PERSONAL INJURY - DEER PARK, TX

Personal Injury Law Firm

Few things can change your life for the worse more thoroughly than a serious personal injury. The medical care that’s required could result in enormous bills at a time when your wounds prevent you from working and earning an income. Even worse, your future physical well-being could be permanently compromised by a serious injury—which could inflict substantial emotional suffering.

None of these are things that anyone should have to experience, and when you weren’t at fault for causing the accident that harmed you, it can add to the stress and sense of injustice you are probably feeling. Take advantage of the options you have. A Deer Park personal injury lawyer from West & West can help you seek compensation for the hardships you’ve endured.


What Counts as a Deer Park Personal Injury?

Virtually any injury that requires medical care or inflicts some sort of loss or damage could qualify for a personal injury claim in Deer Park. Some restrictions involve accidents that occur at work, but for the most part, as long as someone else was at fault, you can seek a financial settlement.

Here are common types of accidents our injury lawyers handle:

  • Car Accidents – Including collisions involving passenger vehicles, pedestrians, cyclists, buses, and motorcycles.

  • Truck Accidents – 18-wheelers and commercial truck collisions often cause severe or catastrophic injuries, and these cases involve complex regulations.

  • DUI Accidents – If you were hit by a drunk or drug-impaired driver, we can hold them accountable and pursue full compensation.

  • Construction Accidents – If your injury was caused by a third party or due to gross negligence, you may be entitled to more than just workers’ comp.

  • Premises Liability – Property owners are responsible for hazards like dog bites, slip-and-falls, and unsafe conditions.

  • Product Liability – Dangerous or defective products can lead to major injuries. We pursue claims against manufacturers, distributors, and others in the supply chain.

When these or other types of accidents have caused you harm, contact West & West, LLP to speak with an experienced Deer Park injury attorney. Texas only allows two years from the date of the accident to file a claim—don’t wait to get help.


Building a Strong Deer Park Personal Injury Case

The way we investigate your case depends on the type of accident, but our goal is always the same: to gather strong evidence that proves fault and maximizes your compensation.

Key evidence may include:

  • Medical records and diagnosis reports

  • Photos and videos from the scene

  • Witness statements

  • Police or accident reports

  • Expert testimony (e.g., accident reconstruction or medical experts)

  • Surveillance footage or dashcam recordings

While you recover, we’ll get to work immediately building your case.


Serious Injuries and What They’re Worth

The severity of your injury directly impacts how much compensation you can recover. We’ll evaluate your specific injuries, medical needs, long-term impact, and more. Injuries we commonly see include:

  • Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI)

  • Spinal Cord Injuries

  • Severe Burns and Disfigurement

  • Fractures and Crushed Bones

  • Amputations

  • Organ Failure

  • Psychological trauma (PTSD, anxiety, depression)

More serious and life-altering injuries typically result in higher compensation amounts.


Compensation You May Be Entitled To

We’ll help calculate the full value of your losses—economic and non-economic. Your settlement may include:

  • Current and future medical bills

  • Lost wages and reduced earning ability

  • Rehabilitation and therapy

  • Pain and suffering

  • Emotional distress

  • Loss of enjoyment of life

  • Scarring or disfigurement

  • Property damage

  • Punitive damages (in cases of extreme negligence or recklessness)


Dealing with Insurance Companies

Insurance companies are not on your side. They may offer a quick, lowball settlement—or try to blame you for the accident. Don’t fall for it. Texas follows proportionate responsibility laws, so your compensation could be reduced if you’re partially at fault.

Let West & West handle negotiations for you. We’ll protect your rights, maximize your compensation, and—if necessary—fight for you in court.


Contact a Deer Park Personal Injury Lawyer

No matter what kind of accident injured you, if someone else was at fault, you have a right to seek full compensation. Don’t shoulder the burden alone. Let our legal team help you get the justice and recovery you deserve.

I used West & West for my personal injury claim - a slip and fall that involved a trip to the emergency room. Michael West was able to successfully get my medical bills paid and I walked away with money in my pocket. Both Michael and his paralegal were very helpful throughout the whole process.

West and West did an excellent job representing our family's estate settlement during the probate process. They are skilled, up to date, and were patient with us and the beneficiaries and helped us keep everything on track during our extended process. Laura and the others were always amazing with us too.

I enjoyed dealing with a local law firm with strong roots in the community. Probating my Uncle's Will was emotional and personal, but the staff made the process easier than I ever imagined. The process was smooth and easy. The care shown by the staff is knowledgeable and caring.
