unable to return to work and you’re likely feeling utterly overwhelmed. That’s where an experienced attorney can help. A qualified lawyer will have the knowledge and experience to build a personal injury case on your behalf.

If you were harmed in a pedestrian accident, call our office to set up a consultation with an auto crash attorney.

The Harsh Reality Of Pedestrian Accidents
Nationwide, pedestrians are the victims of car accidents all too often. According to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, a total of 6,205 pedestrian deaths occurred in 2019. Pedestrian fatalities decreased 3 percent from 2018 but still account for 17 percent of all crash fatalities. Although pedestrian deaths were 17 percent lower in 2019 than in 1975, they have increased 51 percent since reaching their lowest point in 2009. What’s causing these accidents? The causes are many, but nearly all stem from distracted or reckless driving, including drivers who:

Text or talk on cellphones behind the wheel
Fail to look both ways at a crosswalk
Ignore speed limits or traffic signals
Disregard pedestrians’ right of way
Reckless drivers are a threat to everyone on the road, and pedestrian victims often receive the worst injuries at the hands of such drivers. Traumatic head injuries and back and neck injuries, along with broken bones and cuts, are some of the wounds caused by reckless drivers. These injuries are not only painful but can be incredibly costly to treat.

Along with medications and physical therapies, your injuries may require extensive surgeries that cost both time and money. If your injuries have taken you away from work, the financial burden can be especially overwhelming. Getting the support of a personal injury attorney can prove invaluable in the wake of an accident.

Protecting Pedestrians’ Rights
An experienced lawyer will be committed to protecting victims’ rights and advocating for them in court. An attorney understands you’ve been harmed and it will be his or her goal to mitigate your pain by alleviating financial pressures. If your lawsuit is successful, your compensation can cover the full extent of your medical bills and other accident-related injuries. Winning a case can also help to assuage the emotional trauma caused by the crash.

To help you realize a favorable outcome, an attorney will vigilantly analyze the details of your accident, seeking out relevant evidence to build up your case. Your attorney can also advise you on steps to take to improve the prospects for your case, such as documenting your injuries and other ways in which the accident has harmed you and your loved ones.

Bicycle Accidents

Helping Victims Of Bicycle Accidents
Unfortunately, wearing a helmet and respecting the rules of the road is often not enough to keep cyclists safe from negligent motorists. Motorists are still failing to see or yield to those who are cycling, and the repercussions of the resulting bicycle accidents can be distressing.

If you or a loved one was recently struck by a motorist while riding your bicycle, legal support is available to you. A personal injury lawyer can help hold the careless driver responsible and pursue financial compensation for damages you have sustained. You don’t have to let an accident ruin your life.

To schedule an initial consultation with a skilled attorney, call our office today to get started.

Bicycle Injuries Can Be Life-Threatening
The effects of a bicycle crash can impact you and your loved ones both now and into the future. Not only may your injuries necessitate taking time away from work, but they can also prevent you from participating in the hobbies and activities you formerly enjoyed. If your injuries have left you disabled, your entire lifestyle may have changed.

An experienced attorney understands the great impact an accident can have on you. Whether caused by a car accident or another type of motor vehicle crash, your injuries may have serious and drastic consequences that hurt your quality of life. Holding the negligent driver liable can help you recover full compensation for damages, such as:

All medical costs, including surgeries, medications, physical therapies, and other treatments
Home remodel if your injuries have inhibited your mobility
Pain and suffering resulting from a crash
Missed paychecks as a result of your time away from work
Vocational training if you’re unable to return to your former career field
An attorney can further personalize your personal injury lawsuit based on the unique circumstances of your accident. In order to achieve a successful settlement, however, certain factors must be present. For one, it will be critical to compile evidence against the liable driver and keep careful documentation of how the crash has impacted your life.

It’s also important to avoid settling with the insurance company. Knowing that you’re in a vulnerable state, insurance companies often try to have you settle for less than the true value of your case. This is because insurance adjusters do not factor in the long-term financial cost of the accident. They may reimburse you for present surgeries and medical needs, but will not compensate you for medical care needed in the future.

An Advocate For Victims’ Right
By speaking to a compassionate personal injury attorney, you can confidently move forward with a lawsuit. Unlike insurance adjusters, an attorney has your best interests in mind and will work with the goal of having you attain the highest possible level of compensation.

While the legal process can be a challenging one, a proficient lawyer has the experience to understand what threshold of evidence and documentation is typically necessary to win tough cases. Don’t settle for less than you deserve; contact a personal injury attorney today.

Dangerous Roads

Did Dangerous Road Conditions Cause Your Accident?
If you were recently injured in a car accident, you understand the stressful aftermath of a crash and may wish more than anything to get your life back to normal. However, the financial burden caused by an accident can be immense, and returning to normalcy may seem impossible.

That’s why you need the support of an experienced personal injury attorney. Not only will a lawyer be knowledgeable on Texas law and informed of your legal rights, but this professional will also understand which car accident causes qualify for compensation.

Even if you’re uncertain of what actually led to your crash, a lawyer can carefully research your accident and give you the information you need to make an informed legal decision.

To learn more about whether you may qualify for compensation, call our office to set up a consultation with a car accident attorney.

What Qualifies As Dangerous Roads?
If you were hit in a fender-bender or impacted by a drunk driving accident, establishing blame is relatively straightforward. If dangerous roads or bad driving conditions played a part in your accident, determining liability can be less obvious. You may be asking yourself, “Who is responsible and what can I do?”

In most cases regarding dangerous roads, the local or state government can be held liable for the damages you sustained. This is because people have a right to safe driving conditions, and if the city fails to provide them, victims have the right to take legal recourse.

Dangerous roads and driving conditions can be defined in numerous ways, but common issues seen in legal cases have included:

Poor signage
Neglected potholes
Inadequate lighting
Broken stoplights
Improperly designated construction zone
These are just some examples of conditions contributing to dangerous roads and, based on the specifics of your case, your lawyer may know of others. In some situations, the local or state government may also be held responsible for not properly preparing roads to be drivable in adverse weather conditions. This is especially true if the city, for instance, was instructed to put up more guardrails and failed to do so.

As part of building your case, a lawyer or another trained professional will study the scene of your accident, looking for elements that may have contributed to your crash. If any problems are evident in regard to the pavement, traffic lights, stop signs, or another roadway condition, your lawyer can pinpoint the fault and move forward with your case.

