When choosing from the local attorneys in our directory, look for a lawyer who focuses on personal injury rather than a general practice. Ask about a real trial track record, not just settlements, and whether the lawyer knows the local courts and the insurers that handle claims in your area. Get the contingency terms in writing, including the percentage and who pays case costs. Confirm who personally handles your case day to day. Finally, check the attorney's standing with the State Bar before you commit.
What to do after an accident in Colleyville
After an accident in Colleyville, get medical care first, even if you feel fine, since some injuries show up later. Document the scene and your injuries with photos and notes, and exchange and gather information from everyone involved. Avoid admitting fault or giving a recorded statement to an insurer. Keep all records, including bills, reports, and correspondence. Texas has a filing deadline of 2 years from the date of injury, so acting promptly matters. A local attorney can review your situation and explain your options before time runs short.
