If you were hurt in an accident in Houston, you should not have to fight an insurance company on your own. Your Insurance Attorney represents injured Texans from our Houston office and takes on the carriers directly so you can focus on recovering. There is no fee unless we win your case.
An injury can change everything in a matter of seconds. Medical bills pile up, you miss work, and the insurance company that promised to protect you suddenly becomes difficult to reach. At Your Insurance Attorney, we have recovered over $1 billion for clients, and we bring that same determination to every personal injury claim we handle in the Houston area. Our attorneys know how insurers evaluate, delay, and undervalue claims, and we use that knowledge to pursue the full compensation you may be entitled to under Texas law.
Houston is one of the busiest and fastest growing metro areas in the country, and with that growth comes a steady stream of serious accidents on highways like I-10, I-45, US-59, and the Sam Houston Tollway. When you are injured, the at-fault party and their insurer will move quickly to limit what they pay. You need a team that moves faster and pushes back harder.
We built our reputation by treating every client like the priority they are. From your first free consultation to the final resolution of your case, we handle the paperwork, the phone calls, the investigation, and the negotiation. If the insurance company refuses to offer a fair settlement, we are prepared to take your case to trial. Here is what sets our Houston personal injury practice apart:
Our attorneys handle a wide range of injury claims throughout Harris County and the surrounding region. No two cases are identical, and we tailor our strategy to the facts, the injuries, and the insurance coverage involved in yours.
Car crashes are among the most common causes of serious injury in Houston. Whether you were hit by a distracted driver, a speeding driver, or a driver who ran a red light, you may be entitled to compensation for your medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. We handle rear-end collisions, intersection crashes, multi-vehicle pileups, and hit-and-run claims, and we know how to deal with uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage when the at-fault driver cannot pay.
Collisions involving 18-wheelers and commercial trucks often cause catastrophic injuries because of the sheer size and weight involved. These cases are also more complex, frequently involving the trucking company, the driver, the cargo loader, and multiple insurance policies. We know how to preserve critical evidence such as driver logs, electronic control module data, and maintenance records before it disappears.
Motorcyclists are far more exposed than other drivers, and the injuries that result from a crash tend to be severe. Unfortunately, riders also face unfair bias from insurers who assume they were at fault. We push back against that bias and build a clear, fact-based case for full and fair compensation.
Crashes involving Uber, Lyft, and other rideshare vehicles raise tricky questions about which insurance policy applies. Coverage can shift depending on whether the driver was waiting for a ride, on the way to a passenger, or actively transporting one. We untangle these layers of coverage so you can pursue every dollar available.
Property owners in Texas have a duty to keep their premises reasonably safe. When a wet floor, broken stairway, poor lighting, or other hazard causes a fall, the owner may be liable for the resulting injuries. We handle slip and fall, trip and fall, and other premises liability claims against stores, apartment complexes, and commercial properties.
When a doctor, nurse, or hospital fails to meet the accepted standard of care and a patient is harmed, the consequences can be devastating and lifelong. Medical malpractice claims in Texas are technical and heavily defended, and we work with qualified medical experts to evaluate whether negligence occurred and how it affected you.
Few things are harder than losing a loved one because of someone else's negligence. While no claim can undo that loss, a wrongful death case can provide financial stability and a measure of accountability. We handle these sensitive matters with the compassion and diligence your family deserves.
The steps you take in the hours and days after an accident can have a direct impact on your health and on the strength of your future claim. If you are able, keep the following in mind:
Personal injury claims in Texas are governed by specific rules that can affect whether you recover and how much. Understanding the basics helps you protect your rights, and our attorneys handle the details for you.
In most Texas personal injury cases, you generally have two years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit. If you wait too long, you can lose your right to recover entirely, regardless of how strong your case is. Because evidence also fades and witnesses become harder to locate over time, it is wise to speak with an attorney as soon as possible.
Texas follows a modified comparative negligence rule, sometimes called proportionate responsibility. Under this rule, you can still recover compensation even if you were partly at fault, as long as you were not more than 50 percent responsible for the accident. Your recovery is reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if you are found 20 percent at fault, your award is reduced by 20 percent. Insurance companies often try to shift blame onto victims to lower what they pay, which is one more reason to have an experienced advocate on your side.
Compensation in a personal injury case is meant to make you whole again. Depending on the facts of your case, you may be entitled to recover:
In rare cases involving especially reckless conduct, additional damages may be available to punish the wrongdoer. We evaluate every avenue of recovery so nothing is left on the table.
There is no single formula that fits every case. The value of your claim depends on the severity of your injuries, the cost of your medical care, the wages you lost, the long-term impact on your life, and the insurance coverage available. A minor injury with a full recovery is valued very differently from a permanent disability that prevents you from returning to work.
Be cautious of any early settlement offer from an insurance company. The first number is rarely the best number, and once you accept it, you usually cannot ask for more later even if your condition worsens. We carefully calculate the full present and future cost of your injuries before we negotiate, so you are not pressured into settling for less than your case may be worth.
We will never charge you anything for a consultation or case evaluation. We will guide you throughout your case and make sure your rights are respected. And if you do not win, we do not get paid. That is our commitment to every client we represent in Houston.
We have made working with us as straightforward as possible, because the last thing you need after an injury is more stress. Here is what to expect:
Nothing upfront. We work on a contingency fee basis, which means we only get paid if we recover money for you. Your initial consultation is always free.
In most cases, you have two years from the date of the accident. Certain situations can shorten or extend that window, so it is best to contact an attorney promptly to protect your rights.
You may still be able to recover compensation in Texas as long as you were not more than 50 percent at fault. Your recovery would be reduced by your share of responsibility. We work to minimize any blame unfairly placed on you.
Usually not. Early offers tend to be far below the true value of a claim. Once you accept, you generally cannot seek more, even if your injuries turn out to be more serious than they first appeared. Let us review any offer before you respond.
It depends on the complexity of your case, the severity of your injuries, and whether the insurer negotiates in good faith. Some cases settle in a few months, while others take longer. We keep you informed at every stage and never rush you into an unfair settlement.
