When you or someone you know has been injured due to
the negligence of another person, you need someone
on your side. You may have lost your ability to earn
a living at the very moment that you are amassing
substantial medical bills and other overwhelming
expenses such as rehabilitation costs. You may even
have a permanent disability that will limit your
ability to work --- all because of someone else's
careless or reckless behavior.

of physical and financial crisis, you need a legal
team dedicated to protecting your rights. The San
Antonio personal injury law firm of

management to give our clients comprehensive legal

What
exactly are we talking about when we discuss
personal injury? You may have been hurt in a
car accident, a
motorcycle crash or a
truck accident. Perhaps you were injured in a
slip and fall at a business or residence. Whatever
the cause, when you've been
seriously harmed by the negligence, recklessness
or malicious intent of another, you may have the
basis for a personal injury lawsuit.
Under
Texas law, you can file a claim for financial
compensation. You may be entitled to a range of
damages for your lost wages, medical bills, and any
pain and suffering. But you must clear significant
legal hurdles before recovering those damages. Keep
in mind that Texas law is specific about how quickly
these cases must be filed -- generally within two
years of the accident. The law is also clear about
what evidence must be presented to prove your claim
-- and if you don't act quickly, the evidence you
need may be lost forever.
Texas law allows
the person who harmed you to allege that you are
partly or completely at fault in the accident. The
at-fault party may take that step to erase their
legal responsibility for your injuries. Even if you
win your case, the law may limit the amount of
non-economic damages, such as pain and suffering,
that you can receive in a personal injury or
wrongful death lawsuit.
As you can see, the
path to recovery in a personal injury case is long
and difficult. That's why you need the skilled
personal injury lawyers of Heard & Smith at your
side. Our

accurate evaluation of your case, and we will design
a legal strategy with your best interests in mind.
