No matter the type of accident that caused your accident, if someone else’s negligence was to blame, our San Antonio personal injury lawyers can help you pursue the compensation and justice you deserve.
Our Attorneys Can Handle the Insurance Company
In the days following your accident, you may be pressured into taking a settlement offer from the other party’s insurance company. This is done because the insurance company knows that you are in pain and worried about your financial future. Therefore, it is assumed that you will take the first deal you receive and try to move on with your life.
While it is certainly your right to take a quick settlement, it may not be the best possible offer. A San Antonio personal injury attorney who knows the law and how it applies in your case will fight for the maximum possible compensation while you focus on recovery.
We Can Help Gather Evidence to Bolster Your Case
An injury attorney from Zinda Law Group will encourage you to be seen by a doctor as soon as possible to establish that your injuries were caused by the negligent persons or company.
Our personal injury lawyers may also be able to find expert witnesses to testify on your behalf or find witnesses directly related to your case to offer additional testimony in court.
Physical evidence may also be used to help prove your case and cast doubt on any alternate theories presented in court. Ensure the best possible outcome for your case by getting a knowledgeable San Antonio personal injury lawyer from Zinda Law Group in your corner.
Our San Antonio Injury Lawyers Will Help Protect Your Rights
There are deadlines to file a personal injury claim, and our attorneys will help make sure that your case is filed before any statute of limitations expire. Our San Antonio accident attorneys can also inform you of the types of compensation that you may be entitled to and what parties may be liable.
For instance, if the driver who caused a car crash that led to your injuries was working at the time of the crash, his or her employer may be financially liable as well. If a doctor makes a mistake that leads to injuries, the hospital where he or she worked may also be held liable. Going after all responsible parties increases the odds that you get the damages you are entitled to.

What to Do After Being Injured in an Accident
If you have been injured in an accident, it is important to be aware of the fact that the steps you take immediately after may prove to be extremely important. Those steps may prove to be the deciding factors on whether or not you are successful in your claim. Some steps you may want to consider taking after being injured in an accident include:
1. Seek Medical Attention
Your first priority after being injured in an accident should be to seek medical attention as soon as possible. No matter how minimal the injury may appear at the time, it is possible that you are missing something. An experienced medical professional may be able to spot something the untrained eye wouldn’t pick up on. Your health and safety should be your primary concern, and therefore your first step after being injured in an accident should be to seek medical attention.
2. Report the Accident
Once all parties have received proper medical attention, your next step should be to immediately report the accident to the necessary authorities. If the accident is a car accident, you should consider calling the police. If the accident was a slip and fall, you should consider contacting the property owner. Depending on the type of accident the party to whom you report the accident may change. If you find yourself confused as to who you should report the accident to, consider contacting a personal injury attorney as soon as possible.
3. Document the Accident
If you intend to seek compensation for any injuries you sustained as a result of the accident, you should also consider documenting the accident. This includes taking pictures of the scene of the accident and any potential causes of the injury. You should also reach out to any witnesses and document their recollection of events and make sure to acquire their contact information.
4. Contact a Personal Injury Attorney
If you decide that you want to seek compensation for any injuries you sustained, one of the smartest choices you can make is contacting a personal injury attorney. An experienced personal injury attorney 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 a claim commonly brought under a theory of negligence. Negligence claims have four common elements that are necessary to be proven in order for a plaintiff to be successful in their claim. The elements of negligence are:
- The defendant owed a legal duty to the plaintiff
- The defendant breached that duty
- The plaintiff suffered an injury
- The plaintiff’s injury was caused by the defendant’s breach of duty
In a personal injury claim, the plaintiff must prove each of the above elements. Once these elements have been proven, the next question is how much damages 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?
If you are injured in an accident, you may be wondering through who can be able to seek compensation. When considering this, it is important to be aware that every case is different and therefore the party through which compensation may be sought from one case may be different in another. Common parties who you may be able to sue for your personal injury include:
- The other driver in a car accident
- A property owner in a premises liability claim
- A dog owner in a dog bite injury claim
- Your employer
- Your doctor
- A manufacturer, wholesaler, or retailer
How to File a Personal Injury Claim
If you decide that you want to move forward in filing a personal injury claim it is important to be aware that some steps may prove crucial. The steps you take when filing your personal injury claim may prove to be the deciding factors in whether or not you are successful. Common steps taken to file a personal injury claim include:
1. Speak to Your Insurance Company
If you have been injured in an accident and you are considering filing a claim, one of your first steps should be to reach out to your insurance company. It is possible that your insurance policy will cover the injury. On the other hand, it is also possible that your insurance company will not cover the claim and therefore you may want to consider filing a legal claim.
2. Consult an Attorney
If you find yourself to be confused as to whether or not you want to file a claim and how to file such a claim, consulting an attorney may be in your best interest. An experienced personal injury attorney can explain to you the complexities of the process and help you better understand potential outcomes. If you ever find yourself to be confused as to what to do next, you should consider consulting an experienced personal injury attorney.
