Abram Personal Injury Attorney Serving Clients in Texas

Most personal injury cases hinge on proving fault and documenting damages; a reasonable settlement reflects medical costs, lost wages, and non-economic harms. Early evidence collection and medical care strengthen a claim. We can review your case at no cost, explain likely outcomes, and outline the steps to preserve claims and pursue compensation while you focus on recovery.

In most personal injury cases, the deadline to file a lawsuit in Texas is two years from the date of injury. Missing this deadline can prevent you from bringing a claim in court. Certain situations can alter the deadline, so prompt consultation is important to identify any exceptions and to ensure all procedural requirements are met.

Texas follows a comparative fault system where your recovery is reduced by your percentage of responsibility. Even if you share fault, you may still recover damages if your share is less than 100%. We evaluate evidence to minimize fault attributed to you and negotiate with insurers to seek the highest possible recovery under the circumstances.

Case value depends on the nature and severity of injuries, medical expenses, lost income, and non-economic losses like pain and suffering. Each claim is unique and requires a detailed assessment of current and future needs. We analyze medical records, rehabilitation prospects, and economic impact to produce a realistic valuation and pursue compensation that reflects both present and future losses.

Many claims resolve through negotiation and settlement without a trial, but some disputes require filing suit and presenting the case in court. The path depends on insurer responses and the strength of the case. We prepare every case as if it may go to trial to ensure you have strong leverage during negotiations and the best chance of a fair outcome whether through settlement or verdict.

We typically handle personal injury matters on a contingency fee basis, meaning legal fees are collected only if we recover money for you. This allows injured people to pursue claims without upfront attorney costs. We provide clear fee agreements that explain the percentage taken from recovery and any case-related expenses so you understand the financial arrangement before moving forward.

Seek medical attention right away, report the incident to the proper authorities or property managers, and document the scene with photos if possible. Obtain contact information for witnesses and keep all treatment records and bills. Avoid providing recorded statements to insurance companies without legal advice and contact our office to discuss steps to protect your claim and preserve evidence.

Simple claims with minor damage and clear liability may be manageable without counsel, but insurers often undervalue claims and complex cases can involve legal pitfalls. Representation can improve settlement offers and navigate procedural deadlines. If losses are significant or liability is disputed, involving a law firm early improves evidence preservation and advocacy, increasing the likelihood of a full and fair recovery.

Resolution time varies widely. Minor claims may settle in weeks or months, while complex cases can take a year or longer if litigation becomes necessary. Medical stability often guides timing for settlement discussions. We provide rough timelines during case evaluation and work to resolve matters efficiently while protecting your entitlement to recover appropriate damages.
