Both of these attorneys have worked for me on drastically two different things, and both times I have been satisfied. My most recent dealings, I hired Trent and I have to say, I have never employed a more fair, a more honest, a more harder working person. I am totally impressed with him as a person. I don’t know him personally, outside that we Crossfit together, but the way he treated me only speaks to his character and his personality. His integrity is unreal. I am trying to find words to express my gratitude but all I can say is I’ve never been treated with more genuine respect. By the way, he’s a dam good attorney. Thank you Trenton!

Gilbert Adams was my Lawyer in a personal Injury lawsuit. I could honestly not have had a better Attorney handle my case. He is honest, forthright, he took a real personal interest in me as not just a client, but as a valued person. I could go on and on, but I can sume it up and say he was absolutely the Attorney I could have hired in Texas, or any other state in the union. Thanks, Mark Godsey

This lawyer saved my life at a very bad time when I sustained a terrible injury. Mr. Adams supported me in every way imaginable. He is a warrior and was able to obtain a large settlement which was much larger than the insurance co wanted to pay. These lawyers have deep roots roots in SE Texas which I think also helped. These answered my questions, kept me informed and did refer my case out to some unknown lawyer. I am very pleased with their representation. If you need a fighter on your side, better hire Gilbert Adams

Gilbert Adams came highly recommended when my mother fell on an unsafe, wet floor at a local restaurant causing head injuries. We decided to put our trust in him. After about a year of litigation against the restaurant, its insurance company decided to pay the policy limits of $1,000,000.00 to my mom as a result of her serious injuries. Gilbert did a masterful job gathering the evidence to make a winning case. It was easy to see that Gilbert really cares about his clients and their case. Thank you very much for taking care of my parents and for obtaining a recovery that will take care of my mom and which gives the entire Family peace of mind.

I highly recommend Brian Mazzola, Attorney at Law.

I had nothing short of a great experience with Dan Ducote. I spoke to a couple of other lawyers before working with Dan but none of them seemed to take a personal interest in my case the way Dan did. Dan was right beside me every step of the way in dealing with my case, knew exactly how to get the law to work for me and got me a great result. From the very start Dan was straightforward, friendly, honest and genuinely concerned about me and my family. I can't imagine going to anyone else if I ever have another issue.

Her passion for justice has forever changed the way I view the legal profession.

Jane Leger was a blessing to me and my family in a most traumatic time of our lives. After my devastating wrongful termination from a major company, Mrs. Leger helped me to take on what most people would have considered an impossible task. This fight against this major company would have most attorneys cower away. But even in the shadow of this daunting task, Mrs. Leger not only agreed to help me, she succeeded in profound fashion well beyond my expectations and the expectations of many others. Mrs. Leger was able to accomplish this victory with her calm reassuring demeanor, complimented by her vast legal experience and her astute intellect. I truly believe my results would have been less without her as my attorney. I would highly recommend Mrs. Jane Leger for anyone with the need for competent and confident legal representation.

Jane is more than the best lawyer in the country, she also became my friend over the 8 years my family battled a huge corporation over a catastrophic injury. This company she battled would try to make our family concede but Jane would not let us give up. She worked tirelessly on our case and not only fought for a significant monetary compensation, but also for justice so other workers would not be injured. Her knowledge of the system and her passion for justice were displayed brilliantly during our trial. Jane changed our lives forever and our family is forever grateful.

Charlton has to be one of the brightest, wittiest and most dedicated Attorneys I have ever experienced. Countless times through the day and night Charlton has reached out to me not only pertaining to my case but to me personally as far as my well being and just being sure I was okay in life. In the court his tenacity and ability to convey the details of the the evidence to the jury is unparalleled. It seemed at times he was so clever he actually had the defense attorney explaining the evidence more in my favor than his own client! To sum it up, I would have to say not only will I hire Charlton again but it’s not a day go by that I do not refer someone to him. His service and overall concern is unmatched by far with anything I have ever experienced or witnessed!

I was a young woman and a newlywed when I lost my husband in a bulldozer accident. I hired Mr. Hornsby to represent me in this difficult time. He cared about me and helped me get through it. I was referred to him by one of his church members who said he was a good and honest man and a good lawyer. She was right. He was all of those things. But to see him in court in front of the judge and jury was truly special. If I ever need a lawyer again I will hire Mr. Hornsby and if you are looking for a lawyer you should hire him too!!!

