Should I hire an attorney for my accident?

Although you are never required to hire an attorney, it is usually best to do so as soon as possible. From the moment the insurance company is notified of the accident, they are building their case against you. Every statement made to the insurance company will be used to accomplish the insurance company’s goal of paying you as little as possible.

What compensation am I entitled to after an accident?

After an accident or other injury caused by someone else’s negligence, you may be entitled to compensation for your medical bills, lost wages, mental anguish, pain and suffering, and other legally compensable damages. An experienced attorney can properly evaluate your case to pursue everything available to you under Texas law.

Does every personal injury claim go to court?

Not every case goes to court. In many cases, we can negotiate a favorable settlement with the insurance company. However, when the insurance company offers less than your case is worth, we will be fully prepared to take your case to court to fight for the compensation you deserve.

How do I determine who is responsible for my injuries?

When someone is negligent, they may be held responsible for your injuries. Negligence is often difficult to define; however, a drunk driver can be considered negligent. Negligence takes on many forms – for example, a trucking company may be pushing drivers to travel long distances without allowing sufficient time between deliveries. In this case, the company may be considered negligent if you were injured by a truck driver who was speeding to get to his next delivery destination. A personal injury attorney will discuss all the aspects of your accident with you and help determine who is responsible.

Who is the best personal injury attorney in San Antonio?

There are many great injury attorneys in San Antonio. There really isn’t a 'best' attorney, but you may find the best attorney for your particular situation. Make sure you interview several San Antonio injury lawyers and find one that you’re comfortable with and confident in. Look for someone with a strong track record, experience with cases like yours, and a willingness to take your case to trial if needed.

What should I do if I’m contacted by an insurance adjuster?

Insurance adjusters should be referred to your personal injury attorney. This is to protect yourself – remember, the adjuster’s task is to get you to settle your claim for as little as possible. In nearly all cases, the amount of the settlement is likely to be far less than your claim is worth. Be very cautious when answering any questions posed by an insurance adjuster because they will try to prove your injuries are not as serious as you claim, and they may also try to get you to admit partial responsibility for your injuries.

What else should I know about personal injury claims?

In addition to being aware of the statutes of limitations as they pertain to Texas injury claims, you should also be aware of what is called 'shared fault' statutes. Texas uses a modified comparative negligence rule meaning that if you are partially at fault for an accident where you suffer an injury, your final award may be reduced by the percentage of your fault. It is also important to know that if you are found to be more than 50 percent at fault, you will be unable to collect any damages. For example, if your car is broadsided by a truck while you were distracted by a passenger in your car, and you were found 25 percent at fault for your injuries, you would recover $75,000 out of a $100,000 total award. You would not recover the $25,000 caused by your own fault.

How Were You Injured in Midland, TX?

Midland Personal Injury Attorney Eric Ramos

The Ramos Law Office is a serious injury and wrongful death law firm serving Midland and Odessa, Texas. We aggressively advocate for accident victims and their families. Below are just a few of our personal injury practice areas.

Passenger Vehicle Accidents

Although Midland has a relatively small population, a high number of car accidents occur in the city and surrounding areas. According to the Texas Department of Transportation’s Crash Records Information System (CRIS), the Permian Basin region, which includes Midland, consistently experiences a high rate of serious traffic incidents. Crashes occur for a variety of reasons to include driver inattention and poorly maintained roads. If you’ve been in a car crash, don’t play the insurance company’s game. We’ll fight for maximum justice and maximum compensation on your case.

Truck Accidents

Commercial vehicle and 18-wheeler accidents are often life changing and complex. Research from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) shows that occupants in passenger vehicles are at a far greater risk of injury in these collisions. Midland truck accident lawyer Eric Ramos devotes most of his time to these cases and continuing education on trucking accident litigation. If you’ve been hit by a big truck, don’t choose just any law firm. Choose the firm with training, experience, and resources to handle these complex and often-expensive cases. Choose the Law Office of Eric Ramos.

Work-related Injuries

Workplace injuries can often be very complex. Many employers offer workers’ compensation benefits but they rarely benefit the worker. In fact, a national study from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics found that many injured workers either delay reporting injuries or do not file claims at all due to fear of retaliation or misunderstanding the system.

If you’ve been hurt at work and your employer says they have workers’ comp, don’t just take their word for it. You may be entitled to a much greater financial recovery. We represent individuals injured in oil field and refinery explosions, burn injuries, well blowouts, electrocution accidents, crush injuries, and more.

Wrongful Death Claims

No amount of money can make up for the lost of a loved one, but holding the responsible party accountable can help bring closure. Aside from the tremendous emotional toll a loss brings, families still need to be aware of financial considerations when their family member can no longer provide for them. If you’ve lost a loved one, you most certainly have questions. It’s our job to get you answers. It’s our honor to fight for your legal rights and the rights of your beloved family member.

When you’re in need, know that we’re here and willing to support you. It’s our job to get you through these trying times while we aggressively pursue every bit of justice you are entitled to. If you have questions that need to be answered, contact Midland personal injury lawyer Eric Ramos at (432) 639-7870.
