Who is Liable for Your Injuries?
Personal injury law entitles certain accident victims to compensation for their injury-related losses. Compensation is available if another party was negligent in causing the accident and injuries. Negligence is a complex legal standard and proving someone else acted negligently can be a challenging task. You need a legal team on your side with the experience of holding negligent parties fully responsible for their actions. You may have important legal rights after a wide variety of accidents. Our law firm regularly handles claims stemming from the following accidents:- Car accidents
- Commercial truck accidents

Seeking Recovery Through the Legal Process
Accidental injuries can result in extensive losses that add financial and mental stress to your already difficult situation. We help clients seek compensation for the following damages, among others:- Medical expenses
- Estimated future medical expenses for ongoing treatment
- Lost income if you had to miss work

- Permanent injuries, impairments, and disabilities
- Physical pain and suffering
- Mental trauma
- Loss of enjoyment of life

Insurance Claims
Once we know who was responsible and the extent of your losses, we can file an insurance claim with the insurer of the negligent party. This could be an auto insurer, a general liability business insurer, a property insurer, or any other relevant company covering the liable party. Many people are tempted to handle an insurance claim on their own. After all, if the policyholder caused your injuries, the process of receiving an insurance payment should be simple, right? In our experience, insurance companies are not easy to work with and try to take advantage of unrepresented parties. An insurer’s first priority is not a claimant—it is protecting its profits and policyholders. For this reason, the insurance adjuster will use many tactics to try to limit your claim. It is always best to have legal assistance from the very start of the claims process. Our team can help you with the following:- File your insurance claim for the full amount you deserve
- Provide evidence to support your liability claims and losses
- Handle every communication with adjusters
- Review any settlement offers and negotiate higher amounts when needed
- If necessary, we will take the matter to court to obtain a fair and just settlement

Review: 5/5 ★ ★ ★ ★ ★
"As a relatively new resident of Houston, I did not know of an attorney to contact for a personal injury suit. I randomly went through the yellow pages contacting two attorneys that had rejected my case prior to me contacting Stewart Guss. Stewart took my case on and settled for far more than I had anticipated. The silver lining of this is that I will now have enough money to go back to school for retraining, so I will be able to reenter the workforce in a new capacity. The paralegal, Angela, was kind and supportive throughout the process. If I did not understand the legal jargon, I did not hesitate to ask, and was never once made to feel that I was incompetent. Thank you Stewart and Angela for giving me a new lease on live."