Back Injuries

Did Your Accident Cause A Back Injury?
If you were recently involved in an auto crash that led to a back injury, your life has likely been deeply affected. By limiting your mobility and making everyday activities painful, an injury can take a significant toll on your quality of life. If the crash was caused due to another driver’s carelessness, the questions about why a person acted in such a way may make the pain even worse.

Thankfully, an experienced personal injury lawyer can support you and move you in the direction of recovery. If you decide that legal action is right for you, any financial award or settlement is likely to factor in all costs associated with an accident, potentially bringing you financial security in an otherwise uncertain time.

To schedule a consultation with an accident attorney, call our office.

Understanding The Severity Of Your Back Pain
Back injuries are not always readily diagnosed. Initial back pain can sometimes go away over time, but that doesn’t mean no injury exists. If you are still experiencing pain days or weeks after your accident, seeking medical attention is a must.

Your pain could be indicative of a more serious ailment, such as an injury to the spinal cord or a strain or sprain. A strain is when a muscle or tendon supporting the back has been twisted, torn, or pulled. A sprain occurs when a ligament tears or stretches, hampering movement.

If you think you may have sustained a strain, sprain, or injury to the neck in an accident, it’s important to be aware of common symptoms and side effects so that you can seek medical treatment as soon as possible.

Indications of back injury include:

Muscle ache
Shooting or stabbing pain
Experiencing pain in your legs
Limited flexibility or range of motion in the lower or upper back
Inability to stand up straight

Medical treatment will vary according to the severity of your injury, but by treating your ailment early, you will gain the best chance of recovery. As such, it’s critical to carefully follow all prescribed medical orders along with maintaining up-to-date medical records. Should you decide to pursue legal action, your medical records will serve as evidence for how the accident harmed you.

Begin The Recovery Process With Support
A back injury doesn’t have to shortchange your life. By being proactive and exercising your legal rights, you can hold the guilty party accountable for negligent actions and receive the monetary compensation you deserve.

A lawyer experienced in handling personal injury cases can help you begin this process and will be by your side throughout the development of your case. An attorney will not only clarify all legalese for you but can also provide answers to important questions such as the duration and worth of your case.

No one ever plans life around a serious car accident injury, but by taking legal action, you may be able to bring about some measure of justice and healing to you and your loved ones.

Brain Injuries

Did An Accident Leave You With A Brain Injury?
Any car accident injury has the potential to be serious, but those impacting the brain can be especially dangerous. An injury to the brain can have far more severe implications than a broken arm or leg, for example, because the brain largely controls all of the body’s motor and cognitive functioning.

If you recently sustained a brain or head injury, it’s important to see a medical professional immediately. In the event your accident was caused through no fault of your own, it’s also important to seek out professional legal counsel. A qualified personal injury lawyer will work on your behalf to bring about justice for you and your family. If your case is successful, you could receive compensation to cover all of your medical needs.

Don’t jeopardize your physical health or financial welfare; contact an attorney to learn more about how you can file a personal injury claim.

To schedule a meeting with a car accident attorney who can answer your questions, call our office.

Recognizing The Symptoms Of Brain Injury
Car accidents and can be extremely hard on the human body. When a vehicle moving 55 miles per hour or greater strikes a car or fixed point, the body is forced out of its normal range of motion and the impact of such force can lead to life-threatening injury or, in the worst of cases, a fatal car accident.

Motor vehicle accidents are the second-leading cause of traumatic brain injuries (TBI) in the U.S., and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that at least 5.3 million Americans with TBI need help performing basic activities on a daily basis. Early diagnosis is generally the best prevention against more serious injury, and as such, if you’ve experienced any of the below symptoms after an accident, seeking medical help is a must.

Symptoms of mild TBI:

Losing consciousness for a few seconds or minutes
Feeling dizzy or losing balance
Vomiting
Experiencing headaches or sensitivity to light
Extreme fatigue
Feeling anxious or experiencing sudden mood swings
Feeling confused

Symptoms of moderate to severe TBI:

Lingering headache that only becomes worse
Great confusion
Slurred speech
Seizures
Inability to wake up from sleep
Fluids draining from nose or ears
Loss of coordination

Medical treatment will vary based on the severity of your injury, but diuretics, which reduce the level of tissue fluids, are often prescribed along with anti-seizure drugs. In certain cases, surgery may also be necessary to eliminate blood clots, mend skull fractures to address other issues.

Let Us Preserve Your Legal Rights
If you’re already receiving medical care, then you know that recovery comes at a cost. If your accident, however, was caused by another driver, you shouldn’t have to pay for his or her mistake. With the support of an experienced personal injury attorney, you can file a lawsuit against the liable party to recover compensation to not only cover your medical needs but provide for your family, too.

To learn more about your legal rights after sustaining serious injuries in a crash, call our office to set up a consultation with an auto accident attorney.

Head Injuries

Helping Victims Of Head Injuries
If you recently endured a head injury because of a car accident, you may still be a long way from feeling back to normal. Not only are you likely still feeling poorly, but your personal life and financial standing have probably also been impacted by your auto accident injuries.

An experienced personal injury attorney understands the ripple effect an accident can create in your life. This legal professional may be able to help you move on. By holding a responsible driver liable, you could recover compensation to pay for the medical bills, auto repairs, and other accident-related expenses impacting you and your loved ones.

Call our office to arrange a consultation with a car accident attorney who can advise you of your legal rights after a crash.

Understanding And Treating Your Head Injury
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, every 21 seconds someone sustains a head or brain injury. Falls are the leading cause of such injuries, but motor vehicle accidents are a close second. Injuries to the head often range in severity and while some ailments may simply need time to heal, like cuts or scrapes, others necessitate medical intervention and careful treatment.

The line between head and brain injuries is often blurred and some of the most commonly seen medical problems affecting the head include:

Concussion. The most common type of head injury, a concussion occurs when the head hits an object, such as the dashboard, with great force. A concussion can affect cognitive functioning and, in certain cases, create long-term damage. Indications of a concussion sometimes take hours or days to become evident, so being seen by a doctor after an accident is critical.
Contusion. This is when the brain has been bruised and experiences swelling. Symptoms of contusion can include memory loss, difficulty paying attention, and challenges expressing thoughts. Certain minor contusions can heal on their own while others will need immediate medical attention.
Hematoma. This occurs when bleeding in the brain forms a blood clot. This can be life-threatening and usually necessitates immediate surgery.
Traumatic brain injury (TBI). A hematoma, contusion, and even serious concussion can all be considered a TBI. Other types of TBI include torn brain tissues, skull fractures, and any other physical damage to the brain.
A doctor will know of the medical treatment best for you and, if you wish to pursue legal action, it will be important to carefully follow all prescribed medical treatment along with maintaining close documentation of these visits and treatments.

