INSURANCE ADJUSTERS WILL TRY TO PAY YOU AS LITTLE AS POSSIBLE.
Before you accept any offers from the insurance company, please give me a call. As a personal injury attorney, my job is to help you get fully and fairly compensated for your injuries — in fact, I don’t get paid unless I succeed in helping you collecting payment. Insurance adjusters, on the other hand, are paid to do the exact opposite — that is, to pay you as little as possible.
Understanding Texas Personal Injury Law
-
YOU HAVE A TIME LIMIT
Texas has a two-year statute of limitations for personal injury cases, which means you have two years to take legal action after getting hurt. That may sound like a lot of time, but filing your claim takes time. Act now to ensure you don’t miss your opportunity to get paid.
-
You Can Be Partially at Fault
In Texas, it’s possible to get paid for an injury if you are found to be less than 50% responsible for the accident that led to the injury. For example, if you were in a car wreck and the court calculated that you were 25% at fault for the accident, you could still receive up to 75% of the total settlement.

You Can Choose Your Lawyer
Although you are not required to get a lawyer to file a personal injury claim, having an attorney can save you a great deal of time, stress, and money. To reduce your stress during this difficult time, I’m happy to offer free consultations, work on contingency, and personally answer all your questions.

Personal Injuries I Handle
Car Accidents
Whether it involves a semi-truck, motorcycle, bicycle, pedestrian, drunk driver, or another passenger vehicle, I have the experience needed to handle your claim.
Slip and Falls
If someone has failed to keep their property safe for visitors, you could get compensated for the resulting slip and fall accident. Call me to discuss the details.
Industrial Accidents
Industrial accidents can cause burns, electrocution, brain injuries, seizures, internal bleeding, disfigurement, and much more. Let me help you seek compensation.
Toxic Exposure
Exposure to harmful toxins like mold, lead paint, ammonia, and asbestos can lead to serious harm. I fight to help you cover the resulting medical bills and more.
Jones Act Litigation
The Jones Act provides medical and financial benefits to injured seaworkers. If you were hurt working on a boat, other vessel, or offshore drilling rig, contact me.
Catastrophic Injuries
Broken bones, knee injuries, back injuries, brain injuries, and paralysis are all considered “catastrophic.” I take these cases very seriously on behalf of my clients.
Amputations
If you or a loved one lost an arm, leg, hand, foot, finger(s), toe(s), or any other body part in an accident that was caused by someone else, please allow me to fight for you.
Wrongful Death
When a spouse or family member is killed in an accident, no amount of payment can make that loss alright. However, filing for wrongful death can protect others from the same fate.
Medical Malpractice
Doctors and other medical professionals must be extremely careful in order to avoid harmful mistakes. If your physician’s error resulted in an injury or death, contact me for help.
