We advise our clients about car accident injury claims ranging from serious soft tissue trauma such as whiplash or knee damage to permanent, disabling or fatal injuries. Although both Bart Bernard and Sandee Hart are members of the Million Dollar Advocates Forum for their past success with seven-figure accident cases, our law firm also helps clients with apparently minor injuries.
Our experience tells us that what seem like minor injuries might be a lot worse than you think. Especially in cases of sprains and strains, it's hard to predict how completely an injured person might recover. Your fender bender might end up keeping you away from work for a long time, and it's our job to make sure that you receive the medical treatment and financial compensation you need to support the most complete recovery possible.
We work with people locally and from out of state who need legal advice about their rights in such situations as the following:
- Car wrecks caused by negligent drivers
- Claims for uninsured or underinsured motorist benefits under your own auto coverage when the other driver's limits are too low to cover your losses
- Injury claims of drivers or passengers from other states who are hurt in Texas or Louisiana car accidents
- Accidents caused by dogs, cattle or horses in city streets or rural highways
- Damages claims against drunk drivers, whether or not they were convicted of criminal charges
- Injury claims of truck drivers, delivery drivers or others involved in accidents while working
- Serious or fatal accidents involving pedestrians or bicyclists
We normally accept car accident claims on a contingent fee basis. In other words, we collect no attorney's fee unless we're successful in collecting damages on your behalf. Our firm also advances the costs and expenses involved in proving your liability and damages claims.
