Frequently Asked Questions

Fort Worth Personal Injury FAQs

How much does it cost to hire a Fort Worth personal injury lawyer?

Our firm works on a contingency fee basis. You pay nothing upfront, and we only get paid if we win your case.

What if I had a pre-existing condition?

You can still recover compensation if the accident worsened your pre-existing condition. The "eggshell plaintiff" rule protects you.

Will my case go to court?

Most cases settle out of court. However, if the insurance company refuses to offer a fair settlement, we are fully prepared to take your case to trial.

How long do I have to file a personal injury lawsuit in Texas?

The statute of limitations is two years from the date of your injury. Act quickly to preserve your rights.

Should I accept the insurance company’s first offer?

Probably not. Initial offers are usually far below what your case is worth. Always speak with a Fort Worth personal injury lawyer before accepting any settlement.

What if I was partially at fault?

Texas follows a "modified comparative fault" rule. As long as you were less than 51% at fault, you can still recover compensation (reduced by your percentage of fault).
