The following pages provide more information about our other specialties.

• Slip-and-fall accidents: While slip and falls and trip and falls can cause serious injuries, most insurance companies do not take them seriously until a lawyer gets involved.
• Dog bites: Getting bitten or attacked by a dog can lead to expensive medical bills, lost time at work, and permanent physical and emotional scars.
• Medical negligence: When preventable medical errors occur, health care providers need to be held accountable like any other person or entity.
• Burns: Burn injuries cause extreme pain, trauma, and a lifetime of physical disfigurement.
• Brain injury: Over 50,000 people die from traumatic brain injury every year in the United States, many in accidents.
• Hazing: Texas, like most other states, has outlawed hazing by legislation and has defined the term to include conduct deemed detrimental to a person’s safety, physical health or mental health.
• Nursing home neglect: While most nursing homes are well-maintained and administered, too many are understaffed, unsupervised, or have ill-trained or incompetent personnel.
• Business Litigation: If your business gets into a dispute that requires litigation or arbitration, you want an attorney who has actually tried and arbitrated cases — not simply a “litigation” lawyer who has never picked a jury or cross-examined a witness when it counts — in front of a judge and jury. Your business is too important to take chances with inexperience.
