Everyone makes mistakes—but sometimes, those mistakes lead to devastating accidents and catastrophic injuries. Maybe you slipped and fell on a store’s wet floor, were bitten by an unleashed dog, or hit by a car while riding your bike. If someone else is responsible for your injury, you could be entitled to compensation for your losses. However, the path to a fair settlement or jury award isn’t quick and easy. With the right legal representation by your side, you can fight for what’s fair.

To get the compensation you deserve, you’ll need to prove the other party’s liability. This involves showing that they owed you a duty of care, that they were negligent in upholding that duty, and that their negligence caused your injury.
What does negligence mean in this scenario? Negligence is failing to take reasonable steps to prevent injury to another person. Taking it one step further, someone may be negligent if they do something a reasonable person would not do in the same situation or if they fail to do something that a reasonable person would do in that situation.

Choosing the right law firm for your personal injury case can make a huge difference in how much compensation you receive—or even if you receive compensation. It’s crucial to choose an attorney with trial experience. Most personal injury claims settle out of court, so victims often think that it doesn’t matter if their attorney is trial-tested.
This simply isn’t the case. Insurance companies in any given area know the personal injury lawyers of that area and what they’re capable of. They know which attorneys churn and burn through as many cases as possible, accepting low settlements in exchange for a high volume of cases. They know which attorneys have never been to trial and don’t have the confidence needed to take a case to trial. They also know which lawyers have proven themselves in court and have the capacity to cost them much more money in the courtroom.
The team at Hicks Law Firm has secured massive awards for clients, both through negotiations and in the courtroom. If you want a lawyer that will investigate your claim thoroughly, gather the evidence needed to win at the negotiating table or in the courtroom, and fight for every dollar you deserve, Hicks Law Firm is the right choice for you.