Helping You Recover Compensation
Treating a head injury can be both time-consuming and expensive. An attorney can help you preserve your time and money. If the crash that caused your injuries was due to another driver’s negligence, dangerous road conditions, defective car parts, or any other factor beyond your control, an attorney may be able to hold a responsible party liable for your medical expenses along with other costs you have endured from the accident.

By handling the legal matters for you, an attorney allows you to focus fully on your recovery process. While there are no guarantees of a successful outcome, an experienced lawyer will understand what legal steps can give you the highest likelihood of achieving a favorable outcome.

Neck Injuries

Did Your Accident Cause A Neck Injury?
Among the most common auto accident injuries, neck ailments affect many people. Commonly caused by whiplash as the body moves beyond its normal range of motion, neck injuries are often serious and can have long-term impacts on a victim’s mobility and quality of life.

If you were recently harmed in an auto accident, it’s important to be aware of your personal injury rights during this stressful time. With the right evidence and an experienced lawyer, you may be eligible to pursue compensation by taking legal action against the party responsible for the crash in which you were hurt.

To learn more about your options after a serious accident, call our office to set up a consultation with a car accident lawyer.

Treating Your Neck Injury
Injuries to the neck must be taken seriously, as harm to this part of the body can also lead to a spine or head injury. The neck is especially vulnerable because of its flexibility and, in an accident, hyperextension, and hyperflexion are common. Hyperextension occurs when the neck moves backward beyond its normal range of motion and hyperflexion occurs when the neck is forced forward. This can lead to strained muscles and ligaments, spinal fractures, and, in severe cases, paralysis.

Injuries to the neck are generally evident right away and are often signaled by:

Severe, sharp pain
Limited range of motion or none at all
Reduced concentration
Extreme fatigue
Neck injuries are most often diagnosed through diagnostic imaging techniques, which allow a doctor to get a visual picture of your injuries. An X-ray, computed tomography (CT) scan and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are all tests that allow you and a doctor to better understand your injury and more effectively treat it.

As with other injuries, treatment will vary, but surgeries and physical therapy are often necessary. Physical therapy can help strengthen your muscles to more naturally restore your strength while surgery may be advised in more serious cases.

Supporting You Every Step Of The Way
If you wish to take legal action against the party responsible for your injuries, properly documenting the accident scene will be critical. As such, it’s important to:

Call the police to the scene as soon as possible to file a police report
Photograph all damage to your vehicle along with injuries
Interview witnesses and record contact information
Exchange insurance information
Another important priority during the personal injury process should be to get informed about how to properly handle negotiations with the insurance company. In almost every instance of personal injury, it’s vital to first speak with a lawyer to understand the full value of your case. That way, if an insurance company offers you less compensation than you deserve, you can contest it.

Whatever your concerns after your accident, a personal injury attorney will be there to support you, gather evidence for your case, talk with the insurance company on your behalf and work to meet your unique needs in other important ways.

Do I Have A Case?

Understanding If You Have A Cause
After a serious accident that has left you and your loved ones harmed, it’s a good idea to consider whether legal action is right for you. If the accident left you with personal injuries or costly property damage, wondering if you have a case that can be especially relevant. An experienced lawyer can help you find the answers you need.

Beyond providing you with helpful insights and knowledge, an attorney will carefully evaluate your accident to determine first if you have a case, and second its potential for success. Because responding quickly after an accident can be a significant advantage in personal injury cases, it’s in your best interests to act now.

To set up a consultation with a car accident lawyer, call our office.

Important Factors To Consider
Regardless of which type of motor vehicle accident impacted you, two factors will be most important in determining whether you have a case: the cause of your accident and the extent of damage it has caused you. When a lawyer looks at your accident, determining its cause will be of great importance. If it can be proven that you aren’t to be blamed, your chances of seeing a favorable outcome increase.

Some of the most common causes of accidents that may justify legal action include being impacted by:

An intoxicated driver
Dangerous roads
Defective car parts
A distracted driver
Someone speeding or otherwise driving recklessly
If none of these factors were present in your case, your lawyer may know of others that apply. After determining the cause of the crash, assessing the level of damage comes next. Injuries, property damage, and the emotional trauma you experienced in the accident can all emphasize the harm done to you and your loved ones. However, like proving blame in the accident, you’ll need evidence of the damages you have sustained. Evidence can include:

The police report
Pictures of your motor vehicle and injuries
Medical bills and documents
Auto repair costs
Paychecks missed from work due to your recovery
Based on your situation, a lawyer can advise you on which evidence will be most relevant to your case and other steps to take after the accident. If the accident caused you to become disabled or otherwise unable to enjoy former hobbies and activities, your lawyer can factor that into your case. If you’re uncertain about the cause of the collision or having trouble quantifying the harm it has caused you, a lawyer can also advise you on these matters.

Helping You Recover Compensation
With the right evidence and the experience of a reputable accident attorney, your case may lead to a settlement or judgment that covers the full cost of your present and future accident-related costs.

You shouldn’t have to pay for another driver’s negligence and, with the support of a lawyer telling you what you need to know at each stage of the process, you may have a good shot at avoiding doing so.

How Much Is A Car Accident Settlement Worth?

What Is My Case Worth?
After determining if you have a case, the next question you’re likely to have concerns how much your auto accident settlement is worth. While an important question, it’s also one that will primarily depend upon the unique factors of your case, including the cause and damages involved in an auto accident.

After reviewing the details of a crash, an attorney experienced in handling personal injury claims can approximate the value of your case and advise you on your best legal options given the circumstances of your situation. Your lawyer’s counsel will include insight on how to protect your legal rights while understanding how Texas law is likely to impact your case.

To schedule a consultation with a car accident attorney, call our office.

Understanding The Value Of A Car Accident Settlement
The value of a personal injury claim is likely to be most affected by the level of harm that has been caused you. If an accident left you with a serious injury, you’re likely facing high hospital bills and future medical expenses that should be factored into a monetary award. That’s why working with a lawyer is important.

