He also worked with my son on his accident also. I would HIGHLY recommend Mr. Hatcher and Kena.

Mr. Hatcher and staff were very accommodating and helpful, listened to my concerns and helped get me to correct doctors and on the road to recovery. They took control and left pretty much everything to the lawyer and staff.

Mr. Jessup took care of my family's important needs, and now we can breath. The law seemed more to him than just a job-there was passion. He was able to explain many things that were affecting us. He explained how certain criminal activity was going to affect immigration needs, and after listening to his advice, we moved forward with his help. He resolved everything for us, and made sure we understood it. I thought it was going to be hard to find an honest attorney that could speak my husband's language (Spanish), but here was Mr. Jessup. We have found our attorney, and have already recommended him to friends that had similar needs. Thank you, Mr. Jessup!

I was severely injured while attending an event in Texas. The event was covered by insurance, but there was no response from the event promoter or their insurance company to my inquiries. Mr. Runge took my case and settled my claim professionally and expeditiously. He and his staff were always available to answer any questions I had. I highly recommend Mr. Runge.

Well, don't let this young man's age fool you. This skilled attorney is a dogged litigator!
We were denied coverage by our insurance on a claim for damage to a rental house that we own. The tenants left in the middle of the night, and left mountains of debris and severe damage to just about every room in the house, as well as totally destroying and removing the electric double-sized garage door, and stealing a major appliance.
What did Insurance Adjuster tell us after looking at the property? That it was "normal wear and tear", and the insurance company denied our claim.
We immediately engaged Mr. Runge, and almost immediately he set up a meeting at out rental house with the Insurance Adjuster. My wife and I were there, but we just stood by and let Carson Runge do what he does best - fight for his client!
As a result, within days, Mr. Runge informed us that the insurance company had agreed to a settlement, and not just a token amount. The amount we were awarded on our claim has enabled us to repair all of the damage done, and all of the costs of cleanup and restoration!
Over the last 40 years, I have needed to retain the services of an attorney at different times, but never have I retained an attorney who has gone over and above what was expected in order to make the client whole.
I can, without reservation, recommend Mr. Carson R. Runge!
Thank you, Carson!

I was injured in a fall. Tamer took the time to fully understand and research the circumstances in order to prosecute my case effectively. His compassion for me and my future, due to my injuries, was very much appreciated. He was always available for consultation, questions and explanation. He worked diligently to get my case settled. Hopefully, I'll never need another PI attorney but if I do, Tamer will be my only call.

Brian has represented our company, a major petrochemical corporation, for over 15 years. Litigation has included personal injury and exposure cases, contract disputes, pipeline incidents, and right-of-way matters. He has served both as defense and prosecuting attorney for us. His results have always been favorable. When compared to other attorneys we have had, there is absolutely no reservation in recommending Brian. In fact, I would characterize Brian as the best attorney that I have had, and I have had a lot of them.

Counsel has provided legal services for our company for several years. We are always well-represented in litigated matters and most recently tried a case to judgment before a jury and received a defense verdict. Counsel was well-prepared for the trial and kept the jury engaged in spite of adverse rulings from the bench.

I promise my words cannot convey the gratitude my family and I have for this anointed attorney, Jonathan Wharton! We had been cheated by and lost a lot of money due to a horrible contractor and an even worse attorney. I had almost given up. I felt like evil was winning, and I felt like I had failed my family. With very little faith, I called a successful attorney office my friend had suggested. That law firm told me that they did not practice that type of law, so they referred me to Jonathan Wharton. The first time I talked to him, he was finishing my sentences. I had been explaining my cry so much, it was refreshing to talk to someone who not only understood where I was coming from, but could state the law to combat the problem with the first conversation. Wharton addressed the “terrible” attorney with knowledge, skill set, and a command that she went days without a response. Then when she did respond, he met her with case law that shut her up! I felt like a kid saying, “My dad is stronger than your dad!” I had not felt this good in two years since the saga began. I found the strength to clean my apartment better, be truly present with my children, I laughed, and then I cried an ugly cry of gratitude. The relief I felt was God sent. The prayers I prayed, and for a stranger to come in and help us when those who I thought I could trust cheated us, helped me learn what trust looks like. I am sure I am going off on a tangent, but the contractor who built my house poorly and did not complete it is a preacher. The horrible attorney I hired was someone I knew from the small town where I graduated. Both failed me significantly. They knew that my husband had just died before our building the house and they knew that I had a child with special needs. Therefore, you would think they would lead with integrity. To this day, I have not physically met Jonathan. I tried him with the little faith I had left, and he led us out of a dark place with his skill set, knowledge, and a true calling for the job. If you want an attorney you can TRUST, who possess the understanding and follow through you expect from a “great” attorney, that is Jonathan Wharton. He responds quickly and effectively. Now, he is our first call for any legal solution because we know that he can handle the problem!

