If you're reading this page, something happened. Maybe a car wreck. Maybe a fall. Maybe a family member didn't come home from work. Whatever brought you here, we're sorry — and we want to help you understand what's possible from here.

Personal injury cases are all different. A rear-end on I-35 looks nothing like a refinery accident in Houston, which looks nothing like a Permian Basin truck crash on US-285. The injuries, the witnesses, the evidence, the defendants — all of it varies. So does the law: Texas and New Mexico have meaningfully different rules, and your case needs an attorney who knows both. What stays the same in every case, though, is the other side: an insurance company using the same handful of tactics on every victim — the early recorded statement, the lowball offer, the "independent" medical exam, the delay-deny-defend strategy. We know each one. We know how to counter each one.

Below are the some of the case types we handle, with a short overview of each. If your case type or city isn't listed, call us anyway — the consultation is free, there's no fee unless we win, and we'll tell you honestly what we can and can't help with.

Case Types

Every case we fight.

From a fender-bender that turned into a traumatic brain injury, to a wrongful-death case against a national trucking company — we handle the full range of personal injury and wrongful death cases in Texas and New Mexico. Click any case type below to read about how we approach it.

01 · 🚗

Car Accidents

Whether it's a rear-ending on I-35, a T-bone at an intersection, or a hit-and-run in a parking lot, the wreck is only the start. We handle the medical bills, lost wages, and the adjuster who's trying to settle before you even know what your injuries really are.

Truck Accidents

18-wheeler cases are different from car wrecks. Federal hours-of-service rules, black-box data, and the trucking company's defense team show up the moment a serious crash happens — we move faster than they do, preserving the evidence before it gets overwritten or destroyed.

Motorcycle Accidents

Riders get blamed by default — by drivers, by police reports, and by insurance adjusters who assume the bike was at fault. We rebuild what really happened with reconstruction experts, helmet and gear evidence, and the kind of scene work that tells the true story to a jury.

Pedestrian Accidents

Crosswalk hits, parking-lot strikes, hit-and-runs — when a 4,000-pound vehicle meets a person, the injuries are almost always catastrophic. We handle these cases with the urgency they demand, including uninsured-motorist claims when the driver flees the scene.

Slip & Fall

A wet floor at the grocery store. A torn carpet at a hotel. An unlit apartment stairwell. Property owners owe their visitors a duty of reasonable care — and when they breach it, your medical bills shouldn't be your problem. We know how big retailers defend these claims, and how to break their playbook.

Dog Bites

Dog bites cause more than puncture wounds — they leave scarring, nerve damage, and lasting psychological trauma, especially in children. We pursue homeowners' insurance and pet-owner liability under Texas and New Mexico law to cover medical care, surgical scar revision, and the full impact on the victim's life.

Wrongful Death

Nothing brings them back. But a properly handled wrongful death case can pay the bills, secure the family's future, and force the at-fault party to face accountability. We carry the legal weight so the family can focus on grieving — across both the Texas and New Mexico wrongful death statutes.

Workplace Injuries

Texas is the only state where employers can opt out of workers' comp — and when they do, you can sue them directly under Labor Code § 406.033 with most of their usual defenses stripped away. We also handle third-party claims against subcontractors, equipment manufacturers, and other parties who contributed to the injury.

Catastrophic Injuries

Traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, amputations, third-degree burns — the cases where the victim's whole future is at stake. These cases require life-care planning, vocational experts, and structured settlements built to last decades. We do that work, and we know what these cases are actually worth.

Rideshare Accidents

Uber and Lyft carry $1 million liability policies — but only when the driver is in the right phase of the app. Was the driver carrying a passenger? Heading to a pickup? Logged off entirely? The answer changes everything. We sort it out and pursue the right coverage.

Negligent Security

When an assault, robbery, or attack happens on someone else's property because they failed to provide reasonable security — broken locks, no cameras, no guards in known high-crime areas — the property owner can be held responsible. We pursue apartment complexes, parking lots, hotels, and businesses for these claims.

Insurance Claims

Sometimes the insurance company is the defendant. Wrongful denials, lowball offers, refusal to pay valid claims, manufactured delay — Texas and New Mexico both have strong insurance bad-faith protections. When the carrier acts in bad faith, we pursue them directly for the underlying claim plus additional damages.