A lawyer will work diligently to assess the harm done to you and your loved ones, factoring in all past, present, and future losses and damages you have experienced or are likely to experience. These include:

Property damage, such as auto repairs, the cost of a car rental, and other expenses related to your property
Hospital care and rehabilitation, including the current total sum of medical costs resulting from the accident as well as likely future obligations
Personal care, in the event injuries have left you disabled and you must cover the costs of live-in care
Disability accommodations, in the event a home remodel or new vehicle is needed to better accommodate your needs
Lost income if you were or continue to be unable to return to work as the result of an accident
School, in the event that you would like to explore a new vocation because of your accident injuries have closed off your former career
The pain and suffering you experienced in the accident and its aftermath can also be factored into your settlement or judgment.

Supporting Victims In Their Time Of Need
If you do wish to take legal action, it’s important to be careful in working with the insurance company. Oftentimes, insurance adjustors aim to have you settle for less than the true value of your case, and by settling with an insurance company, you have forfeited your right to file a personal injury lawsuit. Don’t settle for less than you deserve.

Talk to a lawyer to ensure you understand the actual worth of your case. An attorney will also be happy to fill you in on all other aspects of what you need to know when it comes to moving forward with a lawsuit.

Do I Need A Lawyer For A Car Accident?

Determining If You Need A Lawyer After Your Accident
After a traumatic car crash, you’ll likely have countless concerns and questions about what to do next. You know you need to fix or replace your car, but what about the steep hospital bills? Who’s supposed to pay for those? And how can you prove that the accident wasn’t your fault? You may even wonder whether you need a lawyer after a car accident.

Enlisting the support of a lawyer is optional and some victims choose to forgo legal support. However, a lawyer will work with your best interests in mind, informing you of what you need to know and ensuring your legal rights are protected during the personal injury process.

An experienced accident lawyer will not only have the legal knowledge you need during this difficult time but he or she can actively investigate your accident to identify evidence that can strengthen your personal injury claim.

To learn more about how a lawyer can help, schedule a consultation with an auto accident lawyer by calling us.

How A Lawyer Can Support You
Not every accident on the streets and roadways demands a lawyer. If your accident, for instance, caused minimal property damage and you largely contributed to the actual crash, working with a lawyer may not be right for you. However, you may profit from the support of an attorney if any of the following apply:

Another driver’s negligence caused your accident
You were involved in a hit-and-run accident
The insurance company is pressuring you to settle
You were struck by a drunk driver
You suffered a great injury because of the accident
The accident caused you to miss a long period of work
The negligent party totaled your car
If you choose to enlist an attorney, it will be his or her primary goal to help you recover compensation. This most often happens through a settlement or a civil court’s judgment, which ends the personal injury process. After understanding the worth of your case, your attorney will then aim to move the claims process along.

As part of this, your attorney will gather evidence and explore details of the accident, such as:

Weather conditions at the time of the accident
Traffic flow and congestion at the time
Where the accident took place
If eyewitnesses were present
Medical records and hospital bills
The police report
Injuries suffered by any passenger in the car
Damages to your vehicle
Just like every accident is different, so is every case, but by working with an experienced lawyer, you and your loved ones stand the best chance of holding the liable party responsible.

Protecting Victims’ Rights After An Accident
By enlisting the services of a lawyer, you can focus on what’s most valuable: your personal healing. When you hire a lawyer, you can put your mind at ease knowing your legal matters and financial stability are being professionally looked after. With experience, knowledge, and foresight, a lawyer can be your strongest ally during this difficult time.

What To Do After A Car Accident

Protect Yourself After An Crash
The steps you take immediately after an accident can have a significant impact on the outcome of your case, and while it’s normal to experience panic and worry after a crash, it’s critical to remain calm. By staying calm now and understanding what you need to know after an accident, you can take the best possible steps toward seeing a successful outcome.

No matter the circumstances of your accident, a lawyer is here to support you today. Regardless of the steps you took after an accident, a lawyer can still offer experienced counsel in this time of need.

Call our office to arrange a consultation with a car accident lawyer.

Steps To Take After An Accident
After an accident on the roadways, it’s important to remember that, under Texas law, if someone is injured, or the damage to one or more vehicles is more than $1000, you are required to report the accident to the police. If you fail to properly report the accident, leaving the scene of an accident, the offense can range from a misdemeanor to a felony, depending on the degree of damage or injury.

Not only is it vital to report the accident under state law, but the police report can also serve as valuable evidence in court as it includes the location, date, time, and information of all parties involved. After filing a police report, there are other important steps to take to possibly increase the worth of your case by having accurate and thorough documentation.

Thus, following these steps can give you the best chance of winning your case:

Photograph the scene of the accident, snapping pictures of all relevant property damage and injuries.
Exchange contact and insurance information with all involved parties.
Talk to people on the scene, asking them to describe the accident and documenting their contact information.
Notify the insurance company, but do not accept any payout without first speaking to a lawyer.
Maintain careful records of all accident-related expenses, including hospital visits and bills, auto repairs, and any other losses the accident has caused you.
Carrying registration records, insurance cards, and your license on you at all times is critical to be able to provide the appropriate information at the time of an accident. It’s also important to have a basic understanding of other Texas car accident laws that may impact you.

If the accident left you significantly injured, your personal health should be of utmost concern and, in these circumstances, seek medical help immediately. Have a friend or family member gather the above information on your behalf.

Helping Victims Every Step Of The Way
An attorney is here to streamline the legal process for you and simplify legal jargon so that you remain informed and prepared. While an accident can leave you feeling like a victim, there are steps you can take in the wake of a crash to empower yourself.

By carefully documenting your accident and gathering sufficient evidence, you can respond to the event in effective ways that allow you eventually to move past it. If you accept a settlement or are awarded a judgment, any financial concerns can be alleviated, leaving you time and energy to focus on your healing, your family, and your future.

Working With The Auto Insurance Company

Working With Insurance After An Accident
If you were recently involved in a car accident, you may have already heard from the insurance company. In fact, most insurance companies will try to work with you as soon as possible after a collision, but not always for the right reasons.

By talking to you early and before you’ve had a chance to understand the true worth of your case, insurance adjusters try to have you settle for a figure often far less than the real value of your case. For this reason, it’s important to first speak with a lawyer.

Unlike insurance companies, an experienced personal injury attorney works with the goal of achieving the highest settlement for you. Don’t settle for less than your case is worth — seek the services of a legal representative today.

