Victims of car accidents are entitled to compensation for property damage, medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and for permanent injury or disfigurement. Please be aware that adjusters and insurers always try to take advantage of victims who are not represented by an attorney experienced in Texas accident law.  You may have seen their expensive television commercials explaining that your always taken care of and in good hands.  Know that insurance companies make their money by selling policies and paying the absolute minimum on potential claims.  That means that when your injured, it’s time for them to make money by paying you the least that they can get away with. Comprehensive Legal Representation for Auto Accident Victims While car accidents make up a significant portion of Texas personal injury and wrongful death claims, they cannot be considered routine. Each accident must be investigated individually to establish case specifics. Our experience in Texas auto accident litigation is extensive. Car accident lawyer Rick Plezia is adept at assessing the physical principles of the accident, the medical evidence used to evaluate injuries, and the economic and accounting principles required to evaluate losses. We provide the strongest possible representation. We Protect Your Best Interests Do not count on the insurance company to look out for your best interests. It's rare that an accident victim will "come out ahead" in an injury settlement without consulting a lawyer. If we handle your case, there will be no advance fees or other advance payments required. If you recover nothing, you owe us nothing. Attorney Rick Plezia has extensive experience in litigating car accident cases. We invite you to call us today at 888.469.8952 for a free consultation if you or a loved one has been injured in an accident. Medical bills from auto accident cases After a serious auto accident, many people end up with medical bills that they cannot afford to pay. Emergency room visits, extended hospital stays, surgeries, and therapy sessions all place a significant financial strain on injured victims. As we pursue your case, the auto accident lawyers at Plezia, McLemore, Reddell, Ardoin, & Story P.L.L.C will help with coordination of medical benefits offered by your health insurance company, your own auto insurance medical payments coverage, and the liability insurance of the person responsible for your injuries. Our lawyers have a standing history in  helping clients successfully manage their medical bills; we consider it an important component of providing our clients with complete representation following an accident. The timing and selection of which medical bills to submit to which insurance companies can be crucial to the financial outcome of any serious auto accident case. The net result of your settlement may be greatly increased simply by managing these submissions properly. Improper handling of these matters can also have a dramatic effect on a person's credit rating. Medical providers will threaten to turn these bills over to collection, and collection agencies will, after a certain period of time, report delinquent medical bills to the three major credit reporting agencies. There are, however, techniques to defer payment of the medical bills, have them paid by insurance, or, in certain cases, have the medical bills waived or significantly reduced. Our accident lawyers have refined these techniques over 30 years of handling accident cases, and we routinely use them to our clients' advantage. Another common issue that pops up in most auto accident cases (and, for that matter, most personal injury cases of any kind) has to do with a medical lien. Most healthcare providers take the position that they are entitled to a portion of the injured person's recovery in order to reimburse them for the amount that they (the healthcare provider) have paid for medical care. Not all of these claims are valid, and it is important to have an experienced attorney analyze them. In many situations there is no justification for a lien at all, and in other situations it can be significantly reduced. This is a rather complex area of the law, and it requires the attention of a skilled attorney. The attorneys at Plezia, McLemore, Reddell, Ardoin, & Story P.L.L.C deal with medical liens on an everyday basis, and we have the experience necessary to stand up for your rights against large healthcare providers. Seat Belt / Air Bag Injuries and Defects In addition to accident cases, our attorneys have a great deal of experience in litigating cases involving seat belt and air bag malfunctions. It often requires an accident reconstruction expert to determine that an accident might have been caused by a design defect in the car or the tires, rather than by the driver. Our lawyers have demonstrated their technical expertise for many years, offering recoveries from many different accidents that go beyond a police report. Uninsured / Underinsured Motorist Coverage If the driver who hit you has no insurance or is underinsured, you may be able to pursue a claim with your own insurance company. Although the insurance company may have an obligation to pay benefits, the process is often difficult, and claims are frequently underpaid, delayed, or wrongfully denied.
