Texas Accident Guide:
What You Should Know Before You Call an Injury Attorney or an Insurance Company
If you have been injured by someone else's negligence, you might not need a lawyer, but you should protect yourself with quality information before you call an attorney or speak to an insurance company. Learn what steps to take, and what mistakes to avoid, in order to protect your claim. And, if you need an attorney, learn how to select the right one for your case. Order our special report (free to Texas residents):
Being a “Personal InjuryVictim” means you have been harmed by someone else, either deliberately or through negligence. The sudden combination of lost wages and medical bills can plunge Personal Injury Victims into debt, and they often make the mistake of accepting legal advice from an insurance company. Sadly, many Victims never receive enough insurance compensation to fully recover from their injuries.
Austin Accident & Personal Injury Lawyer David Todd says: “No Personal Injury case is easy, even with excellent representation. And, every case is different. Not every case requires an attorney. In some situations, the ability of the injured person to recover is limited. The best thing you can do is educate yourself regarding the procedures and challenges involved in pursuing a Personal Injury claim, before you call an attorney and before you speak to an insurance adjuster. Good information leads to better decisions, and well-informed plaintiffs are more successful in resolving their claims.”
Here at the Todd Law Firm, we believe that injury victims should be empowered with the information they need to not only pursue their injury case, but also to recover the maximum monetary remedy allowed under Texas law. Our special report is designed to educate you about pursuing compensation for your injury or condition.

We will listen to you and evaluate your claim before giving you an honest assessment of your legal options.