Mr. Robertson provided outstanding help in clearing up a medical debt problem caused by a hospital waiting to bill me for my son's automobile accident over 18 months after it happened. The hospital tried to claim that it could not file on Blue Cross Blue Shield and that I had to use the Personal Injury Settlement from State Farm, which had already been spent on medical copays. The hospital further claimed that I was trying to commit fraud by telling them to file on Blue Cross Blue Shield. Mr. Robertson promptly wrote them a letter that set them straight and ultimately forced the hospital to waive the bill, because it had waited too long to file on Blue Cross Blue Shield, which was no fault of mine. He kept me informed throughout the entire process. I recommend him with the utmost confidence.

Jason Parrish continues to be an outstanding attorney. He has now represented my brother on 2 felony charges and both times has gone above and beyond. Jason went to work the moment he was notified of the situation. On the most recent charge, he was able to get the charges reduced from a felony to a misdemeanor and once again keep him out of jail. Our family and my brother continue to be very grateful for Mr. Parrish. We appreciate his hard work and dedication to his clients.
Jason Parrish is extremely knowledgeable and will work to get you the best outcome for your case.

Goudarzi & Young were the first attorneys that I called when my mom was in an accident. I'm so happy that I did. Kelly was a great help. We didn't have to do anything mom, had a lot of appointments. It's been a long eight months, but worth it. If you get in an accident don't try to handle it yourself lawyer up.

#1 Lawyer for family in Longview! She and her husband will fight for a child with all their knowledge and heart. My first lawyer sold me out, which is normal for a small town for lawyers to settle cases according to who they know. Not the Kroscher's. My grandson was ripped out of our arms after his only active parent, my son, was killed. If it hadn't been for the Kroscher's we would have lost my grandson for good. He would have been left at the mercy of a parent who - well, his only saving grace was us and his Dad. If you love a child and want a lawyer that will truly fight for them and not cut a deal under the table these are the people for you
Our family is forever indebted to this family. Thank you Kroscher's.

