HOW CAN CAN A PERSONAL INJURY LAWYER HELP ME?Insurance companies employ claims adjusters and lawyers to find ways to pay injury victims as little as possible. Our Dallas personal injury law firm fights for our clients, everyday, against persons or businesses causing injuries. Let us put our record of experience, integrity, and commitment to our clients to work for you. Contact our personal injury law office now to obtain compensation for your injury damages and losses.
If you are injured due to the fault of someone else, you should immediately seek appropriate medical treatment for your injury including emergency room care if needed. If you need help locating a healthcare provider, our law firm will provide assistance locating healthcare providers that are knowledgeable and experienced in treating your type of injury. Contact our law office now if you need help getting medical care.
In a personal injury case, the settlement or court judgment should include compensation for all medical expenses including hospital/emergency room charges, prescription expenses, diagnostic testing (x-rays, CT scans, etc.), surgery, physical therapy, and other expenses. Often, injured persons are not financially able to pay for medical care before they receive a settlement. We have access to a network of healthcare providers that will provide healthcare services and wait to be paid until the conclusion of your injury case. Contact our Dallas injury law firm now for help getting medical care you need to recover from your injury.
Injury victims are entitled to compensation for loss of wage earning capacity and lost wages. Persons forced to use paid time-off work (sick days, vacation pay, PTO, etc.) are entitled to compensation for having to use employment benefits due to their injury. Also, injured persons who lost their jobs, due to their injury, are entitled to compensation. It's very important to retain all medical documentation concerning your doctor's order to stay off work due to your injury. Off work documentation is critical to successfully obtaining compensation for lost wages.
We strongly recommend you should not talk to an insurance company representative until you have consulted with a personal injury attorney. Insurance claims adjusters are skilled at finding ways to pay you the smallest amount possible to settle your claim. They are not obligated to help you understand your rights. We also recommend you not give a recorded statement to the insurance company without the assistance of your own attorney present at the time of the statement. What you say, during the recorded statement, may determine the outcome of your case. If you have been contacted by an insurance company about your case, call our Dallas injury law office before you speak to an insurance company claims representative.
WHAT IS THE VALUE OF MY CASE?The value of a personal injury case is based upon the facts of what occurred and the severity of the injury suffered by the injured person. Generally, severe injury claims combined with high medical bills have a greater value than less severe claims and lower medical bills. Every case is different. Our office will advise you about the reasonableness of settlement offers received in your case and whether or not a lawsuit should be filed. If a lawsuit becomes necessary, we will zealously pursue the case against the other party. Our goal is to obtain the best possible injury settlement or court judgment for you or your loved one.
The length of time an injury claim takes, before it resolves, depends on how long it takes the injured person to recover from their injury. Once the injured person is released from medical care or reaches maximum improvement, efforts can begin to settle the case. For example, a claim for a person in medical care for two weeks will resolve much sooner than a claim for a person who received medical care for six months. We want to resolve your claim as fast as possible but without compromising the value of your case.
Our fee is contingent upon you receiving a settlement or judgment in your case. No attorney's fees or expenses are charged unless you recover money in your injury case.
