INJURED IN AN ACCIDENT ON SOMEONE ELSE’S PROPERTY? WE CAN HELP.
Premises liability is a term used to refer to a certain area of personal injury law that involves accidents and injuries that occur on another person’s property. In certain situations, the property owner or manager may be held liable for injuries that occur on their property, if these injuries occurred as a result of their negligence. For example, a property owner may fail to conduct routine inspections and may therefore leave a hazardous condition (such as a missing stair) unfixed, causing a customer or patron to fall. Injuries sustained in this fall may qualify the injured victim to file a premises liability claim or lawsuit in order to seek financial damages.
Would you like to learn more about premises liability claims? Our Personal Injury Law Firm can talk to you about your legal options and your ability to recover money that will help you begin rebuilding and moving on even during difficult times. Your initial consultation is free, and we take on all types of premises liability claims in the area, including:
Slip and fall accidents
Trip and fall accidents
Injuries from falling objects
Construction site injuries
Dog bites
Negligent security
Recovering Money for a Premises Liability Claim
In some situations, it may be difficult to successfully prove property owner liability in a claim of this kind. You will need to prove that the owner of the property was responsible in some way, and if there is no evidence to support this it may be increasingly difficult to get the money you rightfully deserve. This is why it is important to consider working with a premises liability attorney who has the resources to properly investigate your claim and build an aggressive legal strategy that represents your side of the story. Our Personal Injury Law Firm can provide you with the level of legal counsel you need in these cases.

PRODUCT LIABILITY
Product liability claims result from defective products. The claim involves the liability of anyone involved in the manufacture of the product, from the manufacturer or design of component parts, to the assembling manufacturer, to wholesalers and retailers.
Food, blood drugs, medical devices, appliances, automobiles, tobacco, a bicycle — if any product contains an inherent defect that causes harm to the consumer, some party in the chain of manufacture, distribution and final sale may be liable. If so, you may be entitled to compensation.
Product liability claims are based on any combination of three theories, or counts: negligence, breach of implied and express warranty, and strict liability.
In a product liability case, the product must be proven defective. For a product to be considered defective, it must have either design defects, manufacturing defects or defects in marketing. It is irrelevant if anyone in the manufacturing and distribution chain exercised great care to prevent injury — what is relevant is if the product contained a defect that caused harm. (This is called a strict liability.)
Product liability law is expansive, incorporating both individual injury and massive class-action lawsuits. If you’ve been injured by a product, please contact our Personal Injury Law Firm today!

RAILROAD ACCIDENTS
A railroad accident can be catastrophic causing injuries to the driver and passengers, and exposing the general public to hazardous materials. These accidents are almost always deadly and many lives are often affected.
Common reasons for railroad accidents:
Unprotected railroad crossings
Mechanical malfunction
Engineer error
The first step after a railroad accident is determining fault. If the train owner or operator acted negligently — even in the case of indirect damage — a railroad accident attorney at our Personal Injury Law Firm will help you obtain the largest financial settlement possible.
RAILROAD ACCIDENT FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
I heard that railroad accidents are governed by different laws than other accidents. Is this true?
While it is true that the Federal Employers Liability Act (FELA) governs injuries occurring to on-duty railroad workers, not all lawsuits involving railroad accidents are brought by employees against the employer railroad.
Can I bring a successful wrongful death claim against the railroad if a relative was killed because he was on the railroad tracks?
Just because your relative was on the tracks does not mean that the railroad operator, conductor, or company were not negligent. The success of a wrongful death claim depends on what facts are available. Our experienced railroad accident attorneys will know how to file your claim after your initial consultation.
What rights do I have if I have been injured in a train accident?
Any person or any entity responsible for a train accident can be held responsible for the injuries they cause.
For more information about railroad accident injuries and what can be done on your behalf, please contact the railroad accident attorney at our Personal Injury Law Firm for a free consultation.

WE CAN HELP YOU WITH YOUR SEVERE INJURY
The legal issues surrounding severe injury are as varied as the types of accidents that cause them. Whether on private or public land, in a business or a residence, there are negligence acts, malfunctions, and other situations which can result in you becoming hurt through no fault of your own.
Injuries resulting from falls are common. Sometimes, these and other injuries — such as spinal cord, brain, and neck injury — emerge slowly, over time. These are the injuries that insurance companies tend to fight you on. You’re better off having a severe injury attorney on your side. Our Personal Injury Law Firm understands the medical nature of personal injury claims. We will determine liability and aggressively pursue your case.

