WHAT IS PERSONAL INJURY?
Personal injury involves any physical suffering endured due to the irresponsibility of someone else.
While bodily harm is typical, personal injury also includes damage to one’s mental and/or emotional health as well.
At Hernandez, Medina & Baggett, PLLC, we specialize in several types of personal injury cases, such as:
AUTO ACCIDENT
TRUCK ACCIDENT
SLIP AND FALL
MEDICAL MALPRACTICE
PRODUCT LIABILITY
DRAM SHOP
ANIMAL / DOG ATTACK
Personal injury can bring on years of distress on your finances, body, and inner well-being. It can be even more frustrating when the accident that causes your injury wasn’t your fault. In the blink of an eye, simple everyday tasks like driving, working, taking care of yourself, or playing with your kids become huge hurdles — and that can take a toll on your happiness.
In many cases, the party at fault will try to prevent you from calling the police, getting statements from witnesses, or reporting the accident to your insurance company. When this happens, please believe they’re only looking out for themselves. If you were taken advantage of in an accident or another one of the circumstances we specialize in, we can help you get the justice you deserve.
INSURANCE COMPANIES ARE
DRIVEN BY PROFIT
More often than not, insurance companies are primarily concerned with the corporations and big businesses they serve. Their dollars are generated by getting as much money possible. Every settlement they have to cash out hurts their pockets. Don’t be surprised when the very insurance companies that exist to help you in your time of need end up bullying you into a minimal settlement that works to their favor. Depending on them to do what’s right can leave you feeling disappointed and maybe even wondering what was the point of having insurance in the first place.
The last thing you want to do in situations like this is try to handle it all on your own. Insurance companies are vultures that prey on people who don’t have adequate legal representation. It’s in your best interest to hire someone that’s familiar with their fear tactics and strategies and isn’t afraid to call them out. Our law firm is here to make sure you’re compensated fairly and we will see to it that you get the maximum payout possible for your pain and heartache. We’re known for standing up to insurance companies when they don’t want to treat you with the respect you deserve.
ALLOW US TO HELP YOU GET WHAT’S YOURS TODAY.
DON'T LEAVE MONEY ON THE TABLE.
GET THE COMPENSATION YOU DESERVE
Getting injured in an accident caused by a negligent party is unfortunate, especially if you suffered a severe injury. If the at-fault party and their insurance company deny liability, you could end up having to pay for all your medical bills.
If you miss time from work to recover, it can be challenging to support your health expenses and support your family. That is why having an experienced Dallas personal injury lawyer on your side can make sure you get the compensation and justice you deserve.
IS IT WORTH HIRING A
PERSONAL INJURY ATTORNEY?

At Hernandez, Medina & Baggett, PLLC, our Dallas personal injury attorneys have helped many clients recover their entitled compensation inside and outside the courtroom.
We understand how reluctant at-fault parties and their insurers can be when paying the maximum award our clients are entitled to, which is why we are not afraid to take personal injury cases all the way to trial and fight for the most favorable outcome possible.
LIFE CHANGING SOLUTIONS
TEXAS PERSONAL INJURY LAWS
Injuries that are caused by another person’s or entity’s negligence or recklessness may result in a personal injury lawsuit in Texas. Injured parties—or plaintiffs—have two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit.
IN ORDER TO SUCCEED IN A PERSONAL INJURY CLAIM, YOU AND YOUR ATTORNEY
A MUST PROVE THE FOLLOWING ELEMENTS:
The defendant—or at-fault party—owed you a “duty of care” to either obey the laws or protect the safety and well-being of others.
The defendant breached that duty by behaving in a way that a reasonable person in the same situation would not have acted.
The defendant’s breach caused the accident and your injuries.
You suffered losses—or monetary damages—as a result of the accident and your injuries.
THERE ARE TWO MAIN TYPES OF DAMAGES YOU ARE ELIGIBLE FOR:
ECONOMIC AND NON-ECONOMIC DAMAGES.
ECONOMIC DAMAGES
Economic damages represent the financial losses you incurred from the accident, such as hospital and medical bills, lost income, and property damage
NON ECONOMIC DAMAGES
non-economic damages represent the damages that don’t have a clear monetary value, such as pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment in life.
However, if the defendant’s actions were grossly negligent or egregious in nature, you may be subject to punitive damages.
These damages are designed to punish the defendant and ensure this type of conduct doesn’t occur in the future.
