Llano Grande Personal Injury Lawyer — Hidalgo County, Texas

Begin by seeking medical attention and preserving all documentation related to your injury, including medical bills, treatment notes, and correspondence from insurers. Contact The White Law Firm, P.C. promptly so we can assess your claim, advise you on communication with insurers, and begin evidence gathering to protect your rights and meet Texas filing deadlines.

In Texas, the statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is generally two years from the date of the injury. This deadline varies in limited circumstances, so timely consultation is important. Delays can result in lost rights to bring a claim, so contact our office as soon as possible to ensure your case is preserved and to begin necessary investigation before evidence disappears.

Insurance companies may reimburse medical bills as part of a settlement, but they are not always quick to offer full payment without proof of liability and documented damages. We help organize medical expenses and negotiate with insurers to pursue payment for both current and future medical needs related to the injury, protecting you from having to absorb costs alone.

Many cases settle before trial through negotiation with insurers, which can be faster and less costly than litigation. When negotiations fail to produce fair compensation, we prepare to file suit and take the case to trial to pursue a judgment that fully addresses your damages.

Pain and suffering is a non-economic damage intended to compensate for physical pain and emotional distress. Calculation considers injury severity, treatment, recovery timeline, and how the injury affects daily life. We document symptoms, medical progress, and testimony about life changes caused by the injury to support a reasonable valuation of non-economic losses during negotiations or trial.

Texas follows a modified comparative fault rule, which allows recovery when you are not more than 50% at fault; your compensation is reduced by your percentage of fault. Even when fault is shared, pursuing a claim can secure compensation for your share of damages. We evaluate evidence to minimize your assigned fault and protect recoverable damages.

Recoverable damages commonly include medical expenses, lost wages, loss of earning capacity, pain and suffering, and out-of-pocket costs tied to the injury. Depending on the case, additional damages such as future medical needs and rehabilitation costs may be included to ensure the settlement addresses long-term impacts.

Contacting a firm as soon as possible helps protect evidence, secure witness statements, and meet critical deadlines. Early involvement often strengthens the overall claim. If you have urgent medical needs, prioritize treatment first, then reach out to us so we can begin preserving records and advising on insurer communications right away.

When available insurance is limited, we explore other recovery options such as uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage, third-party claims, or personal assets when applicable. We evaluate all potential sources of compensation and pursue the best available avenue to cover medical expenses and other losses associated with your injury.

Personal injury representation typically operates on a contingency arrangement, meaning fees are collected only if recovery is obtained through settlement or judgment. We explain fee structures and any case costs during the initial consultation so you understand what to expect before deciding how to proceed.