SEVERE INJURIES FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What are the most common causes of severe injuries?
A severe back, neck, or brain injury is commonly caused by car accidents, falls, or result from sports injuries. Regardless of the cause, these injuries can lead to very serious problems if they are not addressed in a timely manner.
What are some signs of brain injury?
People who suffer brain injuries may or may not exhibit any symptoms. A brain injury victim may be forgetful or become easily confused. However, a brain injury victim may not seem completely normal and eventually suffer irreversible harm. If you or a loved one has any of these symptoms after an accident, seek medical help immediately.
I was recently involved in a car accident. I hurt my neck, but it doesn’t seem that bad. Should I wait to see if it gets worse before I visit a doctor?
As an injury attorney, if you have hurt your neck, I would advise you to get it checked out right away. You may be doing more damage by not seeing a doctor.

SPINAL CORD INJURY VICTIMS
If the brain is the control center for the body, the spinal cord is the means by which messages are sent back and forth, controlling bodily function, movement, and also the sense of feeling. When the spinal cord is injured, no matter how slightly, this may result in lasting damage that will affect a person’s ability to move, control his or her body, and perform daily activities. This is why spinal cord injuries are one of the most severe types of injuries a person may sustain.
At our Personal Injury Law Firm, our experienced attorneys assist clients throughout Texas who have suffered spinal cord injury in an accident or as a result of medical malpractice or a defective product. We can handle all types of personal injury claims in this regard, even those that stem from intentional wrongdoing, as in the case of an attack or assault. Our Personal Injury Law Firm offers a free consultation with a spinal cord injury professional attorney at our firm and is standing by to see how we can help you.
About Spinal Cord Injuries
Depending on the case, a spinal cord injury may result from physical trauma that damages the vertebrae in the spine or the surrounding tissue or blood vessels. A car accident, motorcycle accident, truck accident, slip and fall, trip and fall, or sports accident may cause damage to the spinal cord. Typically, a victim will suffer from weakness and sensory loss at and below the point where the spinal cord is damaged. The extent of damage the spinal cord suffers may vary from mild to severe and will affect the body accordingly. Some consequences of spinal cord injury may include:
Difficulty breathing
Loss of normal bowel/bladder control
Loss of feeling
Pain
Weakness
Partial or complete paralysis

TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY
Traumatic brain injury, or TBI, is a complex physical injury that may have a broad range of symptoms and associated disabilities. Because the brain is the control center of the body, the impact on an individual and his or her personality, memories and ability to perform day-to-day activities may be severe. A traumatic brain injury may result in lifelong medical care or the need for assisted living. Many injuries to the brain are currently incurable.
According to the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), approximately 50,000 people die from traumatic brain injuries each year, and another 85,000 suffer from long-term disability. In the United States today, it is estimated that over 5.3 million people are living with traumatic brain injuries. That number only includes patients admitted to hospitals for treatment, not those treated in an emergency room or doctor’s office.
What Causes a Traumatic Brain Injury?
There are three main causes of traumatic brain injury in the U.S.: vehicle accidents, firearm injuries, and falls. In any of these three categories, a victim may have grounds for a personal injury claim against the person who caused the incident. In the case of a car accident, truck accident or motorcycle accident, it may be another driver or even the manufacturer of an auto part if this led to the accident. In cases involving firearms, intentional wrongdoing may be grounds for a personal injury claim. For slip and fall or trip and fall accidents, or falls related to construction sites or the workplace, you may be able to file a workers’ compensation claim against your employer or a lawsuit against the owner of the property where the accident occurred.
Regardless of your particular case, our Personal Injury Law Firm can meet with you to talk about your case and your options in taking legal action. It is our goal to help you recover the financial compensation you need to rebuild your life.

INVOLVED IN A TRUCK ACCIDENT?
Have you or someone you love been injured in a truck accident? At our Personal Injury Law Firm, our attorneys are dedicated to helping those individuals who have been injured or who have lost a loved one in trucking accidents. In these cases, a victim may be able to bring a civil lawsuit against the party who caused the accident, whether this is the driver of the truck, the trucking company, an auto part manufacturer, or another driver. Depending on the particular situation, a truck accident victim may be able to recover financial compensation for medical care, lost earnings, property damage, and much more.
With the support and legal representation of a competent and professional lawyer who has the resources to fully investigate every angle of your accident and injuries and the experience to build an effective legal strategy, you may have the opportunity to recover complete financial compensation. The value of a specific truck accident claim will vary depending on the specific accident, particularly on the extent of injury sustained and the impact the injury or injuries will have on various aspects of the victim’s life. It is true that this money cannot erase all traces of the collision or actually “compensate” a victim for what he or she has had to experience. It can, however, help him or her start the process of rebuilding and moving on to a more secure future.
Truck Accidents Are Common
Truck accidents are traffic accidents that involve one or more large trucks, vehicles that have a gross total weight of 10,000 or more pounds. Some commercial trucks may weigh up to 80,000 pounds or more and may be up to 75 feet long and over 8 feet wide. As you can imagine, any collision between a large truck and another vehicle has the potential to be catastrophic, causing serious injury to any parties involved and resulting in extensive damage to the smaller vehicle. The party most likely to be injured in a collision with a large truck is the occupant of another vehicle or any non-occupant involved, such as a pedestrian or bicycle rider.
Trucking accidents may have different causes, similar to the leading causes of all traffic accidents throughout the U.S.: driver negligence, speeding, drunk driving and driving while distracted. Trucks may have the added risk of a collision caused by an improperly loaded or overloaded truck, poor truck maintenance or poor road or weather conditions. The large size and weight of a truck makes it more easily impacted by heavy weather and hazardous roadways, as well as by negligent actions on the part of the truck driver or other drivers on the road.
For years, our Personal Injury Law Firm has been representing accident and injury victims. We are fully dedicated to our clients and take the time to provide each person with the personalized attention and care they deserve. When you work with a truck accident attorney at our firm, you can rest assured that your case is in good hands.

