Common Personal Injury Questions
01. Do I Have a Personal Injury Lawsuit?
You likely have a personal injury lawsuit if you’ve been injured due to someone else’s negligence. To determine whether you have a case, we look at factors such as the extent of your injury, the responsibility of the other party, and any physical, emotional, or financial losses you have sustained. Our attorneys can provide a personalized evaluation of your situation to determine your legal options.
02. What Are the Damages for Personal Injury in Texas?
In Texas, personal injury damages fall into three main categories:
- Economic Damages: These include medical bills, lost wages, loss of earning capacity, property damage, and other quantifiable financial losses.
- Non-Economic Damages: These cover pain and suffering, mental anguish, disfigurement, and loss of enjoyment of life.
- Punitive Damages: In cases of gross negligence, the court may award additional damages beyond your actual injuries to punish the at-fault party and deter similar behavior from others in the future.
03. What Does Litigation Mean in a Personal Injury Lawsuit?
Litigation refers to the legal process after filing a lawsuit. It involves gathering evidence, engaging in the discovery process, presenting arguments, and potentially going to trial. While many cases settle before litigation, our firm is prepared to advocate for you in court if necessary.
04. What’s a Texas Personal Injury Attorney?
A Texas personal injury trial attorney is a legal professional that represents clients injured in South Texas and beyond. These attorneys handle cases involving car crashes, workplace injuries, and more. A trial attorney is an attorney that actually goes to trial and knows how to present a case to a jury. Any attorney can claim to be a personal injury attorney, but few can claim to be a trial attorney. At Perkins and Perkins, we have the experience, skill, and reputation, to call ourselves trial attorneys. This claim is demonstrated by our record breaking jury verdicts.
05. What Kind of Cases Do Your Texas Injury Attorneys Handle?
Our personal injury attorneys handle a wide variety of cases, including:
- Wrongful death cases
- Car crashes
- 18-wheeler accidents
- Company vehicle crashes
- Motorcycle accidents
- Workplace injuries
- Oilfield injuries
- Industrial accidents
- Premises liability claims
- Defective products
- Maritime injuries
- Rideshare and delivery accidents
06. What If I Can’t Afford a Personal Injury Lawyer?
At Perkins and Perkins, we work on a contingency fee basis, which means you don’t pay any upfront fees. Instead, our fee is contingent upon the successful resolution of your case. We will cover your medical costs, transportation costs, and litigation costs, so you can focus on getting better. Let us focus on the legal matters. If we win your case, our fee is a percentage of the compensation you receive. If we don’t win, you don’t pay. This ensures that everyone has access to experienced legal representation regardless of their background or financial situation.

We will cover your medical costs, transportation costs, and litigation costs, so you can focus on getting better. Let us focus on the legal matters.

08. Why Hire a Personal Injury Lawyer Who Tries Cases?
Hiring a lawyer experienced in trial work is essential because not all cases settle. Insurance companies know which attorneys are willing to take a case to trial and those who are not. If they know you are willing to fight them in trial they are more likely to negotiate fairly with you. At Perkins and Perkins Trial Attorneys, we have the courtroom experience to handle your case effectively, whether it settles or goes to trial. Our record breaking jury verdicts speak for themselves.
09. How quickly will I get money from my personal injury?
The amount of time it takes to receive compensation from a personal injury case varies widely depending on the circumstances. Various factors include whether liability is clear, the severity of injuries, how many parties are involved, and whether a fair settlement can be reached without litigation. Therefore, some cases are resolved within a few months or even weeks through negotiation, while others that go to trial may take a year or more. At Perkins and Perkins, we understand how important it is to receive your compensation promptly. While we strive to resolve cases as quickly as possible, we don’t rush the process and leave money on the table. However, we will communicate with you regularly and keep you updated every step of the way so you can make informed decisions about how you want your case to progress.

Posted on Cristina HernandezTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can’t say enough good things about Perkins & Perkins Law Firm. From the very beginning, they treated me like more than just a client — they treated me like family. They truly went above and beyond to support me and help take care of my family during a time when we needed it most. At the end of the day, you can read a million reviews on Google, but this one comes straight from the heart. Perkins & Perkins didn’t just handle my case — they showed genuine care and compassion. There were moments when I needed extra gas money just to make it to important doctor’s appointments, or even something as simple as a box of pizza on a Friday night to get my family through the evening. Every single time, they came through. That level of kindness, humanity, and dedication is something you don’t forget. Perkins & Perkins didn’t have to do those things — they chose to. I will always be grateful for everything they’ve done for me and my family. If you’re looking for a law firm that truly cares, this is it. It truly means a lot to me and my family.
