Motor vehicle crashes encompass a variety of vehicles, including cars, trucks, and motorcycles. We also represent injured pedestrians and bicyclists. Although Texas requires motorists to carry insurance, not all do. However, the state also provides the option of uninsured/underinsured motorist insurance, which covers drivers if they are injured by an uninsured motorist.

Premise liability involves injuries caused by slips, trips, and falls on another party’s property, such as a store or restaurant. If your fall occurred because the owner failed to maintain the property or warn visitors of the potential hazard, they may be liable for your injuries.

Workplace accidents can occur in any occupation, but they are particularly prevalent in Texas industries such as oil and gas, transportation, and manufacturing. Whether injuries are relatively minor or catastrophic (such as traumatic brain or spinal cord injuries), our lawyers ensure victims receive all the damages they deserve.

Texas follows the one-bite rule that states a victim can recover damages from a dog bite if:

• The dog’s owner knew the dog had bitten or shown aggression to another person
• The owner failed to control their dog or prevent the bite.

Your accident lawyer in Laredo will investigate your accident to identify the at-fault parties and hold them liable for your losses. In the tragic event that a family member dies from their injuries, your attorney will file a wrongful death case to seek damages for survivors.

At your free case review, your Laredo personal injury lawyer will cover these personal injury basics:

To hold someone liable for your injuries, your lawyer must prove negligence by demonstrating these elements:

• The responsible party owed you a duty of care
• The party breached its duty through actions or inaction
• The breach was the proximate cause of your bodily harm
• You would not have been injured if the breach hadn’t occurred
• Modified Comparative Fault

Texas follows the proportionate responsibility rule that holds all parties at fault for your accident liable for their portion of the responsibility. You can seek damages from all at-fault parties to maximize your compensation. If you played a part in the accident, you can still seek damages if your share of the fault was less than 51%.

Texas law allows victims to seek economic damages, including medical bills, lost wages, property damage, and other documented losses, as evidenced by bills, receipts, or estimates. You may also seek non-economic damages for intangible losses like physical pain and suffering. Punitive damages may also be available if the responsible party’s actions were grossly negligent or malicious.
