Your first meeting with our attorney is an opportunity to discuss the accident, your injuries, and your goals. During this free consultation, our team will evaluate the strength of your case, explain potential legal strategies, and answer your questions.
Our legal team then begins a thorough investigation. This includes collecting police reports, medical records, witness statements, photos of the scene, and any other documentation relevant to your accident. Evidence is the foundation of every personal injury claim, and a detailed investigation increases your chances of success.
After building your case, your San Antonio attorney will prepare a demand package outlining the facts of your personal injury case and requesting fair compensation for your damages. This demand is sent to the insurance company representing the at-fault party.
If negotiations do not result in a fair offer, your lawyer may file a lawsuit on your behalf. Filing a lawsuit starts a formal legal process in the appropriate Texas civil court. This step sets into motion a series of deadlines and procedural requirements that your attorney will manage for you.
During the discovery phase, both sides exchange information and may take depositions of parties and witnesses. Your legal team will continue preparing your case, developing legal arguments, and addressing any challenges that arise. Pretrial motions or settlement discussions may occur during this time. Many cases settle before reaching trial, but if your case goes to court, your attorney will present your evidence and advocate for maximum compensation. A judge or jury will ultimately determine liability and damages if the case proceeds to trial.
