What You Should Know About Filing a Personal Injury Claim in Houston

Texas law gives most injury victims two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. That deadline can arrive faster than you’d expect once you factor in medical treatment, insurance back-and-forth, and the time it takes to properly investigate a claim. That is why it’s best to speak with an attorney as soon as possible after an accident.

Texas also follows a modified comparative negligence rule, which means that your compensation can be reduced, or even barred entirely, if you’re found partially at fault for the accident that injured you. Insurance companies know this, and they often try to shift blame onto injured victims to reduce or deny a payout. Having an experienced personal injury attorney on your side means having someone who knows how to counter these tactics and build a claim that accurately reflects what happened.

Depending on the details of your case, you may be entitled to recover compensation for:

  • Past and future medical expenses
  • Lost wages and diminished earning capacity
  • Physical pain and suffering
  • Mental anguish
  • Permanent disability or disfigurement
  • Property damage

Our Clients. Their Words.

    I would recommend Chris Soileau any day.
    “I got rear-ended by a big SUV that did not have insurance and to my surprise, Leticia, the case manager, figured out I had personal injury insurance. She took care of me from start to finish. The doctors and chiropractors they recommended took away the injuries caused by the accident. I became a new man with a new strong lower back and I received a nice surprising settlement amount that I wasn’t expecting during the holidays.”
    - Larry R.
    Very professional and quick results.
    “Thanks to attorney Skylar who handled my case. I love this firm.”
    - Past Client
    Mr. Soileau was able to obtain a substantial settlement and negotiate my medical bills
    “Mr. Soileau represented me in a car accident that occurred in November 2014 where I suffered a herniated disc to my neck requiring surgery. After surgery the medical bills were piling up which caused me quite a bit of stress worrying about how all of the medical bills were going to get paid. As my case was complicated and took almost 2 years to work through, Mr. Soileau and his staff were very understanding of my situation throughout the whole ordeal. They took the time to answer my questions, assist with getting the appropriate medical care and kept me in the loop throughout the process. The outcome was much better than I expected. I highly recommend Mr. Soileau and will refer my family and friends if they ever find themselves in need of his services.”
    - J.N.
    Treated me like family. Highly recommend the folks.
    “This place took my case and provided me with guidance from A to Z about what I needed to do and how I was to get the appropriate medical treatment necessary to get better. Very friendly and professional staff.”
    - Cody B.
    They took it to court and fought for me. Would highly recommend!!
    “Awesome Law firm!! Brenda was amazing in helping manage my case and if for some reason she wasn't available, Chris or Dawn was immediately there to help me. I see some complaints on here about not returning phone calls? I never had an issue. Sometimes I would have to leave a message, but they always got back to me with updates. My case took a while but totally worth the wait because they never just took whatever was offered.”
    - Amy G.
    I felt it wasn't about the money he was making but the concern for me and my son's loss.
    “I knew few attorneys a couple years back when I needed one to represent me in a case involving an accident with my wife. I was introduced to Mr. Soileau one evening while I was out playing golf. He sat down and took time out his golf game and listened to my predicament I was facing. Afterward, by the way, he handled everything so professionally I hired him and his firm to represent me, hoping we'd settle without it going to court. Needless to say we settled out of court within a year and I was well satisfied with the settlement. Thanks again to Chris Soileau. I'd recommend them to anyone needing a great down to earth attorney, who has a family and wants to know you personally.”
    - Paul R.
    This law firm has taken care of me from my initial phone call all the way until I received my settlement.
    “I truly would like to thank Brenda for all of her help and remaining professional with me no matter how many times I called which was a lot. My settlement was way more than I ever expected. I am more than satisfied I would like to suggest that Brenda be acknowledged and rewarded for such a great job done. If I ever need to be represented again I will definitely call this law firm with no hesitation.”
    - Amelia P.
    What a great experience!!! I could not speak more highly of Chris Soileau.
    “Right from the beginning, we felt like we had a champion in our corner. His entire staff was great to work with, and Chris never stopped fighting for us. He made the entire process a breeze to work through, and when he took on the responsibility of dealing with the doctor's bill and insurance it freed my wife and I up to concentrate on our healing process. Thanks, Chris Soileau for doing such a fantastic job. The big check at the end was pretty nice too!”
    - Joey J.

    • Real-World Experience
