FAQ

Personal injury basics, answered

The questions people ask before they ever pick up the phone.

  • How much does a personal injury lawyer cost?

    No attorney's fee unless he recovers money for you. Court costs and case expenses are separate from attorney's fees, and you remain responsible for them even if there is no recovery. The initial consultation is free. Review the written fee agreement before hiring.

  • What should I do right after an accident?

    After a crash, attend to safety and medical needs first. Exchange driver, contact and insurance details. Preserve photographs and witness contact information if it is safe. Notify your own insurer promptly and meet your policy's reporting and cooperation requirements. Ask a lawyer about a requested recorded statement or settlement release without missing those obligations. Keep copies of medical bills and insurer communications. The Texas Department of Insurance guide explains auto claims and settlements.

  • What if I was partially at fault?

    Partial fault does not automatically end a claim, but it does not guarantee payment. In claims governed by Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code Chapter 33, responsibility greater than 50% bars recovery. If responsibility is 50% or less, you still must establish your claim; recoverable damages are reduced by your share. Other rules and defenses can also affect recovery.

  • Will I have to go to court?

    It depends on how your claim develops. A case may resolve through a settlement or require a lawsuit and possibly a trial. Filing a lawsuit does not necessarily mean a trial will happen. If a case is filed, ask Kent which deadlines, meetings or court appearances require your participation. Do not ignore a court notice or order.