What a Car Accident Lawyer Can Do for You
A car accident lawyer specializes in representing individuals who have been injured in motor vehicle accidents. These lawyers help victims secure compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, pain and suffering, and other losses resulting from a car crash. They also negotiate with insurance companies, investigate the cause of the accident, and, if necessary, represent clients in court to ensure they receive fair compensation.
If you've been injured in a car accident - whether as a driver, passenger, cyclist, or pedestrian - a car accident lawyer can help protect your rights, navigate the insurance claims process, and ensure you receive the compensation you're entitled to.
When Should I Hire a Car Accident Lawyer?
Consider hiring a car accident lawyer in several situations, especially when the accident results in injuries, property damage, or disputes with the insurance company. Key situations include:
- Serious injuries: If you’ve suffered significant injuries, such as broken bones, spinal injuries, or traumatic brain injuries, a lawyer can help you seek compensation for medical expenses, future treatment, and pain and suffering.
- Disputes with the insurance company: If your insurance claim has been denied or the insurance company offers an unreasonably low settlement, a lawyer can negotiate on your behalf to ensure you get fair compensation.
- Liability disputes: If the other driver’s insurance company is disputing fault or claiming you were partially at fault, a lawyer can gather evidence to prove the other party’s negligence.
- Wrongful death: If a loved one was killed in a car accident, a lawyer can help the family pursue a wrongful death claim to recover compensation for funeral expenses, loss of companionship, and other damages.
- Uninsured or underinsured driver: If the at-fault driver lacks sufficient insurance coverage, a lawyer can help you explore other compensation options, such as filing a claim with your own insurance company.
- Complex cases: Accidents involving multiple vehicles, commercial trucks, or complicated circumstances require legal expertise to manage complexities and hold all responsible parties accountable.
Hiring a lawyer early in the process can help ensure that your rights are protected and that you receive the full compensation you deserve.
What Does a Car Accident Lawyer Do?
A car accident lawyer provides various legal services to help injured individuals pursue compensation for their injuries and losses. Their responsibilities often include:
- Investigating the accident: Gathering evidence like police reports, witness statements, photos, and video footage to determine how the accident occurred and who was at fault.
- Filing insurance claims: Assisting clients in filing claims with their insurance company and the at-fault driver’s insurer to ensure all necessary documentation is submitted correctly.
- Negotiating settlements: Working with insurance adjusters to secure fair compensation for medical bills, property damage, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
- Calculating damages: Determining the full extent of your damages, including current and future medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, lost income, and non-economic damages like pain and suffering.
- Handling medical bills: Coordinating with healthcare providers to ensure your medical bills are paid and helping you avoid financial hardship during the claims process.
- Filing lawsuits: If the insurance company refuses a fair settlement, the lawyer can file a lawsuit and represent you in court.
- Representing you in court: Presenting your case before a judge and jury, providing evidence and witness testimony to prove negligence and your right to compensation.
How Are Car Accident Lawyers Paid?
Most car accident lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, meaning they only get paid if they win or settle your case. The key aspects include:
- Contingency fee: The lawyer’s fee is typically between 25% and 40% of the total settlement or award. You won't pay upfront fees; the lawyer's payment comes from the compensation they recover for you.
- No fee if no recovery: If the lawyer doesn’t secure compensation for you, you generally don't owe any legal fees.
- Case expenses: You may be responsible for certain costs related to your case, such as filing fees or expert witness fees. These are usually deducted from the settlement after the lawyer's fee is paid.
Discuss the fee structure during your initial consultation to understand how much you'll owe if your case is successful.
How Much Does a Car Accident Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a car accident lawyer is generally based on the contingency fee arrangement. General estimates include:
- Contingency fee percentage: Lawyers typically charge between 25% and 40% of the total settlement or award. For example, if you receive a $100,000 settlement and the lawyer's fee is 33%, the lawyer would receive $33,000, and you'd keep the remaining $67,000.
- Case expenses: Additional costs such as court filing fees, expert witness costs, and administrative fees can range from $1,000 to $10,000 or more, depending on the case complexity.
Ensure you get a clear explanation of fees and expenses during your consultation.
Top Questions to Ask a Car Accident Lawyer
Before hiring a car accident lawyer, consider asking the following questions:
-
What experience do you have with car accident cases?
Confirm the lawyer has handled cases similar to yours, especially involving serious injuries or complex liability issues. -
How do you charge for your services?
Understand the contingency fee percentage and any additional costs you may incur. -
What is the likelihood of success in my case?
Seek an honest assessment of your case's strengths and potential challenges. -
How long will the process take?
Get an estimate of the timeline for settling or taking the case to trial. -
Will you handle my case personally?
Ensure you know who will be managing your case and their level of involvement. -
What kind of compensation can I expect?
Ask about the types of damages you may be entitled to, including medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
How to Check the Credibility of a Car Accident Lawyer
To ensure you're hiring a reputable lawyer, take the following steps:
- Check their bar status: Verify with your state bar association that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing.
- Review their experience: Look for specialization in personal injury and car accident cases.
- Read client reviews: Consult platforms like Avvo or Martindale-Hubbell for testimonials and ratings.
- Ask for references: Request contact information of previous clients willing to discuss their experience.
- Check professional affiliations: Membership in organizations like the American Association for Justice (AAJ) indicates a commitment to the field.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To maximize the effectiveness of your initial meeting, bring the following:
- Police report: A copy of the accident report filed by the police.
- Medical records: Documentation of your injuries, treatments, and medical expenses.
- Photos and videos: Any visual evidence from the accident scene and of your injuries.
- Insurance information: Copies of your insurance policy and any correspondence with insurance companies.
- Witness information: Contact details and statements from any witnesses.
- List of questions: Prepared questions about your case and the legal process.
Being well-prepared helps the lawyer assess your case accurately and advise you on the best course of action.
