I don’t understand anything about how personal injury or really any law cases work so I was totally in the dark as far as what to do when I was in a car accident and sustained injuries and damages. Thankfully I found Carlson and as of today my case is finally closed and I can move on with my life with a settlement in my bank account. Thank you so much to everyone who worked on my case! I hope I never need to come back but I’m glad to know you are in Waco if I ever need you again!

The Carlson Law firm in the Waco area was the perfect choice for me during my first automobile accident. I was put out of work with several injuries and had no source of income. That’s when this law firm came in handy. They not only referred me to a wonderful chiropractor, pain specialist, and MRI treatment center but they also remained responsive, professional and honest throughout the entire process. I had a lot of questions since I am 22 and like I said this was my first car accident, I didn’t think I would be able to catch up or recover since I was brand new to the area as well. But Porsche and Dominic remained sincere and kept their word the entire time. I have now received a settlement I am more than happy with and I would recommend them to anyone and everyone in the Waco area. Big thanks to the Carlson Law Firm and especially Porsche and Dominic.

My experiences thus far have been nothing short of excellent!!!After my accident I did not know what to do; however, the staff at Carlson Law Firm have been able to guide through the often-difficult journey. I am very grateful for the quick response from Ashley. In addition to responding to my questions very quickly, Ashley checks on me every week. The weekly contacts are extremely important to me; I feel support and I know that I am not just another name on a file. In a time of hurt and confusion, Ashley, and all other Carlson Law Firm members I've had contact with, showed they do care about my recovery.Ashley, thank you for the concern you show and the help you offer.

This law firm is extremely caring, understanding, and sympathetic to their client’s needs and wants. Throughout my unprecedented case, which had exigent circumstances surrounding it, I had nothing but the best regards pertaining to Carlson’s Law Firm in Waco, TX. I’d like to give a shout out to Attorneys Dominick and Ryan for their knowledge and expertise in exonerating my case favorably. To the Paralegals and/or Liaisons, Ashley, Porsha, and Shirley for doing a great job of gathering and organizing the material for the attorneys to argue the facts. My name is Harold A.

I just had to add an update. After settling my case I expected a wait of several weeks to get my money. Instead I get a call from Brittany 2 days later to tell me that my check was ready and then she went the extra mile by getting my account information and walking it over to my bank within a couple of hours to make the deposit on my behalf - all of this she did of her own volition! My case is settled and they still go the extra mile. To me that is the hallmark of a great practice to do business with and I will happily refer friends and family.I am extremely pleased with my experience and highly recommend the Carlson Law Firm. Ashley and Porsche guided me through the entire process with regular progress updates. I never once had to call to find out what was going on. The attorney, Ryan, was great about explaining all of my legal options and never once did I feel that the interests of the law firm were put above my own. Every person I had contact with was consistently professional, responsive and highly skilled - all while being empathetic and compassionate to how I, as the accident victim, felt about the process.

Wow, thanks guys! You all are family now. When you guys took my case it felt like my whole world was coming to an end. So many series of chained events dealing with my health and all my personal issues I bought in before you guys helped me out dealing with a tough insurance Company tactics. Thank you for being patient with me and providing the best Personal Injury Legal Council McLennan County has to offer it's Citizens. Waco is blessed to have a group of honest hard-working lawyers who's just after a quick buck. Doesn't help the fact the Larger Insurance Companies have the power to make Competent Law Firms such as yourselves look bad and its actually the insurance companies who are the bad guys but that what's not advertised on TV and Media Networks. You guys earned your keep and my undying loyalty. Being a heart patient etc... The care and treatment I received was kind and professional. I glad I recommend my aunty & uncle to you all and I will always recommend your business to all I ever come in contact with needing personal injury lawyer services. I want to personally thank Ms. Porsche Lock Hart, Mrs. Smith, Dominic, Ryan & all the hard working staff at the Waco Dr Location here in town. Thank you all. May the ELOHYIM the MOST HIGH guard you and keep you. Bless you Carlson Law Firm 💖💯☝🏽

All staff I’ve encountered with has been very professional and polite. If you want a Law Firm that will ACTIVELY INVESTIGATE your car accident, call The Carlson Law Firm in Waco. I’m more than grateful to be represented by them.