Schedule a consultation with a car collision lawyer by calling our office.

Understanding Texas Auto Insurance
Along with approaching insurance negotiations with caution, it’s important to be aware of how your own insurance policy could impact your case. First off, Texas Is a Modified Comparative Negligence Law State With a 51% Bar. We use a modified system of comparative negligence that limits an at-fault driver’s ability to recover damages. Called the 51% bar, this rule says you cannot receive compensation if you were 51% or more to blame for the crash.

Thus, even if you are only partially to blame for an accident, another driver may still take legal action against you. Likewise, under comparative negligence, you can take action against the driver who harmed you.

It’s also important to be aware of the state’s minimum insurance coverage, which requires:

Texas law requires you to have at least $30,000 of coverage for injuries per person, up to a total of $60,000 per accident, and $25,000 of coverage for property damage. This is called 30/60/25 coverage. Think about buying more liability coverage.

If harmed by a hit and run driver, you may also wish to seek legal guidance about adding uninsured motorist coverage to your policy. While this policy add-on may seem beneficial, it’s important to keep in mind that it does not cover damage to your vehicle. This is only covered by collision insurance.

The Texas Insurance Department cannot determine liability after an accident and it is also not given the power to determine the level of fault or negligence after an accident. As such, why trust the insurance company to value the worth of your case?

Helping Victims Receive Fair Compensation
When you trust a lawyer with your personal injury claim, you know you are getting a fair assessment of the worth of your case. Not only can you expect an attorney to carefully research your case to determine its value, but he or she will also keep you informed of what you need to know throughout the legal process.

By collecting evidence, interviewing witnesses, and fully understanding how the accident has harmed you, your lawyer can create a solid case. If the liable party seeks to settle outside of court, your attorney will seek to ensure that any offer is fair and truly reflective of your damages before advising you to sign it. If your case is settled in court through a lawsuit, your lawyer will be prepared and ready to fight for you.

Safety rules for young drivers

Teen drivers in Texas and across the country have the potential to be the best and the worst drivers on road, according to experts. While they often have better reflexes, hearing, and vision than older drivers, they may also be overconfident in their abilities and lack good judgment. The expert offers these tips to teen drivers on driving more safely and avoiding a car accident. Distracted or drunk driving should be avoided by every teen driver. Texting and driving is especially a problem among teens who feel they always need to be connected. However, driving in a car with four or five friends and goofing around instead of paying attention to the road is also extremely dangerous. Similarly, driving under the influence of alcohol can lead to accidents that could have been avoided.

Another important step to take is to maintain a safe distance between the driver’s car and the car in front of it. Using the three-second rule, where the driver counts three seconds from when a driver in front of their car passes a stationary object to when they do, can help reduce the number of rear-end collisions.

Finally, taking safety precautions such as wearing seat belts and equipping airbags in older cars can save teens’ lives. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, many lives would have been saved if everyone aged five and over had been wearing a seat belt at the time of an accident.

These safety tips can be useful for all drivers, no matter their age. However, no matter how safe someone tries to drive, the actions of another can cause an accident. Those who have been victimized by another driver should know that laws may allow them to seek compensation from the driver who caused the accident. The compensation can cover damages that include lost wages, medical expenses, and property damage.

Medtronic Infuse Bone Graft Device Litigation

Problems With the Medtronic Infuse Bone Graft Device Discussed By a Medical Product Liability Attorney
Medtronic’s Infuse bone graft device was designed to assist patients who are recovering from lower-back (lumbar) surgery. Traditionally, patients who underwent this type of surgery have been subject to painful follow-up operations involving bone grafting. In an attempt to avoid this, surgeons implant Medtronic’s device between the vertebrae of the recovering patients to stimulate bone growth. The device is essentially a sponge soaked in a biological “bone-stimulating” agent. Once implanted, it is absorbed into the bones, which in turn grow.

Problems Associated With the Infuse Bone Graft Device
Problems with Medtronic’s device began surfacing around the country almost immediately. More than half of the patients implanted with the Infuse suffered from overgrown bones. The US Food and Drug Administration issued a warning citing life-threatening complications with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein (rhBMP)-the growth-promoting enzyme utilized by Medtronics in their Infuse bone graft device. The FDA cited thirty-eight cases where patients who had received the implants had suffered from swelling of the “neck and throat tissue, which resulted in compression of the airway and/or neurological structures in the neck.”

Legal Issues Affecting Medtronics
Due to the adverse side effects and health risks associated with their Infuse bone graph device and the use of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein, Medtronics has faced intense scrutiny by both government and litigation attorneys, including:

Allegations that the company paid doctors to downplay complications caused by Infuse – the commercial name for Medtronic’s device. The U.S. Senate launched an investigation to determine whether doctors may have downplayed indications of abnormal bone growth and male infertility.

Numerous lawsuits across the country over whether or not Medtronics illegally marketed Infuse for cervical (neck) surgery. Infuse was only approved by the FDA for use in the lumbar region. Marketing a product for anything other than its intended purpose is known as “off-label” marketing and it is an illegal practice.

Victims’ Lawyers Formed Class Action Lawsuits
There appears to be a significant amount of evidence demonstrating that Medtronics acted irresponsibly, and patients have suffered as a result. Additionally, patients’ lives have been placed in jeopardy. If you or a loved one have experienced complications as a result of an Infuse bone graft device implant, you may be entitled to recover damages. Please contact our office for a free consultation.

Closed Head Injuries
A closed head injury is caused by blunt force trauma to the head. These types of head injuries are often the result of a car accident, truck accident, or motorcycle accident.

The effects of a closed head injury (including traumatic brain injury, or TBI) can be significant. Although a brain injury affects each victim differently, many experience memory loss, seizures, sleep problems and decreased cognitive functioning. Ultimately, a brain injury can cause strain on relationships and affect an individual’s ability to work.

Lawyers Focusing on Personal Injury

Spouses, children, parents, grandparents, brothers, and sisters of wrongful death victims may be eligible to recover damages from the person(s) responsible. Wrongful death is a term used to describe a situation where a person is killed as a result of the negligence of another.
At our Law Firm, our lawyers will meet personally with each member of the family to learn as much as they can about what the loss of the family means to the surviving family members.

In the case of motor vehicle accidents, family members may be entitled to immediate death benefits and funeral expenses to assist in immediate expenses arising from their loss.