Personal Injury Compensation
If you have been injured in an accident, it is important to be aware of the areas of compensation you may be able to seek. Every state has different laws that govern how compensation can be acquired and Texas is no different. Common areas of damages in personal injury claims in Texas include:
- Medical expenses
- Lost wages
- Pain and suffering
- Anguish
If you have questions as to what compensation may be available to you, consider consulting an experienced personal injury attorney as soon as possible.
I had the best experience with the Zinda law Group! Shivangi Was the the most professional and caring attorney anyone could ask for! She did everything in a timely matter and answered all the questions I could ever think of. Her paralegal, Danielle was always there for me throughout the entire process. She worked around my schedule and was very consistent about helping me in any way she could. If I could give this team 6 stars I would!! I highly recommend to anyone looking for the best team! I had the privilege of working with Zinda Law Group recently and was thoroughly impressed with the level of service and support they provided. When we began, I had reservations about the likelihood of reaching a settlement, but the team's professionalism, intelligence, and dedication quickly put those doubts to rest. They went above and beyond to ensure that I was informed and comfortable throughout the process, and their hard work and strong advocacy ultimately led to a successful outcome. I cannot thank Zinda Law Group and their staff enough for their exceptional service and support, and I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of legal assistance. Their commitment to their clients and their willingness to fight for what's right truly sets them apart. In short, I give them a rating of five stars for their outstanding work.

These attorneys worked very hard and efficiently to bring the justice that they saw fit. When I had a question they explained in terms I understood and not above and beyond me. I appreciate it when people can come down to my level and not intimidate and use trepidation on someone in feeling like they are the fly while they're the spider waiting for the right moment for the fly to walk into its web.Neil and Shivangi always whenever they called asked me how I was at the beginning of our conversations and is there anything I needed at the end of each call. Each call they made to me, was made very professional, personable and felt heart felt as if you were part of the family.

After what felt like such a short amount of time, they were able to win every last penny from the "bad guys" insurance (loved that term). I couldn't happier, and even though I went through something traumatic, it was still the best experience I could have ever asked for. Thank you Michael and everyone that helped with my case, yall are the best!! My attorney was Christina , she and her team gave me the best outcome for my case .I am giving an honesty review at first I was very upset because I kept getting moved around and I never knew who I was talking to because they switch attorneys and kept changing my paralegals.. I was going to go with another law firm but Christina helped me with my case from then on out and she worked around my schedule to talk to me which I appreciate. Also my last law firm took 30 percent, and this one took 33 percent which I wasn’t to happy so just a heads up. Overall I rate this 4 stars cause I’m just happy the case is over with and I get to go back to my life.Update: I just received another call from my attorney and they have worked to negotiate my case with the billing and have put more money in my pocket. All the money that I had spent while working on the case has came back to me. I can fully move on and say that I have gain every penny that was lose during those hard times. I’m so happy and thankful to Zinda law group!!!!!! Zinda Law Group did an excellent job with my case. The staff was super friendly and super effective as far as communicating with me throughout the entire case. I highly recommend Zinda Law Group for your next case and for any of your future cases. 5 Stars across the board thank you so much for everything! Joh Harper, Priyonka Bhikha, and the rest of the team gave my case a quick and satisfactory conclusion. The attorney, Mr. Harper did an absolutely amazing job keeping me on the same page as far as the case goes. Honestly, if anybody is hurt in a car wreck or another personal injury case, I WILL STRONGLY RECOMMEND THAT YOU SPEAK TO THEM. I was in a motor vehicle collision about two years ago. From the minute I picked up the phone to speak with a representative to the case finally settling, it was a great experience. I worked with Burgess Williams and his team (Kathy, Ryan, and Linda) throughout the process. They were all very professional and helpful when I needed them the most. Great Firm. I was in motorcycle accident- T-boned at a full stop with my daughter riding on back. Zinda's team was instantly responsive. Christina was very compassionate, organized and scheduled time before every legal event to discuss goals and overview. The process was 2 years but during that time the lawyers and staff (John and Shane were also great) were always available and understanding. The team is focused on doing what is right and by the book. I would highly recommend this firm to anyone who is suffering from a motorcycle accident. Jason Aldridge and his paralegal Mara did an absolutely amazing job on my case. They were very responsive to all emails, calls and even texts. They treated me with dignity and respect from start to finish. I never once felt like my case was at the back of the list or anything. Not only did they explain and walked me through everything, they got me the help I needed and a final outcome over what I had expected. I would highly recommend this law firm, Jason and Mara to anyone seeking legal assistance. Highly Recommended-100% Satisfied!.From the initial phone call I felt confident I chose the right firm. They explained the process and I was always in the loop, even when we were at a stand still. Very grateful I was quickly referred to them by a friend who had a similar case. Both of us are happy with the end result. Thank you! My team of lawyer were very professional and communicated extremely clearly. They kept me updated on their status and did not make me worry at all about my situation. They explained everything to me very well and put things into