After speaking to quite a few law firms in the area, I decided to trust my intuition and have Mr. Lopez represent me for a relatively difficult child custody matter. Mr. Alejandro Lopez (attorney) and Ms. Jami Nance (paralegal) were very knowledgeable about the legal processes / steps and took the time to explain what was happening in the case and explain my options, always quick to respond to my emails and requests for phone calls, always willing to answer my questions, and ultimately helped me win my case! Invoices were sent in a timely manner and the charges were clearly outlined when signing the initial contract. My custody case was very contested (no divorce involved) but from start to finish - the case only took 8 months to resolve thanks to their timely actions and close attention. Mr. Lopez & Ms. Nance, I cannot thank you enough! Thank you so much for helping me through such a scary unknown situation and handling it with understanding and compassion for the last 8 months! I cannot recommend this firm enough and this team specifically for your custody cases!

I want to highly commend the help that I received from Kinsee Tumlinson, with my case, in my opinion, she went above and beyond, in helping me to resolve an issue concerning my deceased husband's claim. She made me feel at ease during the process and walked me through it until the very end. I was having trouble receiving a link to complete his claim and the deadline was within one day. I could not receive the link and was going to give up, but Ms. Kinsee assured me she would be working to get this resolved. And guess what! She got the link sent to me and as I stated, stayed with me on the phone to walk me through the process of filling out the forms. Thank you Kinsee, you are one of a kind. I appreciate all you have done for me. May God bless you.Y. McCarthy

What is Considered a Personal Injury?

In Texas, a personal injury lawsuit may be filed when someone else’s misconduct or negligence caused your injuries. Personal injuries often include:

  • Car accidents
  • Trucking crashes
  • Uber or Lyft crashes
  • Delivery vehicle crashes
  • Dog bites
  • Boat crashes
  • Slip and falls
  • Workplace injuries
  • and more

Elements of a Personal Injury Case

When you’re hurt, you need to contact an attorney right away. Your attorney will need to begin collecting evidence to prove your case right away. Your attorney will need to provide evidence that supports a negligence claim.

To succeed in a personal injury claim, you and your attorney will need to provide evidence for the negligence elements:

  • Duty. The person or corporation had an obligation to avoid or minimize the risk of foreseeable harm to you or a loved one.
  • Breach of duty. Once duty is established, proving a breach of duty means the person or entity failed to exercise the same level of care a reasonable or prudent person in the same or similar circumstances.
  • Causation. A plaintiff will need to prove that the defendant’s actions caused their injuries. In many cases, causation is fairly straightforward. However, it can become tricky when there are multiple plaintiffs or defendants involved. This is why it is extremely important to have a team of personal injury lawyers by your side.
  • Damages. In Texas, a plaintiff needs to show they suffered real and measurable damages as a result of the defendant’s actions.

The Carlson Law Firm is Where Compassion Meets Injury Law

The Carlson Commitment

Navigating a personal injury lawsuit is not easy. It requires experience, skill and a reputation that instills fear into the insurance company. Every Carlson Law Firm attorney has courtroom experience. Sometimes, the insurance company refuses to settle for the amount you need for your full recovery. If that occurs, with a Carlson Attorney by your side, you know that you already have everything you need to get the most compensation possible.

After an unexpected injury, you’re dealing with potentially life-altering pain. The insurance company often relies on this period to swoop in and settle your claim before you 1) understand the full extent of your injuries and 2) understand you’re not 100% capable of negotiating.

This is where our attorneys come in. We will handle the paperwork and negotiations with the insurance company while you focus on yourself.

A Killeen accident can be expensive. Between medical bills, lost wages and other unexpected financial burdens, you will face a mountain of potential debt. Our legal experts can provide valuable insight to fully understand how much a defendant should pay you for each area of your loss.

Part of our negotiation strategy is being ready to take your case to court. This is what actually helps recover the substantial compensation you deserve.

What is the lawsuit process?

Every personal injury case is unique. However, they typically follow the following steps:

  1. Investigate. In order to build your case, the first step your motorcycle accident attorney will take is to gather documentation and evidence of your crash and injuries. This includes collecting crash reports, scene examinations, insurance, photographs, and other records related to your claim.
  2. Negotiate. Once our attorneys have gathered the necessary information and evidence to prove your claim, we will begin negotiation talks with the defendant’s insurance company.
  3. Litigate. If the defendant’s insurance company fails to offer a fair settlement during negotiations, your attorney will be ready to present your case in a courtroom.

An experienced Killeen personal injury lawyer will ensure no stone is left unturned.