Claims are often available for the lost income and support as well as, loss of services normally provided by the deceased.

Family members may be entitled to make a claim to recover their losses and damages, including out of pocket expenses reasonably incurred for the benefit of the deceased, a reasonable allowance for travel expenses incurred during the deceased’s treatment or recovery, the provision of nursing, housekeeping, and other service provided to the deceased, a reasonable allowance for loss of income or the value of the aforesaid service.

In addition, there may be a claim to compensate for the loss of guidance, care, and companionship that family members might reasonably have expected to receive had the deceased not been killed.

Premises Liability Claims

Home / Areas of Expertise  /  Premises Liability Claims
Premises liability claims refer to accidents that occur due to negligent maintenance or hazardous conditions upon property owned by someone other than the injured victim. The owner of the premises owes a duty to take such care as in all the circumstances of the case is reasonable to see that persons entering on the premises are reasonably safe while on the premises. Owner’s liability accidents can include but are not limited to slip and fall accidents caused by:

snow and ice
improperly constructed staircases
wet floors
uneven floors
worn carpeting
poor lighting
worn or broken staircases
worn or broken sidewalks or steps
Prompt legal advice and attention to these claims are essential. Often the evidence to establish negligence on the owner of the property will not be available indefinitely. Also, in certain circumstances, the injured victim is required to give notice of their claim to the property owner within days of the incident occurring, or else the claim could be barred forever.

Our attorneys are skilled negotiators with an excellent settlement success rate through alternative dispute resolution, such as mediation and arbitration. However, where a trial may be necessary, we have a team of experienced trial lawyers with proven trial expertise.

Short Term Disability Benefits

Home / Areas of Expertise  /  Short Term Disability Benefits
If you have purchased a disability plan or work for a company that includes a disability plan in their benefits package then you have made a responsible and intelligent decision. These plans are your protection against unforeseen injury, accident and illness. However, many insured individuals are surprised by how difficult it can be to apply and collect benefits. Insurance companies are in business to make a profit. It makes business sense for them to delay or deny claims.

Our attorneys have handled hundreds of disability claims successfully. We can help with the application or appeal process and help get you the benefits you need quickly. We have the knowledge and resources to get the job done. If the insurer has treated you in bad faith, you may be entitled to punitive or aggravated damages in addition to your monthly benefits.

Our Law Firm realizes that at a time when you are unable to work due to injury or illness your financial resources will be compromised. That is why in almost all cases we will work on a contingency fee basis, which means you do not have to pay any money until your case is settled or successfully won at trial.

Our attorneys are skilled negotiators with an excellent settlement success rate through alternative dispute resolution, such as mediation and arbitration. However, where a trial may be necessary, we have a team of experienced trial lawyers with proven trial expertise.

Our firm has an admirable record of successful trial results and settlements for their clients and has the respect of insurance companies, Mediators, Arbitrators and Judges. We have earned the respect of our colleagues and they frequently refer us their complex insurance cases.

Car Accident Attorney

No one anticipates being in an auto accident. The shock of being hit by another car or striking someone else with your vehicle can prevent you from taking the proper steps to protect yourself. The advice of a good auto accident attorney can be invaluable to you at this time, particularly if you have to deal with insurance company adjusters. If you are involved in a car crash, the best thing you can do is call an experienced car accident attorney to help guide you through the process.

Understanding Auto Accident Laws in Texas
If you aren’t familiar with Texas auto accident laws, you may end up doing things to harm your case without even realizing it. For example, many clients do not realize that the insurance company does not work for them. Though you pay the premiums, they are not like a doctor or an attorney, who is in business to try and help you. The insurance company is in business to make money, and part of the way they do so is by offering you as little as possible for your claim. Speaking to an insurance adjuster is not mandatory under auto accident laws, nor is it a good idea.

Instead of taking that risk, simply notify your insurer that you have been in an accident, and let one of our attorneys do the negotiating for you. With many years as successful trial attorneys under our belt, we are up to speed on every nuance of the auto accident laws in Texas. We can offer you our services to help you mediate a settlement with an insurance company, or to help you should the case come to trial.

Reasonable Fees for our Attorney Services
With our client-based fee system, our services are affordable for everyone. Contact us to find out more about how we make our services affordable for clients throughout Texas.

Car Accident Attorneys

Our car accident attorneys are aware of just how many Americans rely on their cars to get them where they need to go. Unfortunately, while automobiles are almost necessary to get us from place to place, they also place those who use them in considerable danger. In fact, every year millions of Americans are injured in car accidents. In some cases, these accidents are no one’s fault, but rather the unfortunate result of circumstances beyond anyone’s control. However, far more often, car accidents are caused by recklessness or negligence on the part of one or more parties.

Those who have been involved in a car accident often must cope with significant consequences that can affect nearly every aspect of their lives. Among other consequences, car accident victims typically must seek costly medical care, spend time away from work while recovering from their injuries, and pay for the damages to their vehicle. All of these consequences can exert a serious toll on the financial resources of the accident victim and their family.

If you or someone you know has suffered an injury in a car accident caused by another person, you shouldn’t have to pay for the consequences on your own. Fortunately, with the help of an experienced attorney, you may be able to get the compensation you need in the aftermath of this unfortunate circumstance. Contact our car accident lawyers today to speak with a qualified legal professional about the details of your case and learn more about the legal options that may be available to you in this situation.

Our Practice Areas
Car accidents can occur in a wide variety of different ways, and it’s important to have an attorney who understands what it takes to represent these different types of cases in order to ensure that your case has the greatest possible likelihood of a favorable outcome. At our Law Firm, we are prepared to help those whose cases involve:

Truck/18-wheeler Accidents
Motorcycle Accidents

Auto Defects

Contact Us
Drivers who cause others to suffer as a result of their own irresponsible behavior need to be held accountable for the consequences that their actions have had.

Truck Accident Lawyers

While large commercial trucks fill highways, interstates, and other public roadways, transporting billions of dollars worth of goods across the country every day, our truck accident lawyers are all too aware of the serious threat these large vehicles can pose to other motorists on the road. Because of their considerable size, any accident involving an 18-wheeler or other large truck is often far more devastating in its consequences than a typical car accident would be, potentially leaving drivers with life-altering physical damages or worse.

