If you were hurt in a car crash in Harlingen, the insurance company is already working to pay you less. We work so you recover what is fair, in Spanish and with no upfront cost.
If you were hurt in a crash in Harlingen that was not your fault, you can claim compensation for your medical bills, lost income, and pain. Texas follows the 51% rule: you can recover as long as your responsibility is 50% or less.
What you do at the scene can protect your case:
In Texas, you can recover compensation as long as your responsibility in the accident is 50% or less. If they pin 51% or more on you, you recover nothing. That is why the other driver's insurer will fight to raise your percentage of fault.
Also, your compensation is reduced by your percentage: if you are 20% at fault, you receive 80%. Keeping that percentage low, with evidence, is a central part of a good case.
Unlike some states, Texas is an "at-fault" state: whoever causes the accident and their insurer is responsible for the damages. You can claim directly against the at-fault driver, not just against your own insurance.
This opens more options to recover what is fair, but it also means the at-fault insurer will fight hard to pay as little as possible. That is where having someone on your side changes the outcome.
In Texas, you generally have two years from the date of the accident to file an injury claim. It may sound like a lot, but it is not: evidence is lost, witnesses forget, and building a solid case takes time.
If a government entity is involved, the deadlines can be even shorter. That is why it is worth talking to someone soon, even if you are in no rush to sue.
We deal with the insurer so you do not have to, gather the evidence that protects your percentage of fault, and calculate the real value of your case, not the insurer's low offer. We handle everything in Spanish, start to finish.
We charge nothing unless we win. The consultation is free and with no obligation.
