Injuries often have a tendency of taking time to fully show, if at all. Our Texas personal injury attorneys know this from experience. Because of this, it can be difficult to estimate the financial and emotional strain an injury will inflict upon you. We strongly recommend calling our Texas injury attorneys.

For most personal injury cases, we never charge a fee unless you collect. We handle these cases on a contingency fee basis, meaning that you will not have to pay us a penny unless there is a settlement or a final verdict at trial. Our fee is a percentage of your recovery. We will advance all the costs associated with obtaining a successful verdict.

What are case costs?

These are costs we pay out to others to get your case ready for trial. Examples would be filing fees, fees for obtaining medical records, expenses for depositions and experts. Costs will vary depending on the complexity of each individual case.

Remember that if our firm does not recover anything for you, you are not responsible for paying back the case costs to us.

How much money is my case worth?

Every case is different. We have to examine various factors to help assess value. These factors include liability, the extent of your injury, future medical problems, the amount of your medical bills, lost income, as well as future medical expenses and future lost income. The final evaluation will also involve the ability of the other party to pay a judgment. more information on this website

DUI FAQs

Can you decide whether or not you will take a breath test? Should you take the breath test?

Certain amounts of alcohol could remain (a recent sip of alcohol, mouthwash, gum, mints, etc.) in your mouth that could register as false positives on the breath test. If you have not had anything to drink you should take a breath test if asked.