Aside from the pain and suffering that may be caused by the injuries resulting from a truck accident, there are many other consequences with which accident victims may have to cope. Among other repercussions, these often include expensive medical bills from treatment for the injury, both in the immediate aftermath and later on if physical rehabilitation is necessary, as well as potentially substantial losses of income, either from time spent away from work recovering or permanently reduced earning potential.

No one should have to pay for these types of consequences by themselves. If you or someone you know has been the victim of a truck accident that was caused by the reckless or negligent actions of someone else, you may be entitled to seek compensation for your losses and suffering. Contact our truck attorney today to speak with a qualified legal professional about the details of your case. We make it our priority to fight aggressively to protect the rights and interests of our clients when they are going through such a situation.

Truck Accident Injuries
Truck accident injuries may be caused in a number of different ways. The most significant cause is typically the impact of the accident itself. However, there are other issues relating to truck accidents that may have the potential to cause serious physical harm to the accident’s victims, including fires that may occur as a result of fuel tank explosions and exacerbation of injuries due to the attempts of medics to remove injury victims from the scene of the accident.

The actual injuries which may occur as a result of an accident with a large commercial truck can vary significantly. However, some of the most common truck accident injuries include the following:

Severe contusions
Broken bones
Internal organ damage
Severe burns
Spinal cord injuries
Traumatic brain injury
The consequences that these and other types of injuries caused by a trucking accident can have a devastating effect on the lives of those who are affected. Whether you have suffered these or any other types of truck accident injuries, our team of experienced legal professionals may be able to help you fight for the justice you are seeking.

Contact Us
If you or someone you know has suffered injuries in a truck accident caused by another person’s negligence, the responsible party should be the one to bear the burden of their actions. Contact our truck accident lawyers today to discuss your case with an experienced member of our legal team and find out how we may be able to help you hold these individuals liable for their transgressions.

Speeding Accident Lawyers

Speed limits are put in place for a reason; these limits are supposed to provide drivers with the maximum safe speed that allows traffic to flow at a steady rate while avoiding unnecessary dangers to motorists and pedestrians alike. When drivers violate these limits, their reckless speeding puts everyone else on the road at risk. If these drivers’ dangerous decisions result in a collision, we believe they should be held responsible for whatever injuries their poor judgment caused.

If you or someone you love has sustained an injury because of a driver’s thoughtless speeding, we have the skills and experience to fight for the justice and compensation you may deserve. To learn more about your rights and options after a car accident and how we may be able to protect your interests, contact our speeding accident attorneys today.

The Dangers of Excessive Speeding
Speeding accidents, especially those with drivers exceeding the designated speed limits greatly, can be extremely dangerous and cause devastating injuries to those involved. These accidents may be particularly common in the following instances:

Speeding when road conditions are slick or otherwise unsafe
Speeding through a turn or into a corner
Speeding through otherwise slow-moving traffic
Speeding through a pedestrian area or crosswalk
Speeding through a school zone
Motorists and pedestrians suffer all too often because of speeding driver’s errors. As such, when they cause you or a loved one harm, they deserve to be held accountable for their recklessness and its ensuing repercussions.

Contact Us
An injury caused by a speeding driver may leave you and your family with considerable financial burdens due to medical bills, out-of-pocket expenses, and lost wages. You don’t need to suffer from these injuries and expenses alone, however. Our speeding accident lawyers are dedicated to supporting the victims of speeding accidents and may be able to help you. Call us today to discuss your situation with an understanding and skilled attorney.

Bicycle Accidents

Bicycle Accident Lawyer – FREE CONSULTATIONS • CALL TOLL-FREE • HABLAMOS ESPAÑOL!
People come to Texas from all over the world to enjoy our beautiful scenery and wonderful weather. It’s no wonder people like to get out and bike — yet there are very few dedicated bike paths. Most bicyclists have to risk sharing the road with cars.

For hundreds of bicyclists every year, taking that risk results in serious injury. Vehicles pull out in front of cyclists before the biker has a chance to stop. Cars hit bikers at corners when they fail to double-check that they have room to turn. Cars and trucks even run over bicyclists. For more than 100 Texas bike riders each year, a bike ride ends in death.

Don’t let a bicycle accident derail your future. Hire an attorney with the experience and skill needed to get you the fair compensation you deserve. Call toll-free for a free initial consultation.

Our Law Firm has highly experienced injury attorneys. In our almost 25 years of practicing personal injury law, we have secured a number of verdicts and settlements of over $1 million dollars.

Common bike accident injuries include knee and leg injuries where a car collided with the biker, collarbone and shoulder injuries if the cyclist hit the hood or windshield of a car and brain injuries caused by a cyclist being thrown into the roadway.

WHAT IF THE BIKER WASN’T WEARING A HELMET?
Under Texas law, bicyclists aren’t legally required to wear a helmet. However, if you suffered a head injury and you weren’t wearing a helmet, you could be found “comparatively negligent” for your injuries. That means that you have some degree of fault for the severity of your injury. Your final settlement could be reduced by the amount of fault assigned to you.

WHO WILL PAY THE BILLS?
If the bicyclist also owns a car — or the injured biker was a child and someone in the household owns a car and has insurance — your personal injury protection (PIP) policy on your car insurance is intended to cover your medical bills. If you do not own a car, the PIP coverage of the person who injured you typically covers your injuries.

Emergency Rooms Errors

In the unfortunate event of a medical emergency, you need to rely on hospital emergency room care to treat your injuries or save your life. Unfortunately, medical errors and malpractice happen more frequently than they should. If you received incorrect medical treatment and your condition became worse, or if you lost a loved one due to an emergency room error, it is important to find an experienced emergency room malpractice attorney with proven results to represent you in your claim.

Some common emergency room errors include:

Inaccurate diagnosis of a patient’s illness
Prescribing the wrong medication
Misreading tests or X-rays
Failure to order the proper tests
Sometimes patients come into the emergency room with serious medical conditions like strokes, meningitis, or heart attack, but are mistakenly diagnosed with a less serious illness and sent home. Medical errors like these can be fatal and can be grounds for a wrongful death claim. Another common error is when a doctor prescribes the wrong type of medication or wrong dosage or fails to give adequate instructions upon discharging the patient. Emergency room errors also happen if a doctor misinterprets a patient’s test results and x-rays, leading to incorrect medical care. Sadly, these preventable errors can result in serious injury or death.

Our Law Office can represent you in your negligence or wrongful death claim and help you recover compensation for your injuries. For the past 25 years, our emergency room malpractice lawyers have achieved major legal victories for clients who have been the victims of medical negligence and emergency room errors.

