Trust Guss to Be Honest

Examples of Edinburg Personal Injury Cases We Handle

Texas law may allow you to sue that at-fault party for monetary damages if you have suffered an injury due to someone else's wrongful actions or failures to act. These personal injury claims can arise from many accidents in Edinburg. Some of the more common personal injury scenarios that bring clients to us at Stewart J. Guss Injury Accident Lawyers include:

Injuries Caused by Dangerous Property Conditions

Owners and occupants of commercial, residential, and public property in Edinburg must keep their premises reasonably safe for visitors. But that doesn’t always happen. An unfixed or undisclosed property hazard can result in a dangerous accident that causes severe injuries, such as in the case of:

Falling on slippery, uneven, or cracked floors;
Tripping on poorly lighted stairs or an unmarked step;
Losing your balance because of a loose or defective railing;
Getting bitten by a dangerous dog or other pet;
Being the victim of a violent crime at a commercial property; or
Suffering burns due to a building’s inadequate fire suppression systems or dangerously hot tap water.

These are just a few examples of the so-called premises liability cases we commonly handle at Trust Guss Injury Lawyers. If you suffered an injury at someone else's property in Edinburg, we can help you explore your rights to financial compensation.

Car, Truck, Bus, and Motorcycle Accident Injuries

According to the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) Crash Records Information System (CRIS), there were more than 2,700 motor vehicle accidents in Edinburg in recent years. Many of those caused personal injuries, and some resulted in tragic fatalities. The vast majority of them happened because of dangerous, preventable conduct like:

Speeding and other reckless driving behaviors;
Driving while under the influence of drugs or alcohol;
Distracted driving, such as texting, eating, or putting on makeup while driving;
Drowsy driving;
Motor vehicle defects; and
Unreasonable dangerous roads and intersections.

The Stewart J. Guss Injury Accident Lawyers team has years of experience representing victims of accidents involving cars, trucks, buses, motorcycles, and other motor vehicles. We know how to investigate a crash, determine who was at fault, and secure the maximum compensation for crash victims.

Bicycle and Pedestrian Accident Injuries

CRIS data also reveals that numerous crashes involving pedestrians and bicyclists happen every year in Edinburg. Most of those accidents inflict severe injuries to the person on foot or riding a bike, who has no protection from the impact with a motor vehicle. Like other accidents involving a motor vehicle collision, bicycle and pedestrian accidents frequently happen because of the dangerous, careless actions of someone other than the injured pedestrian or bicyclist.

At Trust Guss Injury Lawyers, we understand the especially catastrophic nature of many pedestrian and bicycle accident injuries. Our team works tirelessly to hold at-fault parties accountable so that victims have the financial resources they need to heal from or manage their often-serious injuries.

Wrongful Deaths

The Texas wrongful death statute entitles a spouse, parent, or child of someone who dies in an accident to seek monetary damages from the party (or parties) at fault. At Trust Guss Injury Lawyers, we understand that financial compensation cannot heal a tragic loss. But through our efforts, the grieving spouses and family members of deceased victims can obtain meaningful financial support that helps them navigate their difficult circumstances and meet their future needs.

Some Personal Injuries Our Clients Commonly Suffer

As a law firm that devotes its practice exclusively to personal injury, we have helped clients secure financial compensation for many traumas over the years. One of the benefits of hiring Trust Guss Injury Lawyers, to represent you in an Edinburg personal injury case is the confidence that comes from knowing that your team has represented clients with your type of injury before and knows how to get you paid for it.

As mentioned above, this is only a partial list. No matter what injury you suffered in an accident in Edinburg, chances are the team at Trust Guss Injury Lawyers, has represented someone with a similar injury. We will understand how to secure the financial compensation you need to pay your expenses and rebuild your life.

Your Rights to Financial Compensationfor an Edinburg Personal Injury

Under Texas law, personal injury victims like you generally have the right to take legal action against anyone whose wrongful, dangerous actions led to you getting hurt. Depending on the facts of your case, the party who owes you money damages could be an individual, a business, a school, a non-profit or religious institution, or even a government entity. At Trust Guss Injury Lawyers, we have the experience, know-how, and resources to hold anyone accountable for misconduct that causes personal injuries, no matter how large, wealthy, or powerful they are.

What types and amounts of financial compensation can we get you? It varies depending on the nature and extent of your injuries, the complexity of your case, and the financial resources (such as insurance) that the at-fault party has available to pay you.

But as a general matter, our team can often secure payment for at least some of our injured clients:

Past, present, and future medical expenses related to treating an injury and any health complications it causes, including costs of hospitalization, follow-up care, therapy and rehabilitation, medications, and medical equipment;
Past lost wages from missing work because of an injury, including payment for sick leave and vacation days consumed;
Future loss of income resulting from an injury that will keep our client from working over the long term;
Non-medical, out-of-pocket expenses our client has incurred or will incur because of the accident or their personal injury, including the cost of repairing or replacing damaged personal property or of services needed to help our client live independently;
Physical pain and discomfort caused by an injury;
Emotional suffering and other mental health challenges triggered by an accident or injury;
Diminished quality of life and personal relationships caused by the difficulties and frustrations of living with a personal injury.

In some cases, our team can also convince a court to award you exemplary damages, which punish the at-fault party for fraudulent, malicious, or grossly negligent conduct.

If your loved one died from fatal personal injuries in an Edinburg accident, you may receive compensation for your loss's financial and personal impacts.

Protecting Your Legal Rights After Suffering an Edinburg Personal Injury

In the immediate aftermath of suffering a personal injury in Edinburg, you may struggle to know where to turn for help or how to make important decisions. Every case differs, of course, but in our experience at Trust Guss Injury Lawyers, taking the following steps can protect your rights and put you in the most vital possible position to secure maximum financial compensation.

Get the Medical Care You Need

When seeking medical treatment for your personal injury, it's always better to be safe than sorry. Go to the doctor after an accident or incident that hurt you, even if you think you walked away with only minor bumps and bruises. Some potentially life-threatening injuries may not show symptoms right away, and letting a medical professional check you over is the only way to prevent them from getting worse.

You can also do yourself a legal favor by seeking medical care. The records created by your medical visits can prove a personal injury claim and disprove arguments by an insurance company or defense lawyer that you bear the blame for your injuries instead of their client.

Be Wary of Insurance Companies Who Try to Contact You

The party at fault for your personal injury may carry liability insurance that covers your claim. But just because someone's insurance should pay you for your full expenses and losses doesn't mean it will. Instead, the at-fault party's insurer might try to convince you to accept a quick settlement of your Edinburg personal injury claim for far less than it's worth.

In most cases, you have no obligation to talk to someone else’s insurance company after suffering a personal injury. For that reason, the safest bet is usually to leave negotiations with a liability insurance carrier to a skilled personal injury lawyer who represents your interests and knows how to protect you from insurance tactics designed to undermine your claim.

Contact a Personal Injury Lawyer in Edinburg ASAP

You have only a limited window of time to claim monetary damages for your personal injury (in most cases, no more than two years, and sometimes far less). So, there’s no time to waste hiring a lawyer to fight for you. Contact an Edinburg personal injury lawyer as soon as possible after suffering your injury, or ask a family member to do it for you.
