When someone else causes your injuries, you may have grounds for a personal injury claim. In Houston, a serious injury may result from a highway collision, a dangerous property condition, a workplace accident, a defective product, or another person’s negligence. Getting injured can disrupt your health, your work, and the routines your family depends on. Reach out to Anderson, Cummings & Drawhorn for legal guidance. Our personal injury attorneys in Houston can review the cause of your injury, determine who may be responsible, and pursue compensation for your injuries and losses.
A personal injury claim may require answers to several questions. Who caused the incident? Did another person or business contribute to it? Who owned or controlled the property or equipment involved? Which insurance policies may apply? How has the injury affected the person’s ability to work and live normally? These questions become more complicated when a claim involves a commercial vehicle, business property, a construction site, an industrial operation, or multiple companies.
Our Houston personal injury attorneys routinely handle claims stemming from:
The person who directly caused an injury isn’t always the only party that should be considered. A truck crash, for example, may raise questions about the driver, the trucking company, the vehicle owner, or the maintenance provider. A property injury could involve the owner, property manager, contractor, or another company responsible for maintaining the premises. A construction accident may involve multiple contractors or subcontractors. Examining these relationships can help determine which parties may be legally responsible and which insurance coverage may apply.
Insurance issues can become complicated when several people or businesses are connected to an accident. A commercial truck crash may involve commercial auto coverage. A premises claim may involve coverage maintained by a property owner or business. A qualifying vehicle accident may also involve uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage. Insurance coverage doesn’t determine legal responsibility. The claim still requires an evaluation of who caused the injury and what evidence supports that conclusion.
The legal work can vary with the type of injury. After a car or truck crash, our legal team can review collision records, determine potentially responsible parties, and assess available insurance coverage. For a slip and fall injury, our personal injury attorneys can examine the dangerous condition, determine who owned or controlled the property, and seek records relevant to the incident.
For a workplace or industrial accident, the legal review may include contractors, equipment providers, or other third parties that may be responsible. In a defective product case, the focus may include the product, manufacturer, distributor, warnings, and the circumstances surrounding the injury. For a catastrophic injury or wrongful death claim, our personal injury attorneys in Houston can gather medical, employment, and other records needed to document the full consequences of the incident.
In general, Texas gives injured people two years to bring a personal injury claim under Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code § 16.003(a). However, exceptions can apply. Our lawyers can assess the applicable deadline while working to preserve relevant information.

If you want a lawyer who actually delivers and gets you the compensation you deserve, look no further. Highly recommended!"
"I had such an amazing experience with this law firm! Adam Drawhorn took the time to explain all the options available to me and made sure that I understood each step of the process.

"My wife and I were in a serious accident and she sustained serious injuries. John was recommended by a co-worker. I have never had to deal with injuries due to a car wreck and the negligence of someone else so I was in unfamiliar territory. John was very understanding and patient and took the time to meet with us anytime we had questions and Mrs. Alvarez was on top of everything and very professional. I hope and pray we never have to go through this again but if we do John will be my first call."
