How to choose a lawyer in Fresno

Choose a lawyer who focuses on personal injury rather than one who handles it occasionally. Ask about a real trial track record, since insurers weigh whether a firm will take a case to court. Look for knowledge of 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. Ask who personally handles your case day to day. Finally, check the attorney's standing with the State Bar. Use our directory to compare local attorneys on these points before you commit.

What to do after an accident in Fresno

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. Exchange and gather information from everyone involved and any witnesses. Avoid admitting fault or giving a recorded statement to an insurer. Keep records of treatment, bills, and time missed from work. Then act promptly: Texas sets a filing deadline of 2 years from the date of injury, so delays can cost you the right to recover. A local attorney can review your situation and explain the next steps.

Texas injury law, in brief

Texas gives you 2 years from the date of injury to file a personal injury claim. The state uses modified comparative negligence with a 51% bar, so you recover only if your fault is 50% or less. See our Texas page for full details.