Improperly Treated Strokes – Every Second Counts

MEDICAL MALPRACTICE • MISDIAGNOSIS OF STROKE • FAILURE TO DIAGNOSE
When a stroke hits, every second counts. Oxygen stops flowing to the brain, and irreversible damage is done with every second that passes. If a doctor fails to recognize the obvious warning signs of stroke – it might be malpractice.

Our experienced attorneys have an excellent reputation for handling litigation that arises from mishandled strokes. If you were harmed, or a loved one was, by a doctor’s improper treatment, our office toll-free for a free consultation.

DON’T IGNORE THE WARNING SIGNS OF STROKE!
Most people at risk for a stroke understand the warning signs. Since strokes are fairly common, it only follows that a doctor should be able to recognize the warning signs, too. You and your doctor should both be on high alert whenever you see the following symptoms:

Dizziness
Headache
Loss of vision in one eye
Numbness going down into one extremity (like a hand or finger)
Nausea
Once the warning signs begin to appear, the patient has three hours to receive the drug tPA, which stands for “Tissue Plasminogen Activator.” Otherwise, the stroke victim will suffer severe irreversible damage. If tPA is never administered, the consequences may be devastating.

When doctors miss these obvious warning signs, the results can be fatal. In some cases, the oversight may be so egregious as to constitute negligence.

If you or a loved one suffered harm as the result of a doctor’s negligence, call toll-free to schedule a free initial consultation.

Premises Liability

Premises Liability Attorney – SLIP AND FALL • TRIP AND FALL • INADEQUATE SECURITY
Property owners have the duty to make sure that their property is safe. Whether that means maintaining tight security or just keeping the floor cleared of trip hazards, any injuries caused by property conditions can be grounds for a premises liability lawsuit.

FREE CONSULTATIONS • HABLAMOS ESPAÑOL!
For a free consultation at our Law Office call us toll-free.

Our firm has handled personal injury cases for many years. Our tenacious, reputable advocates can be reached 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. All clients receive their attorney’s personal cell phone number.

INJURIES FROM INADEQUATE SECURITY
As the economy has tightened, the owners of apartment complexes, parking garages, and other properties have cut back on security as a way to save money. Of course, this is unacceptable – if they needed a security system before, why don’t they need one now?

There’s no real limit to the damage a criminal can do to a victim. Providing inadequate security is a blatant example of landowners putting profits before people.

“SLIP AND FALL” OR “TRIP AND FALL” ACCIDENTS
Restaurants, grocery stores, shopping malls, big-box retailers, motels – all of these places advertise to attract customers in droves. It’s their responsibility to make sure that their stores are safe. Slippery floors, poorly lit stairwells, cluttered hallways, and other hazards can endanger their customers’ health and lives.

If you’ve been injured, call our office toll-free for a free consultation to discuss premises liability lawsuits.

Rollover Accidents

Texas Rollover Accident Lawyer – FREE CONSULTATIONS • CALL TOLL-FREE • ¡HABLAMOS ESPAÑOL!
A rollover accident can be the result of a number of situations. For example, a T-bone collision at an intersection can knock a vehicle onto its side. A sideswipe impact that runs a car off the road can cause it to flip. However they occur, rollover accidents can cause some of the most catastrophic injuries of any type of car accident.

If you’ve been injured in a rollover accident, or if a loved one died when a car or light truck rolled over, contact our law office toll-free for a free initial consultation.

THOROUGH INVESTIGATION OF EVERY PERSONAL INJURY CASE
Our legal team ensures that all evidence is gathered and all witnesses are interviewed to determine the cause of the rollover accident and our client’s injuries.

Our determination to ensure our clients get the medical care they need means we never settle for less money than they deserve.

GETTING YOU MAXIMUM COMPENSATION FOR SERIOUS INJURIES
Brain damage and crushing head injuries can result if the roof of the vehicle caves in during a rollover. If a passenger or driver was not wearing a seatbelt, they may be ejected from the vehicle when it rolls, causing broken bones, spinal cord injury, paralysis, or quadriplegia.

We help our injured clients access medical experts who can help them get an accurate diagnosis and the right kind of therapy to reach maximum physical recovery. Some people will never achieve full physical recovery and will need ongoing medical care or help with daily life tasks — if that happens, we will fight to make sure the compensation our clients receive covers those costs today and into the future.

Spinal Cord Injury

Spinal cord injuries are among the most serious traumatic injuries that can occur, and the consequences on your life can be devastating. An experienced spinal cord injury attorney understands the nature of these injuries and can help you get the compensation you need and deserve.

Every year in the United States, there are about 11,000 people (30 per day) who suffer a spinal cord injury. Some common causes of spinal cord injuries are motor vehicle accidents, slip and falls, sports injuries, disease, or violent acts. Injuries to the spinal cord often happen after a traumatic blow that dislocates or fractures vertebrae in the spine. Some signs of a spinal cord injury can include loss of muscle function, severe pain in the back and neck area, numbness, spasms, reduced sexual function, and/or incontinence. Sometimes a person who has suffered a spinal cord injury does not know he or she has a permanent condition and does little to treat it. However, in the case of a spinal injury, the patient needs specialized medical treatment for a successful recovery.

Unfortunately, spinal cord injuries are serious and often result in paralysis. Paraplegia paralysis means that the paralysis is in the lower body and legs, while quadriplegia paralysis refers to paralysis in the entire area below the neck. Individuals with spinal cord injuries often never fully recover and need special assistance for the rest of their lives.

If you or someone you love has suffered a spinal cord injury due to the negligence of another, it is crucial to find an experienced personal injury attorney who can competently represent you. Our Law Office has successfully represented clients for the past 25 years. Our spinal cord injury lawyers have won significant legal victories for clients who have suffered from traumatic spinal cord injuries.

At our Law Office, we always try to obtain the maximum level of compensation possible for each client. We believe in thorough preparation and we do extensive research of hospital records and work with medical experts to build the strongest case possible. We believe in providing the highest quality, proactive legal representation for you. Our initial consultations are always free, and all of our clients receive their attorney’s personal cell phone number so that they can feel free to contact him 24 hours a day, 7 days a week throughout the representation.

If you or a loved one has suffered a spinal cord injury because of someone else’s negligence, contact our Law Office right away. You can reach our office by calling toll-free to set up a free initial consultation with an experienced spinal cord injury attorney.