simple terms for my understanding. I am very satisfied with their performance. I would recommend them to anyone that's been involved in an accident and feels skeptical in engaging an attorney.When one gets into an accident, you're traumatized, confused, angry and helpless.That was me last year, getting all kinds of advice becomes your next norm, to use or not to use an attorney.I was in so much pain from my injuries but at the same time knew I had to act fast.I called Zinda Law Group for consultation, they took my case seriously and treated me with respect, they were very professional and understanding.Elizabeth, kudos to you, you're true to your word, Integrity should be your last name.Jason Aldridge my attorney went to work immediately, he assured me that all be well and I should concentrate on my healing and he will do the rest. Thank your Sir, You did just that.His team, Mara, Zuleyma and Andrew, they all become my support system, so professional and lots of respect in each and everyphone call or email. Thank you guys.I would recommend anyone to use Zinda Law Group. I honestly loved not dealing with the hospital bills while I was recuperating. It gave me peace of mind going through this process and Zinda took care of everything. They found awesome health providers for me and haven't had to worry about anything while they've been taking my case. I've been well informed, communicated with, responded to and understood by Zinda. They have been efficient and effective while working on my case and I'm so glad I choose to go with this law firm. When I was injured in a car accident in March of 2020 the insurance companies were not concerned with my well being. I called Zinda Law group & spoke with Reagan, who went over my concerns & later had Jono contact me. After reviewing my information with Jono my case was immediately put in motion. I worked mainly with Sam Thomas who truly was a blessing to me, he was very supportive & genuinely concerned with my well being, everything wasn't simply about the case it was about me being healed & getting the proper treatment that I needed. Sam was also emotionally supportive when I went through several losses in my family & is a great friend. In all everyone was extremely supportive & all worked for me which was quite a different legal experience for me from Law groups in my past. I was well supported, always informed, treated with respect & made the priority in all decisions. Zinda Law Group made sure I was compensated completely & that I didn't have financial stresses over hospital bills after all was said & done. Sam, Katrina, Mary Catherine, Reagan & Jono I just want to thank you & all of Zinda for the incredible experience & the wonderful caring people that you all are, you are truly Golden in your field. I am so glad I got in touch with Zinda! My car accident occurred just 4 days prior to moving, during the busiest week of the year at my job, and just a week before the quarantine was declared a new reality for all of us. Everyone at Zinda remained persistent, supportive, and most of all advocated for me throughout such a chaotic time. I’ll always be grateful for the care they took to make sure my health and well-being were taken care of. So super grateful to know that a split second mistake someone else made doesn’t have to dictate my life. Thanks! My experience with Zinda Law Group was better than expected. After an accident that totalled my car, I reached out and was paired with a wonderful attorney. She communicated frequently and responded to my calls and texts in a timely manner. She was friendly, knowledgeable, and answered all of my questions. I was kept in the loop during every step of the process. I would call Zinda Law if I ever need this type of support again. I had an excellent experience working with the attorneys at Zinda Law Group! They were knowledgeable, professional and patient. They walked me through every step of the long process of getting treatment after my car wreck and kept me updated with timeframes and next steps. I would absolutely recommend anyone working with them! I was referred here by a family member. Our lawyer jason and his team did and amazing job. They kept me updated in everything made sure I understood what was going on. My son was hit by a van in the hospital jason came right over. He's awesome so much down to earth straight forward. I would recommend him and his firm to everyone and I have thank you zinda but most of all thank you Jason for being there for us for being a friend Zinda Law Group was recommended to me from another satisfied client and I certainly received excellent service. The attorneys and staff are very proactive with communication and I knew every step of the way what was happening on my case. I never felt pressured with decision making and they went above & beyond to answer questions with satifactory explanations. This is a very professional group of attorneys & support staff. In addition, they were willing to meet me at a location more convenient for me. I appreciated their concern for my time. Could not speak highly enough of the firm. I was involved in my first accident and thankfully had Zinda Law Group supporting me through the scary time. Jono took care of me every step of the way. He made me feel like I was a priority through the entire process. A big thank you to Jono and the rest of the Zinda crew! ‹

FAQs
When do I hire a personal injury attorney?
As soon as possible. If you have been injured in an accident one of your first steps should always be to consult a personal injury attorney. An experienced personal injury attorney can help you every step of the way and help you estimate how much compensation you may able to seek and provide you with a relatively accurate timeline.
What is the difference between personal injury and bodily injury?
Bodily injury is different from personal injury because it deals more specifically with an injury to the body that is caused by the actions of someone else. The term bodily injury refers to the specific injuries sustained. Alternatively, personal injury is an area of civil law in which victims are able to seek compensation for the injuries they sustain.
How long does it take to get a personal injury check?
It depends. Every case is different and therefore there is not a uniform answer to when you will be receiving your personal injury check if your case settles. If you want an accurate estimate as to when you may be receiving your personal injury check, consider speaking with your attorney.