I Received a Small Amount for my Selttlement. I am not Pleased about this because my Car was Totaled, My Son and I was Injured, and received Therapy. My Left Eye was Injured and is still causing me problems. WE WERE HIT BEHIND UNDER THE LIGHT! The Woman who Rammed Us said She was a Soccer Mom, and wasn't Paying ATTENTION! At that Point I had NEVER HAD A CAR ACCIDENT BEFORE! I was Worried more about my Son, Shaken Up, And FRIGHTENED. After I Received the Womans Information, I Drove MYSELF to the HOSPITAL! DON'T DO THAT! ALWAYS, ALWAYS CALL THE POLICE AND A AMBULANCE at The Scene! LESSON LEARNED TOO LATE! The Carlson Law Firm HELPED As much as they could! I CAME to them AFTER I went to a Law firm IN HOUSTON that DID NOT HELP AT ALL! Their Paralegal Porsche Contacted Me Often, and kept me abreast of the Case. They was dealing with a Insurance Adjustor who just didn't think We were HURT enough to Warrant any Real Compensation that would help me at least Pay a DOWN Payment on another CAR, and Get My Eye Reexamined! Still the CARLSON LAWFIRM DID WHAT THEY COULD! I would RECOMMEND THEM INITIALLY Right AFTER AN ACCIDENT!

What is a Personal Injury?

In Texas, a personal injury lawsuit may be filed when your injuries were caused by another person’s misconduct or negligence. Instances where you may be injured include the following:

  • Slip and falls
  • Dog bites
  • Workplace injuries
  • Motor vehicle wrecks
  • Defective equipment
  • and more

Our personal injury lawyers see far more types of accidents than those listed. If you suspect you may have a claim because of circumstances that were not your fault, don’t hesitate to call The Carlson Law Firm. We offer free consultations to everyone who contacts us.

What damages can I recover?

In most cases, an injured person may be entitled to economic and non-economic damages.

A successful personal injury claim in Waco can provide financial compensation for all of your accident-related injuries. In Texas, the law allows injured victims to seek reimbursement for the following:

  • Medical expenses. All medical costs related to your accident may be recovered, including doctor’s appointments, hospital visits, surgeries, treatments, medications and long-term medical care.
  • Lost income and earning capacity. Both past and future lost wages can be recovered. In addition, our Waco personal injury lawyers may be able to help you recover compensation for future earning capacity due to temporary or permanent disabilities.
  • Pain and suffering. Most don’t realize that pain and suffering includes both physical pain and suffering in addition to the emotional trauma of an injury. You may be able to recover for emotional distress, mental anguish, psychological trauma, and lost quality or enjoyment of life.
  • Property damages. This may include repair or replacement of a vehicle in a car accident case, or it may include property damage in a dog bite case.

In addition, some personal injury lawsuits may also allow a plaintiff to collect punitive damages. These are damages on top of compensatory awards that are often intended to punish the defendant for gross negligence or malicious intent to harm. Call a Waco personal injury lawyer for an evaluation of the unique circumstance of your case.

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

For injury clients, you pay no upfront fees—no consultation fees and no billing fees. We only get paid if we successfully resolve your claim.

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 attorney will take is to gather documentation and evidence of your injuries. This includes collecting 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.

How long will my case take?

Generally speaking, injury claims can take anywhere from 18 months to several years to resolve — depending on the complexity of the claim. Your Carlson Law Firm legal team will explain the legal process to you and keep you updated along the way.

Why The Carlson Law Firm?

The Carlson Law Firm is recognized for its excellent customer service and outstanding legal representation. Each client is treated with the respect and dignity they deserve when they’ve been hurt through little to no fault of their own. Let our Waco injury law office handle the following so you can focus on your recovery.

What is Negligence?

If a party fails to meet the level of care a reasonable person would exercise, then that is considered negligence.

Negligence is the centerpiece of most injury cases. To obtain compensation for your Waco personal injury, you or your accident lawyer may have to prove negligence. To do so, your attorney will need to prove the following elements:

  • Duty of care
  • Breach of duty
  • Causation
  • Damages

If you fail to establish the four elements of negligence, you will not be successful in securing compensation for your injuries.
