—N.H.

Reaching out to the Tijerina Legal Group was one of the best decisions that week

Having your minor child be involved in a vehicle collision is one of the scariest moments as a parent. I’ll never forget his phone call that morning and the fear in his voice. As a parent, we strive to ensure our kids bounce back from whatever hurdles they tackle and I knew I couldn’t do this alone. Reaching out to the Tijerina Legal Group was one of the best decisions that week. My son was in pain and I knew I couldn’t handle dealing with insurance claims all on my own. From the first meeting and beyond, the staff was clear, concise and so helpful. Navigating the legal system alone would have surely overwhelmed me but I had the amazing Tijerina group standing strong on my behalf as I worked to help my son recover after his accident. I’m so thankful for the help and guidance and couldn’t be happier for my kiddo and the resolution he saw once our case was successfully closed.

“The speed of the way our case moved was great!”

Personal Injury Attorney San Juan, TX Your Questions Answered

FAQ media

How long do I have to file a personal injury lawsuit in Texas?

Most personal injury claims in Texas must be filed within two years of the accident date. Taking action early helps preserve evidence, supports your claim, and allows your legal team sufficient time to build a strong and complete case.

How long does a personal injury case take?

The duration of a personal injury case depends on its specific circumstances. Some cases resolve faster than others. Factors such as treatment, evidence collection, and negotiations all contribute to the overall timeline of the case.

Do I need to pay for an attorney after an accident?

There are no upfront costs required to hire our firm. We operate on a contingency fee basis, meaning payment comes from the compensation recovered. If no recovery is made, you are not responsible for attorney fees.

What if I was partially at fault for the accident in Texas?

You may still recover compensation under Texas law if your fault is less than 51 percent. Any award may be reduced based on your share of responsibility and the circumstances surrounding the accident.

If I don’t have insurance, can I still get money from an accident that wasn’t my fault?

Lack of insurance does not prevent you from seeking compensation. The responsible party’s coverage may apply, and other recovery options may exist. Reviewing your situation helps identify the best available path forward.
