Even More Critical Benefits of Having Our “Pro Bono” Lawyers on Your Side

It is a common assumption by the general public that Texas law will promise them equal financial recovery for their injuries when this is actually false. We all have the right to such financial compensation. But we must secure it for ourselves. We have to ask for it; often forcefully. It’s not automatically given to us just because we show up in court.

Texas Civil Practices and Remedies Codes state only that victims in the case of a negligence-induced accident may seek out compensation, following specific legal guidelines. But the burden of proof is on them, the victim-plaintiffs. To be compensated, they must convince the jury that the defendant’s decisions which led to their actions can be considered the proximate cause, or reason for the injuries that they experienced. Personal injury cases can get extremely contentious. It takes a special kind of attorney to be successful in this type of law. Now a host of less than knowledgeable people are more than willing to give you “free legal advice” (which is often worth what you pay for it). And you might be able to get a rudimentary understanding of personal injury law as it applies to your particular situation by visiting legal Web sites or doing some basic legal research (which many find to be quite boring and tedious). But successfully executing the proper civil action that produces the compensation you and your family need after serious accident injuries is not nearly as easy as it might appear.

You also might have a relative or friend who is a lawyer who wants to protect your best interests and represent you in a personal injury claim or lawsuit. And though we would never tell you what to do, we will say that when it comes to legal representation of any type, you might want to reconsider retaining anyone who might have a difficult time emotionally disassociating him or herself from your case. Personal injury law is quite intense and these kinds of attorneys must be pragmatic, focus solely on the facts of a case and be cool under fire in order to succeed in winning your case. What happens if that friend or relative attorney doesn’t win the case, or accepts a less-than-fair settlement and leaves even more on the table due to inexperience, or thinking more with their heart than their head? How will you feel about your friend or relative then? Very rare is the case where family members or friends belong in your legal business. And they can support you in much better, and safer, ways.
