Personal Injury Lawsuits Our Lawyers Handle in Weatherford, TX
A personal injury lawsuit allows you to recover compensation from a negligent defendant that injured you. Negligent injuries can happen in numerous ways, but our personal injury attorneys have the experience and knowledge to help you recover damages no matter how your injuries occur. Our team will adapt our strategies to the particular circumstances of your case. The following are personal injury claims we commonly fight in Weatherford:
Vehicle Accidents
Vehicle accidents are among the most common claims our attorneys handle. Even minor car accidents can leave you with extensive damages. Besides mounting medical bills, you might need compensation for repairs to your vehicle or a complete replacement. If another driver caused these damages, you deserve to be reimbursed.
Our team can also help if you have been in a motorcycle accident, an Uber or Lyft ride, or injured by a driver while cycling or out walking. Our attorneys know that these cases take a certain skill as they can present more complex issues than your average car accident lawsuit. For instance, if you were injured in an Uber accident, you might have multiple insurance options but not know which are available or if you can sue Uber. Our lawyers understand what to do in these lawsuits to get the compensation you deserve.
Premises Liability
When you go shopping or to a friend’s house, the last thing you expect is to get injured. Unfortunately, not all property owners make their premises safe for their guests. Property owners and managers are responsible for maintaining the safety of the premises, including inspecting for hidden dangers that could cause injuries later. For instance, you might injure yourself slipping at the grocery store because they did not do a routine inspection and failed to find a spill that happened before you arrived.
Our team can help identify anyone who contributed to your accident. In some cases, we might sue the property manager of an apartment complex for failing to clear debris or a restaurant for not cleaning old food off the floor. Our lawyers can discuss who might be responsible for your injuries and how to get justice during your initial interview.
Truck Accidents
Our firm has years of experience helping clients get justice against large trucking companies and their drivers in Weatherford and throughout Texas. With the oil industry and other major businesses operating in and around the area, truck accidents are common. Unfortunately, they can leave you with catastrophic injuries that could take years to recover from. Our lawyers can not only evaluate the extent of your damages, we can determine each entity that played a role in your accident.
In most cases, the truck driver will be named in your lawsuit. However, we can also sue their employer if they caused they accident while they were on the job. Fortunately, this is usually the case. For instance, if a trucker crashed into you while making a delivery, the law of respondeat superior would allow us to file a lawsuit against the company even though they did not directly cause the accident. While trucking companies often have vast legal resources, our lawyers know what it takes to win against them.
Medical Malpractice
If your doctor or another healthcare professional injured you, we can help hold them accountable in a medical malpractice lawsuit. Doctors, nurses, and other specialists are expected to provide the same care that another professional with the same training and experience would give. For instance, all doctors need to give informed consent before giving important treatment or surgeries. Failing to inform the patient of the risks of treatment or an operation would be considered malpractice.
In other cases, your doctor might have misdiagnosed a critical condition or prescribed you the wrong medication. Or a nurse failed to check on you or administer care when required. Our attorneys can untangle the web of liability and arrange expert witnesses to explain your case to the court.
Construction Accidents
Construction zones are hotspots for personal injuries. Workers and pedestrians alike can be injured by the negligence of another person onsite. For example, pedestrians are often injured because construction workers fail to put up safety signs or protective shielding from the site if near a sidewalk. Many other cases involve workers injured by the general contractor’s or coworker’s negligence.
In rarer cases, we might need to sue the manufacturer of a product that injured you while working. These cases are notoriously challenging, since the defect could have been caused during the design phase, manufacturing process, or at the retailers. Our team can help gather the evidence you need to show where the defendants’ negligence occurred, including expert testimony to detail the mechanism and how it injured you.
Nursing Home Abuse
Unfortunately, some of our most vulnerable citizens in Weatherford are abused in their nursing home. Our attorneys take a particular pride in fighting the injustices that occur in some Weatherford nursing homes. If you suspect that your loved one has suffered abuse at the hands of the nursing home staff, other residents, or outside abusers, our team can help.
In some cases, staff or coresidents might be physically abusing you or your family member. In more and more cases, nursing home residents are victims of financial abuse and exploitation. This can come from the staff, who might be outright stealing from them, or from scams designed to take advantage of nursing home residents.
Our firm can make sure that everyone that contributed to the abuse is held accountable in your lawsuit. If a staff member was responsible for the abuse, we will also sue the facility, who should have been monitoring their employees. We can also file a lawsuit against the nursing home if their policies or lack of staff led to the abuse.
