Austin Personal Injury Lawyers

Seek immediate medical treatment—even for minor injuries. Report the incident (call 911 or file an injury report), document the scene with photos, collect contact information from witnesses, and limit any recorded statements or communication with insurance. Then contact an experienced Austin personal injury attorney promptly.

Under Texas Civil Practice & Remedies Code § 16.003, you generally have two years from the date of the incident to file. Acting quickly helps gather evidence and safeguard your right to compensation.

You may be entitled to economic damages (medical expenses, lost wages, future rehab costs) and non-economic damages (pain and suffering, emotional trauma). In certain cases involving gross negligence, punitive damages may also apply.

Yes. Texas follows a modified comparative negligence rule, meaning you can recover damages as long as you’re less than 50% responsible—but your award will be reduced proportionally.

We operate on a contingency basis: legal fees are withheld from your recovery only if we win or settle. You pay nothing upfront and are not billed for case costs unless there is a recovery.

You can recover economic damages (medical expenses, lost wages) and non-economic damages (pain and suffering, emotional distress). In some cases, punitive damages may be awarded. Our Austin personal injury attorneys will assess your case to maximize your compensation.

While it may seem easier to accept a quick settlement and move on, it’s rarely in your best interest to do so without consulting an experienced personal injury lawyer. Insurance companies often offer lowball settlements early on, hoping you’ll take less than you deserve before understanding the full extent of your injuries or long-term costs. By accepting the first offer, you could leave significant compensation on the table—money for future medical treatments, lost earning capacity, or ongoing pain and suffering. At The Law Giant, we thoroughly evaluate your case, calculate your total damages, and negotiate aggressively. Before accepting any settlement, contact our Austin personal injury lawyers for a free consultation.

The value of your case depends on factors like the severity of your injuries, medical costs, lost income, and emotional impact. Our attorneys will provide a detailed assessment to determine your claim's worth.

While small claims can be handled alone, insurance companies often undervalue claims—especially for complex injuries or permanent harm. Having an attorney with Austin-specific knowledge significantly increases your chances of a full, fair recovery.
