Our San Antonio Attorneys Can Negotiate a Fair Settlement With the Insurance Company

In the days following your accident, you may be pressured into accepting a settlement offer from the at-fault party’s insurance company. This is usually done because the adjuster knows you are in pain and worried about your financial future. Because you are in a vulnerable situation, they assume you will take the first deal you receive and try to move on with your life.

While it is certainly your right to settle quickly, it isn’t the best decision. A San Antonio personal injury attorney who knows the law and how it applies to your case will fight for fair compensation while you focus on recovery.

We Can Help Gather Evidence to Bolster Your Case

An attorney from our law firm will encourage you to see a doctor as soon as possible to establish that a negligent person or company caused your condition.

Our San Antonio personal injury lawyers can gather evidence such as the police report and may also be able to find expert witnesses to testify on your behalf. They may even find witnesses directly related to your case who can testify in court.

Physical evidence can also help prove your case and cast doubt on any alternate theories presented in court. Ensure the best possible outcome for your case by hiring a knowledgeable San Antonio attorney to represent you.

Our San Antonio Lawyers Will Help Protect Your Rights

There are deadlines to file a personal injury claim, and our attorneys will help ensure your case is filed before the statute of limitations runs out. Our San Antonio accident attorneys can also inform you of the types of compensation you may be entitled to and what parties may be liable.

For instance, if the driver who caused your car or truck accident was working at the time of the collision, their employer may also be financially liable. Likewise, if a doctor makes a mistake that harms you, the hospital where they worked may be liable.

Going after all responsible parties will increase your odds of getting the damages you are entitled to.

What to Do After Being Injured in an Accident in San Antonio

If you have been hurt in an accident, taking certain steps immediately afterward is important. Decisions you make early in your case may be the deciding factors in whether or not you are successful in your claim.

Steps you may want to consider taking after getting hurt in an accident include:

Seeking Medical Attention

Your priority after being harmed in an accident should be to seek medical attention immediately. No matter how minimal the injury may appear at first, you may be missing something.

An experienced medical professional can spot something the untrained eye wouldn’t pick up on. Your health and safety should be your primary concern; therefore, your first priority after being injured in an accident should be seeking medical attention.

Reporting the Accident

Once all parties have received proper medical attention, your next step should be to report the accident to the necessary authorities. If the accident is a car or truck accident, you should consider calling the police.

Similarly, you should consider contacting the property owner if the accident was a slip and fall. Depending on the type of accident, the party to whom you report the accident may change. If you are confused about who you should report the accident to, consider contacting an attorney as soon as possible.

Documenting the Incident

If you intend to seek compensation for any injuries you sustained due to the accident, you should also consider documenting the accident. This includes taking pictures of the accident scene and any visible injuries.

You should also reach out to witnesses, document their recollections of events, and acquire their contact information.

Contacting a San Antonio Personal Injury Attorney

If you are seeking compensation for any damages you sustained, one of the smartest choices you can make is to contact an experienced San Antonio attorney. A qualified lawyer can help simplify the process and help you better understand your options and potential outcomes.

Always remember that you don’t have to go through this process alone, and a personal injury attorney can be with you every step of the way.

Determining Liability

A personal injury claim is commonly brought under the theory of negligence. Negligence claims have four common elements that must be proven for a plaintiff to succeed in their claim. The elements of negligence are:

The defendant owed a legal duty to the accident victim.
The defendant breached that reasonable duty of care.
The plaintiff suffered an injury that resulted in damages.
The defendant’s breach resulted in the plaintiff’s injury.

In a personal injury claim, the plaintiff must prove the above elements. Once these elements have been proven, the next question is how much money should be awarded to the plaintiff. This is generally a separate question that may be determined using additional facts.

Who Can I Sue for My Personal Injury?

You may wonder who to go after for compensation if you are injured in an accident. When considering this, it is important to understand that every case is different. Therefore, the party through whom compensation may be sought in one case may be different from another.

Common parties you may be able to sue for your damages include:

The other driver involved in your car accident.
A property owner in a premises liability claim.
A dog owner in a dog bite claim.
Your employer if you were hurt in a workplace accident.
Your doctor if you are a victim of medical malpractice.
A manufacturer, wholesaler, or retailer that sold you a defective product.

How to File a Personal Injury Claim in Texas

If you decide to move forward in filing a personal injury claim, it is important to be aware that certain steps may prove crucial. One of the steps you take when filing your claim could be the deciding factor in whether or not you are successful.

Common steps taken to file a personal injury claim include:

Speaking to Your Insurance Company

If you have been injured in an accident and are considering filing a claim, one of your first steps should be to contact your insurance company.

Your insurance policy may cover the accident. On the other hand, it is also possible that neither insurance company will cover your damages, and you will need to file a legal claim.

Consulting an Attorney

If you are confused about whether you want to file a claim and how to file one, consulting an attorney may be in your best interest.

An experienced attorney can explain the process’s complexities and help you better understand your options. If you are confused about what to do next, consider consulting an experienced attorney.

Pursuing Various Forms of Compensation

If you have been injured in an accident, it is important to be aware of the financial compensation that may be available to you. Every state has different laws that govern damages after an accident, and Texas is no different.

Recoverable damages in Texas personal injury claims often include the following:

Medical expenses
Loss of income
Pain and suffering
Mental anguish or emotional distress
Loss of consortium or companionship
Diminished quality of life
Burial and funeral expenses
Punitive damages

If you have questions about potential compensation in your case, consider consulting an experienced personal injury attorney as soon as possible.

Alexandria

I just wanted to say thank you so much to Ben Abbas and Neil Solomon. Since my fiance was hit by an 18-wheeler nearly lost his life and now struggles with persistent pain and has to use a cane on top of a litany of other health issues as a result of the accident, Ben and Neil fought hard on my fiance's case because it was a very complex case involving multiple parties. But not only did they fight hard for us on my fiance's case, when the man of the house and the breadwinner is unable to even walk without a walker for a little over a year and has had to spend two years fighting for disability, and as I've been supporting my fiance because that's what you do when you're loyal to who you love but it's difficult when you lose the breadwinner and they're not able to work, Ben and Neil helped us navigate the legal loan process and they have been instrumental in keeping us afloat. They always respond quickly often within a few minutes and get the paperwork processed almost every single time in the same day. We would have lost everything if it wasn't for them. We are so grateful for them and everything they have done for us. There are something like real life superheroes and if you're looking for a law firm from any kind of injury or accident, we strongly recommend them and Zinda Law Group. Because I can almost guarantee nobody will work harder for you than they will

How Long does a Personal Injury Claim Take in San Antonio?

A lawyer can work to create an estimated timeline to help you better understand the legal process and how it affects you. One time constraint to be aware of is the two-year statute of limitations for filing personal injury lawsuits as outlined in Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code §16.003

How Long does It Take to Obtain a Financial Settlement?
