    D’Arcy’s Injury Story
    D’Arcy’s Injury Story

    D’Arcy Maiangowi was working in an oil field when a forklift pinned him against the bed of a trailer. Due to the remote location, he was unable to receive medical attention at a hospital for more than two hours. His job’s workers’ compensation doctor refused to give him adequate treatment, leading to him losing his leg after his conditioned worsened in the following weeks. This loss could have been prevented completely if not for the greed of insurance companies…

    Manuel’s Injury Story
    Manuel’s Injury Story

    Manuel Galvan cleaned oil tanks for a living, a necessary part of Texas’s oil industry. This is a difficult, dangerous, and often unrecognized profession. He and his crew always made a point to inspect their work area to make sure safety protocols were being followed. One morning, on a job in Corpus Christie, while he was on his job site, an explosion occurred. He felt flames on his face, which was on fire. He put that fire out, but realized that his legs and torso were burning as well…

    Shenequwa’s Injury Story
    Shenequwa’s Injury Story

    So on September the 20th, 2019, my friend was coming to pick me up from my mom’s. Of course, we’re like sisters, so she was like, “I’m not driving. I’m tired. I want you to drive.” We were heading from New Waverley to Houston, so we were going 45 South. In between Conroe and the Woodlands from nowhere the big truck just came over out of the blue, so it was like thunder, like boom, and my friend who was kind of resting, laid back in the seat, just came forward…

    I want to express my sincere appreciation to my attorneys, Omar and Steve and his entire team for the outstanding work they did on my personal injury case. Austin was extremely helpful and patient throughout this process. From the very beginning, they were professional, supportive, and truly dedicated to helping me.

    They always kept me informed, answered all my questions, and made sure I understood every step of the process. Their hard work and commitment made a difficult situation much easier to handle, and I am truly grateful for everything they have done for me.

    I highly recommend Omar and his team to anyone who needs a reliable, experienced, and caring personal injury attorney. They go above and beyond for their clients, and you can trust that your case will be in great hands.

    How Do I Know If I Have a Personal Injury Case?

    If another party’s negligence caused your injury, you may have a valid personal injury claim. The key factors are whether a duty of care existed, whether it was breached, and whether that breach directly caused your harm. The best way to know for certain is to schedule a free consultation with our team.

    I Do Not Feel Hurt at the Moment. Do I Have a Case?

    Many serious injuries, including soft tissue damage, internal injuries, and traumatic brain injuries, do not cause immediate symptoms. Adrenaline can mask pain in the hours following an accident. Seeking prompt medical evaluation documents the connection between the accident and any injuries that emerge, which is critical to protecting a future claim.

    How Long Do I Have to File a Personal Injury Lawsuit in Texas?

    In most cases, Texas law allows victims two years from the date of the injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. Missing this deadline generally bars recovery entirely, regardless of how strong the underlying claim may be. Certain circumstances, such as injuries to minors or claims against government entities, may affect that timeline. Consulting a personal injury lawyer in Houston early helps ensure your rights are preserved before any deadline closes.

    What Should I Do After an Accident in Houston?

    The steps taken immediately after an accident directly affect the strength of any future claim. Key actions to take include:

    • Seek medical attention right away, even if you feel fine.
    • Report the accident to the appropriate authority (police, employer, or property owner).
    • Document the scene with photographs and gather witness contact information.
    • Avoid making statements about fault to the other party or their insurer.
      Contact a personal injury attorney before speaking with any insurance adjuster.

    Acting quickly is important because critical evidence, including surveillance footage, physical evidence, and witness recollections can change or disappear in the days following an accident.

    What Is My Personal Injury Case Worth?

    The value of a personal injury claim depends on the severity of your injuries, their impact on your life, the extent of your financial losses, and the strength of the evidence. Recoverable damages may include medical expenses, lost income, reduced earning capacity, physical pain, and emotional impact. Cases involving permanent injuries or long-term disability typically carry a higher recovery value.

    Do I Need to Go to Court to Win My Case?

    Not necessarily. Many personal injury claims are resolved through negotiated settlements before a trial is ever set. At Kherkher Garcia LLP, our attorneys are prepared to take every case to trial if a fair resolution cannot be reached. That trial readiness consistently influences settlement outcomes, as opposing counsel recognizes our team will not accept an inadequate offer.

    How Much Does It Cost to Hire a Personal Injury Lawyer?

    Kherkher Garcia LLP handles personal injury cases on a contingency fee basis. There are no upfront costs and no out-of-pocket fees. Attorney fees apply only when recovery is obtained in your case.

    How Long Will It Take to Settle My Case?

    The timeline for a personal injury claim varies based on the complexity of the case, the severity of the injuries, and how the opposing party responds. Straightforward claims may resolve in a matter of months. Cases involving serious injuries, disputed liability, multiple responsible parties, or litigation may take considerably longer. Our team provides consistent communication throughout the process so you always know where your case stands and what to expect at each stage.

    What If the Insurance Company Blames Me?

    Texas follows a modified comparative fault rule, which means your recovery is reduced by your percentage of responsibility for the accident. You may still pursue compensation as long as your share of fault does not exceed 50 percent. Insurance companies routinely attempt to shift blame to reduce their payout. Our attorneys counter those tactics with evidence and a well-documented account of the facts.

    What If a Loved One Died Because of Negligence?

    When a death results from another party’s negligence, surviving family members may have the right to pursue a wrongful death claim. Recoverable damages may include funeral costs, lost financial support, loss of companionship, and mental anguish. In some cases, a separate survival action may also be filed on behalf of the deceased’s estate to recover damages the deceased sustained before death.

    What Is Negligence and How Do I Prove It?

    Negligence is the failure to behave with the level of care that a reasonable person would have exercised under the same or similar circumstances. Both actions and omissions can be negligent.
    Proving negligence in a Texas personal injury case requires establishing four elements:

    • Duty: The defendant owed a legal duty of care to the injured party.
    • Breach: The defendant failed to meet that standard of care.
    • Causation: The breach directly caused the injury.
    • Damages: The injured party suffered actual harm as a result.

    Evidence used to establish these elements may include accident reports, surveillance footage, witness statements, expert testimony, and medical records.

    What Damages Can I Recover After an Accident in Houston?

    Damages in a Texas personal injury claim fall into two primary categories. Under Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code § 41.001, “economic damages” refers to compensatory damages intended to address actual financial loss. Non-economic damages address losses that are real but not easily calculated in dollar terms. Recoverable damages may include:

    • Medical expenses, including emergency treatment, surgery, and ongoing rehabilitation
    • Lost wages and reduced future earning capacity
    • Physical pain and long-term limitations
    • Emotional distress and mental anguish
    • Permanent disability or disfigurement
    • Loss of companionship in wrongful death cases

    The full scope of recovery depends on the facts of your case and the strength of supporting evidence.
