How We Handle Your Case
Every claim is different, but most follow a similar path. Knowing what comes next makes the process less stressful.
- Free consultation. You tell us what happened. We tell you honestly whether you have a case worth pursuing, and we answer your questions. There is no cost and no obligation.
- Investigation. We gather the crash report, medical records, witness statements, photographs, and any video or vehicle data that exists. In trucking cases, we move quickly to preserve records that carriers are only required to keep for a few months.
- Building your claim. We document the full extent of your injuries and losses, including future medical care and lost earning capacity, and work with medical and reconstruction experts when a case calls for it.
- Demand and negotiation. We present the insurance company with a documented demand and handle every conversation with adjusters on your behalf.
- Settlement or trial. Most cases resolve without a courtroom. If the insurer will not offer what your claim is worth, Troy is prepared to file suit and try the case.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does it cost to hire your firm?
Nothing upfront. We work on a contingency fee basis, which means our fee comes out of a recovery rather than out of your pocket. If we do not recover compensation for you, you owe us nothing. Your initial consultation is always free.
How long do I have to file a claim in Texas?
Generally two years from the date of the injury. Shorter deadlines can apply in some situations, particularly when a government entity is involved, where written notice may be required within months. Evidence also disappears well before any legal deadline arrives, so it is worth calling early.
Do I have a case if the accident was partly my fault?
Quite possibly. Texas allows you to recover compensation as long as you are 50 percent or less at fault, though your award is reduced by your share of the responsibility. Insurance adjusters often overstate an injured person’s share of the blame, so their assessment is not the final word.
Will my case go to trial?
Most personal injury cases settle before trial. That said, insurance companies negotiate differently with a lawyer who is willing to try a case. Troy’s litigation background is part of why our clients’ claims get taken seriously.
What kinds of cases does the firm take?
We handle personal injury and wrongful death claims exclusively, with a focus on motor vehicle accidents, including car, truck, and motorcycle collisions, along with catastrophic injury cases. We do not handle criminal defense, family law, or business matters.
Where is your office and what areas do you serve?
Our office is at 14100 San Pedro Avenue, Suite 550, in north San Antonio, just off US-281 near Loop 1604. We serve clients throughout Bexar County and across Central and South Texas. If your injuries make travel difficult, we can come to you.
