The guidance and patience exhibited by Attorney LaRue and his team were paramount in the successful navigation of this event for my family and I. In a perfect world I won't have to ring his phone anytime soon, but should the Truck of Life dump on me again, I wouldn't hesitate to dial them up.

What Damages Am I Entitled to After a Personal Injury Accident?

When you start working with our personal injury attorneys in Galveston, one of the first steps we can take includes determining how much compensation to seek. We do this by reviewing your losses and calculating their worth.

Losses you could sustain after a personal injury accident in Galveston could include:

  • Medical expenses (e.g., emergency care, surgeries, hospital stays, doctor’s visits, cost of pain medication, etc.)
  • Rehabilitation costs
  • Physical pain and suffering
  • Emotional pain
  • Disfigurement
  • Disability

When the insurance company initially makes an offer, it might only recognize your monetary losses, such as medical bills and lost income. Our attorneys can ensure the insurance company also recognizes your non-economic losses, such as pain and suffering and emotional distress.

A Galveston personal injury lawyer can fight for your economic and non-economic damages and maximize your case’s value. Our team of attorneys will work tirelessly to ensure you seek the maximum amount of compensation you deserve.

Recoverable compensatory damages in a wrongful death action include:

  • Your loved one’s accident-related medical expenses
  • Funeral and burial expenses
  • Lost income your loved one would have earned
  • Loss of companionship, comfort, love

Texas designates certain family members who can pursue financial losses under this action. Our wrongful death attorneys can explain how the legal process works for these lawsuits and answer your questions during a free consultation.
