Sebastian Personal Injury Lawyer — Willacy County, Texas

To start a personal injury claim, contact a personal injury law firm to schedule a case review. During that conversation we will assess liability, discuss your injuries, and outline the next steps. After intake we document medical treatment, secure evidence, and communicate with insurers on your behalf. Acting promptly helps preserve critical evidence and meet Texas filing deadlines.

In most cases, Texas law requires personal injury lawsuits to be filed within two years of the date of injury. This deadline is known as the statute of limitations. Because exceptions can apply, and because prompt action preserves evidence and claim viability, contact our firm as soon as possible to discuss timing for your case.

Many personal injury cases resolve through negotiation and settlement with the insurance company. A settlement can provide timely compensation without the uncertainty of trial. If a fair settlement cannot be reached, we prepare the case for litigation and take it to trial when necessary to pursue full compensation for your losses.

Damages typically include economic losses such as medical expenses and lost wages, as well as non-economic losses like pain and suffering. Future medical needs and reduced earning capacity are also considered. We document all losses with medical records, bills, wage statements, and expert analysis when appropriate to present a complete picture of the compensation you need.

Many personal injury firms, including ours in applicable cases, operate on a contingency fee basis, meaning legal fees are paid from any recovery and there is no fee unless we obtain compensation. There may be case-related costs advanced during the process, and we will explain how those are handled and the arrangements for repayment from any recovery.

Seek medical attention right away and follow medical advice. Document the incident by taking photos, collecting witness contact information, and keeping records of treatment and expenses. Avoid giving detailed recorded statements to insurance adjusters without legal guidance. Contact our office for a prompt case review so important evidence can be preserved.

Yes. A denial of liability by the insurer is a common part of the claims process. We can investigate further, gather additional evidence, and challenge the denial through negotiation or litigation. Persistence, documentation, and legal advocacy often persuade insurers to reconsider or support claims in court when justified by the facts.

Resolution time varies based on injury recovery, complexity of liability, and willingness of parties to negotiate. Some cases settle within months, while others take longer if litigation is required. We provide timelines based on your case specifics and regularly update you on progress so you know what to expect at each stage.

Wrongful death claims can seek recovery for funeral expenses, loss of financial support, loss of companionship, and other damages allowed under Texas law. Eligible family members may bring such claims. Each wrongful death case is unique, and we work to quantify both economic and non-economic losses to pursue appropriate compensation for the surviving family.
