Find the Right Lawyer for You
Whenever you or someone you love are severely hurt in an accident, whether that’s a car crash or a work-related incident in West Texas, you may not be close to home. You might get taken somewhere you aren’t familiar with. The hospital may disorient you, or you might need help understanding the insurance claim process. All this while bills start to come in for your accident.
Even though you know legal representation could reduce confusion around your case, you may not get the best results searching “personal injury law firm near me.” Finding a lawyer can be a daunting task.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
How Long do I Have to File a Claim in Texas?You have two years to file a personal injury claim in Texas. Called the statute of limitations, if that deadline expires, you will lose your chance to file a claim against the party responsible for your injuries. If you’re filing a workers’ compensation claim, you have 30 days to notify your employer.
-
What’s it Cost to Hire a Personal Injury Lawyer?Law firms can use a variety of methods to bill their clients. Some charge upfront costs. However, many personal injury firms choose to use a contingency fee structure. There are no upfront costs to you, and the firm will take a percentage of the final settlement. Basically, you don’t owe anything unless the firm wins your claim.
-
How Do I Know the Value of My Claim?The compensation in each personal injury claim will vary from case to case. The unique details of your injuries and how they’ve impacted your life will not be the same as someone in a similar situation. That’s why you need to call a personal injury attorney who will patiently review your case to account for every loss possible, including your mental anguish after an injury accident.
-
What Should My First Step Be After a Personal Injury?If you’ve been injured in an accident, seek medical care immediately. Even if you feel fine, some injuries take a few days to become obvious. Medical records and doctors’ notes are invaluable to personal injury claims. Once you’ve been treated, contact a personal injury lawyer. They can build your case and help hold the responsible party accountable for the damage they caused.

"Nick was very open and transparent."
Mr. Kemmy comes from good stock and was referred to us by one of the best. And if he's good enough for him to lay his reputation on the line, he's good enough for me.