TYPES OF TRUCK ACCIDENTS
There are various types of truck accidents, any of which may cause serious injury as well as extensive property damage.

A lawyer at our firm may be able to bring a lawsuit against the driver of the truck, the trucking company, or even the government if the vehicle is owned or operated by a government agency. Our Personal Injury Law Firm will take time to get to the bottom of the matter and conduct a thorough investigation in order to determine exactly what your claim should be worth as well as how to prove that you were not to blame for the accident.
CAUSES OF TRUCKING ACCIDENTS
A truck accident may be caused by one or more of three primary factors: negligence on the part of another driver, negligence on the part of the truck driver or trucking company or external factors (heavy weather, defective truck part, etc.) Were you injured in truck accident caused by any of these factors? If so, our Personal Injury Law Firm can help. We are dedicated to helping victims and families of victims recover the financial compensation they deserve.
Following are some examples of causes of trucking accidents:
A motorist driving in a truck driver’s blind spot for an extended period of time;
A motorist changing lanes abruptly in front of a large truck;
A motorist bringing his or her car to the right of a truck that is making a right turn;
Improper merging on a highway or freeway by the truck driver or another motorist;
Unsafe or improper passing;
Speeding;
Drunk driving;
Driving while distracted;
Driving a truck that is overloaded or improperly loaded, making it more difficult to maneuver;
A truck that is improperly maintained;
Defective truck or auto parts;
Heavy weather, such as wind, fog, snow, rain or hail; and
Dangerous road conditions.
No matter what caused the truck accident that led to your injuries, it is important to involve an attorney. Even if you feel responsible for causing the collision, you may be surprised to find that it was actually the other driver’s fault or may be attributed to some factor outside of your control. An attorney experienced in handling truck accident claims can properly determine what caused your accident, what your claim is worth and who should be held accountable.

How To Make Accident Law Work In Your Favor
If you’ve been unfortunate enough to have been injured as a result of an accident then you have certain obligations. For example, if this happens at work, you are duty-bound to report it and the first place you should turn in this case is normally the accident book which the majority of employers are required to maintain. Your employer will want to know all the details involved as they are in turn required to report such incidents to the Health and Safety Executive in most cases. A lot of information is gathered here to try and ensure that these accidents don’t happen again, as well.
If you are injured as a result of a traffic accident, it has to be reported to the police. This is an important part of accident law and will also help to determine who is at fault, who may be prosecuted as a result, and/or who may be found to be responsible for the payment of compensation in a qualified court of law.
You should remember that any accident that causes injury will usually have repercussions. The other party may be found to be criminally negligent for example and this might involve a complaint being brought to bear against that party by the criminal justice system. However, quite apart from such situations, you will invariably find that you may need to take action yourself to get compensation for the injuries, loss of earnings, and pain and anguish that you have suffered as a result. This is why it’s important to make some of these formal reports, to get documentation to help back up your case.
You need as much evidence as you can possibly gather, photographs from the scene of an accident, the details of eyewitnesses, and statements made by them. While you may be comforted by the presence of law enforcement at the scene of the accident, or by the attention given to your situation by safety personnel or trade union representatives at work, understand that you must take the responsibility yourself for gathering the information necessary to safeguard your position.
As soon as you can, consult with a personal injury attorney who is experienced in accident law relevant to your case. You can never have too much information in this situation. Once again, you should not rely on official reports or the interests of relevant government officials. Some of the reports that they are able to provide could be advantageous when it comes to your pursuit of compensation, but the information that you gather may well constitute the primary basis of your case.
It’s understandable that you may be dramatically affected, stressed, and preoccupied in the immediate aftermath of an accident causing injury. It’s important that you do whatever you can to guarantee the integrity of the relevant information and ensure that eyewitnesses are immediately contacted to make sure that they will come forward to help you at some future date.
By taking the right action at the moment of the incident you can help to ensure that accident law will come to your rescue, and help support you down the road.
