You receive the quality medical attention you need from local providers near where you live or work.

You are the boss, and we will respond quickly to your requests for case updates and assistance. We guarantee that when you need to speak to your counsel, you will speak directly to your counsel, not to a paralegal or secretary, because that’s the way it should be.

To bolster the success of your claim, certain critical elements must be proven by a “preponderance of the evidence,” meaning that it’s more likely than not that the other party’s negligence caused your injuries. Here’s what we examine:
To establish legal liability, it is crucial to demonstrate that the defendant owed you a duty of care. In simple terms, a “duty of care” requires acting with reasonable caution in situations where harm to someone else is foreseeable.
Consider your doctor; they owe you a duty of care due to their specialized knowledge and training. On the other hand, asking a grocery store clerk about allergens in a product generally wouldn’t result in a personal injury claim since they aren’t expected to provide medical advice.
The next step is proving that the negligent party breached their duty of care. This can be particularly challenging, especially in medical malpractice cases. Essentially, you need to show that the at-fault party acted unreasonably in a given situation.
For example, while driving, you have a duty to operate your vehicle in a safe manner that doesn’t jeopardize others. Texting while driving and causing an accident would likely constitute a breach of this duty. However, swerving to avoid road debris and causing an accident would generally be considered a reasonable response.
You must also establish that the breach of duty resulted in your injuries. Insurers may attempt to argue that your injuries were caused by something unrelated.
For instance, they might claim that your current injuries resulted from a previous accident. Our personal injury lawyers are skilled at refuting such claims and demonstrating that your injuries were indeed a consequence of the at-fault party’s negligence.
In Texas, a short two-year “statute of limitations” dictates that you must file your legal claim within two years of your accident. Failure to do so could result in your claim being dismissed by the court if you attempt to file it later.
While two years may seem like a long time, in the legal realm, it’s quite limited. Filing your claim promptly is advisable, as it allows for easier evidence collection and prevents the at-fault party from building a stronger defense.
Texan law permits some imperfection, but it’s essential to steer clear of certain errors. For instance, posting anything on social media, regardless of how innocent it seems, can be detrimental. Insurers may exploit such content against you.
Additionally, Texas follows a “partial fault” system, which means that you can be held partially responsible for your injuries. In such cases, the amount the at-fault party owes you is reduced based on your level of responsibility. Hence, consulting with a personal injury lawyer early on is wise, as they can guide you on avoiding mistakes and help you maximize your claim’s value.
Witness our legal expertise in action by exploring the following success story, showcasing how we helped a client secure a $962,500.00 settlement for a neck injury sustained in a commercial truck accident:
The incident occurred as a truck driver was traveling westbound on US 287. However, a lapse in attention led to an unsafe lane change, resulting in a collision with another motorist who suffered a neck injury. Notably, this motorist had a significant spinal surgery in her medical history.
Regrettably, insurance companies often use pre-existing conditions as a means to minimize their financial obligations. We foresaw the possibility that they would argue that some of the injuries sustained were linked to the prior major spine surgery.
While it is possible that a prior surgery could impact current injuries, Texas law adheres to a principle known as “The Eggshell Doctrine.” This legal doctrine dictates that the plaintiff should be taken as they are, meaning they should be compensated for all injuries resulting from the accident, even if pre-existing conditions exacerbate those injuries.
To secure a favorable outcome for our client, Shane Mullen recommended a comprehensive record of any new or exacerbated symptoms be diligently documented. This involved obtaining medical documentation of any new symptoms that emerged following the accident. The client underwent multiple laminectomies to address damaged vertebrae.
When negotiations commenced with the insurance company, their initial stance predictably disputed that the force of the accident could have necessitated surgery. In response, Shane highlighted the documented emergence of new symptoms and emphasized that even a moderate accident could exacerbate pre-existing injuries.
Ultimately, the insurer was compelled to provide a settlement of $962,500.00. Additionally, our client benefitted from a reduced 29% case fee, amounting to savings of $70,000, as her claim was resolved without the need for litigation.
