What we do.
What we do across Austin and Central Texas. Each of these turns on a different rule, and the rule is usually what decides the money.
Free Case ReviewHow We Help
Pick the one that sounds like your project.
If you are not sure which one your situation is, that is what a case review is for. You will be told when a claim is not worth bringing, too.
Car Accident Claims
Most Austin wrecks are fought over fault percentages and medical billing, not over whether the crash happened.
- Fault percentage: the § 33.001 analysis that decides the 51% question
- All available coverage identified, including your own UM/UIM policy
- Crash report, scene evidence, and vehicle data preserved before it is lost
Truck and 18-Wheeler Wrecks
A commercial wreck is a different case from a car wreck: more evidence, more insurance, and a defense team that arrives the same day.
- Spoliation letter sent immediately to preserve ELD, ECM, and dispatch data
- Federal compliance reviewed: hours of service, driver qualification, maintenance
- Every liable party identified, not only the driver
Wrongful Death Claims
Texas is specific about who may bring a wrongful death claim, and the list is shorter than most families expect.
- Who holds the claim determined under § 71.004 before anything is filed
- Wrongful death and survival claims structured properly from the start
- Estate opened and a representative appointed where a survival action requires it
Premises Liability
Whether a property owner owed you anything depends on why you were there, and that classification decides the case.
- Your legal status on the property established: invitee, licensee, or trespasser
- Surveillance video demanded in writing before the retention loop erases it
- Notice evidence gathered: incident reports, inspection logs, prior complaints
However You Found Us
One free visit tells you which of these you actually need.
Plenty of what we look at turns out to be fine, and we say so. When something does need work, you get the scope and the price before anything starts.
Free Case ReviewThe Same Steps, Every Time
The same steps, every claim.
- 01
Tell us what happened
A conversation, not an intake form. What happened, what hurts, and what the insurer has already said to you.
- 02
Evidence gets locked down
Preservation demands go out for video, truck data, and records while they still exist. This is the step that cannot wait.
- 03
Treatment and documentation
You get care. The claim gets built around the medical record, because that record is what the injury is worth on paper.
- 04
Demand, negotiation, or suit
A documented demand goes to the carrier. If the number is not serious, the case gets filed before the deadline, not after.