What a Personal Injury Lawyer Can Do for You
A personal injury lawyer specializes in helping individuals who have been physically or emotionally injured due to the negligence or wrongful actions of another party. Whether you've been hurt in a car accident, suffered a slip and fall, or experienced medical malpractice, a personal injury attorney works to ensure you receive fair compensation for your injuries. They can help you recover damages for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other related expenses.
Personal injury lawyers act as your advocate, navigating the legal system on your behalf and dealing with insurance companies to ensure you get the compensation you deserve. They understand how to handle complex legal matters and help you avoid common pitfalls.
When Should I Hire a Personal Injury Lawyer?
Hiring a personal injury lawyer can be beneficial in many situations where you've been harmed due to another's negligence. Some key scenarios include:
- Severe injuries: If you've suffered significant or permanent injuries that result in substantial medical bills, a lawyer can help ensure you are fairly compensated.
- Long-term or permanent disability: Injuries that affect your ability to work or require ongoing medical treatment are complex, and a lawyer can help estimate long-term damages.
- Disputed liability: If the responsible party or their insurance company denies liability for your injury, a lawyer can gather evidence and advocate on your behalf.
- Insurance company lowball offers: Insurers often try to settle personal injury claims for as little as possible. A lawyer can negotiate to get you a fair settlement.
- Medical malpractice claims: Injuries caused by a doctor, nurse, or healthcare provider due to negligence require a personal injury lawyer experienced in medical malpractice law.
- Exposure to hazardous substances: If you've been injured due to exposure to toxins, chemicals, or dangerous substances, a lawyer can help pursue legal action.
Hiring a lawyer early in the process is crucial, especially if you're unsure of the full extent of your injuries or damages.
What Does a Personal Injury Lawyer Do?
A personal injury lawyer provides a wide range of services to guide you through the legal process and maximize your compensation. They can:
- Evaluate your case: A lawyer will assess the strength of your claim and determine whether you have a viable case.
- Investigate the incident: Gathering evidence such as police reports, witness statements, medical records, and expert opinions is key to building a strong case.
- Negotiate with insurance companies: Lawyers handle communications with insurance companies to ensure you receive a fair settlement and aren't taken advantage of.
- File a lawsuit if necessary: If a fair settlement can't be reached, the lawyer can file a personal injury lawsuit on your behalf and represent you in court.
- Help calculate damages: This includes medical expenses, lost wages, future medical needs, pain and suffering, and emotional distress.
- Prepare and file legal documents: Lawyers handle all the paperwork and deadlines associated with your case, including filing motions and discovery requests.
- Represent you at trial: If your case goes to trial, the lawyer will argue your case before a judge and jury to obtain the compensation you deserve.
How Are Personal Injury Lawyers Paid?
Most personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis. This means they only get paid if they win your case, either through settlement or a court judgment. Here’s how it works:
- Contingency fee percentage: The lawyer will take a percentage of the settlement or award, typically between 25% and 40%, depending on the complexity of the case and the stage at which it's resolved.
- Costs and expenses: In addition to the contingency fee, the lawyer may deduct other costs associated with the case, such as filing fees, expert witness fees, and court costs. These expenses are often advanced by the lawyer and repaid out of the settlement.
- No upfront payment: Since the lawyer’s fee is contingent on winning, you usually don’t pay anything upfront.
Always discuss the lawyer’s fee structure during your consultation to avoid surprises.
How Much Does a Personal Injury Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a personal injury lawyer depends on the specifics of your case and the lawyer’s fee structure. However, since most personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, the amount you pay will depend on the outcome of your case. Here are some general guidelines:
- Contingency fees: Typically range from 25% to 40% of the settlement or award. The percentage may increase if the case goes to trial or requires an appeal.
- Other costs: In addition to the lawyer's fee, you may be responsible for case-related expenses such as expert witness fees, medical record retrieval fees, and court costs. These are often deducted from your settlement, so you won't have to pay out of pocket.
While the cost may seem high, hiring an experienced lawyer can significantly increase the amount you recover, making it a worthwhile investment.
Top Questions to Ask a Personal Injury Lawyer
Before hiring a personal injury lawyer, it's essential to ask questions to ensure you’re choosing the right representation. Here are some important questions to ask:
-
What is your experience with personal injury cases like mine?
Make sure the lawyer has handled cases involving similar injuries or accidents. -
What is your fee structure?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges a contingency fee and what percentage they will take from any settlement or award. -
How long will my case take?
While it's hard to predict, a lawyer can give you an estimate based on similar cases they’ve handled. -
How often do you take cases to trial?
Some lawyers prefer to settle quickly, while others are more comfortable going to court if necessary. -
Will you personally handle my case?
In larger firms, junior lawyers or paralegals may handle some aspects of your case, so it's important to know who will be managing your claim. -
Do you have references from past clients?
Speaking with past clients can provide valuable insight into the lawyer’s effectiveness and professionalism.
How to Check the Credibility of a Personal Injury Lawyer
To ensure you’re hiring a credible personal injury lawyer, take the following steps:
- Check bar association records: Verify that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing with your state’s bar association. Look for any history of disciplinary actions.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Online platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, and Google reviews can provide insight into the lawyer's reputation and client satisfaction.
- Look at their track record: Review their experience with personal injury cases, particularly how many cases they’ve successfully resolved or taken to trial.
- Ask for references: Credible lawyers should be willing to provide references from past clients who can vouch for their work.
- Check professional memberships: Lawyers who are members of respected organizations, like the American Association for Justice (AAJ), often have a solid reputation in the field.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To get the most out of your first meeting with a personal injury lawyer, prepare the following:
- Detailed account of the accident: Write down everything you remember about the incident, including dates, times, and locations. Include any witnesses or police reports if available.
- Medical records and bills: Bring any documentation of your injuries, treatments, and associated medical costs.
- Insurance information: Provide your insurance details and any communication you’ve had with the other party’s insurance company.
- Employment and income records: If your injury has impacted your ability to work, bring proof of lost wages or reduced earning capacity.
- Photos or videos: If you have photos of the accident scene, your injuries, or property damage, bring them to your consultation.
- Questions for the lawyer: Prepare a list of questions to ask, including how the lawyer will handle your case and what you can expect in terms of timeline and outcome.
By preparing thoroughly for your first consultation, you’ll help the lawyer understand your case more quickly and get a better sense of your legal options.
