Personal Injury FAQ

Do I Have a Personal Injury Case?

If you’ve sustained an injury that was another person or entity’s fault (whether or not they intended to cause you harm), you might have a personal injury case.

Consider the following types of scenarios that could give rise to a valid claim:

- An automobile driver runs a red light and crashes into another vehicle
- A person slips and falls on an uneven surface in a clothing store
- After using a defective product, a person becomes ill
- A doctor prescribes the incorrect meditation to a patient

Ultimately, the easiest way to find out whether you have a personal injury case is to get in touch with an experienced attorney for a free consultation. During that meeting, the lawyer can look into the facts of your situation and go over your best course of action.

How Long Do I Have To File a Lawsuit After an Accident in Texas?

Laredo accident victims typically have two years to file a personal injury lawsuit against the at-fault party. The Texas statute of limitations starts to run on the date of the accident or injury (or the date of death in the event of wrongful death).

There could be exceptions. For example, if the defendant is a government agency, you may have as little as six months to file a notice of claim.

It’s crucial to speak with a knowledgeable attorney as soon as possible to preserve your right to compensation. If you file your accident case too late, you’ll be barred from holding the responsible party accountable for your damages.

How Much Does It Cost To Hire a Personal Injury Lawyer?

Most personal injury lawyers in Laredo and throughout Webb County work on a contingency fee basis. Their fee is contingent on the outcome of your case, meaning they don’t get paid unless they secure compensation on your behalf.

If your case is successful, your attorney will deduct their pre-agreed-upon legal fees (typically 33-40%) from your settlement or award. If you don’t win any money for damages, you don’t owe attorney’s fees.

This fee structure allows you to retain an experienced accident attorney even if you don’t have the funds to pay. You won’t owe anything upfront, and they’ll get started right away. Contact our Laredo law office today to learn more about our contingency fee agreement.

Will My Case Go To Trial?

Most personal injury claims resolve during the negotiation process via a settlement agreement. Only a minority of personal injury cases progress to the trial phase because trials are unpredictable, costly, and time-consuming.

However, if the statute of limitations is nearing or negotiations become unproductive, our personal injury attorneys in Laredo will file a formal lawsuit.

Once we do this, we’ll gain access to the pre-trial discovery process. During this phase, the parties will exchange information and evidence through depositions, requests for admissions and documents, and interrogatories. This allows us to examine each other’s arguments and the strength of each party’s claim, which can aid in negotiating a fair settlement.
