Your Advocate in the Courtroom

While many injuries heal in a few weeks or months, catastrophic injuries are life changing for the entire family. Our Texas law firm recovers compensation on behalf of injured clients and their families. We are skilled with the medical and legal concerns involved in serious injury cases, such as:

  • Traumatic brain injury (TBI)
  • Closed head injury
  • Paralysis
  • Amputation
  • Neck injury
  • Back injury

If a family member was involved in a motor vehicle accident, such as a car accident or other serious accident, you need a lawyer who can be a persuasive, effective advocate - especially if the case goes to a jury trial. Former Harris County Attorney Michael P. Fleming has the experience you need on your side. He is board certified by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization in personal injury trial law. He knows what it takes to recover maximum compensation on behalf of injured clients.

  • How did the accident happen? The first step is to assess liability for the accident. Through accident reconstruction, accident reports, and eyewitness reports, an expert can reconstruct what happened and who was at fault. 
  • What is the victim's medical condition? Medical experts can testify about the traumatic brain injury or spinal cord injury. Does the brain injury victim need attendant care or occupational rehabilitation? Does the spinal cord injury victim need special equipment, accessible housing, or ongoing medical care to deal with paraplegia or quadriplegia? 
  • How was the victim's life affected? Can the victim work? How has it changed daily life? Have the accident injuries affected other family members? 
  • What are the financial damages? In addition to medical expenses, was there a loss of current and future income? Will there be future medical expenses?

Whether from a motorcycle accident, car accident, or construction accident, individuals suffering from a traumatic brain injury will have a lifetime of special needs. Our personal injury lawyers advocate for clients in personal injury lawsuits to recover full compensation.
