Have you been injured at work or in a motor vehicle accident?
We can help solve the hurt that comes next – the triple whammy kind of hurt that mounts when you are dealing with medical bills and lost income on top of physical pain.
Recently recognized by Houstonia magazine as one of the best workers’ compensation firms in the city, we have deep experience and a winning record with cases involving on-the-job injuries, accidents and medical issues. We advocate hard to help you receive the benefits you deserve.
Most of our workers’ compensation and personal injury cases are based on contingencies, which means we have to win for you: We don’t get paid unless you do.
Workers’ compensation or nonsubscriber cases
In Texas, you are entitled to reasonable and necessary medical benefits for your lifetime and income benefits if you are unable to work due to an on-the-job injury.
But navigating the Texas Workers’ Compensation process can be confusing and frustrating. Different rules apply, based on whether or not your company carries workers’ compensation insurance. Either way, lawyers and medical experts for the defense will try hard to cheat you and limit or deny your award.
Third party claims
Multiple entities can be at fault for workplace injuries. A third party claim extends your case beyond your employer to other individuals or companies. Unlike workers’ compensation benefits, which are limited and only cover medical benefits and income replacement, third party settlement benefits may include compensation for medical expenses, loss of earnings, disability, and pain and suffering.
Personal injury
Victims of motor vehicle accidents are entitled to compensation for property damage, car replacement or repairs, medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, permanent injury, and any expenses incurred as a result of the accident. Attorneys for insurance adjusters want you to settle fast, for as little as possible. We work relentlessly to get you all that you deserve.
Lonshore and Jones Act
When a workplace injury occurs on a dock or offshore, federal laws apply, and they are significantly different than state worker’s compensation rules. In addition to medical and income benefits throughout your treatment, the Lonshore and Jones Act law entitles you to a lump sum settlement at the end of your case.
Death claims
Nothing can bring back a loved one you have lost. But if negligence was a factor, you can seek damages for more than your pain and suffering. If you have lost a household bread winner, you can be compensated for the loss of earning potential. If you have lost a spouse, you could be entitled to loss of consortium. Your family needs to be cared for, and deserves fair treatment.
Social Security claims
You may qualify for social security disability benefits if you cannot work for a year or more due to an injury, an accident or some other medical issue.
