Personal Injury Practice Areas
Motor Vehicle Accidents
Cars and trucks become dangerous objects when they are operated in an unsafe or negligent manner. Many drivers on the road are distracted or drive recklessly. Some even drive drunk. These neglectful drivers can cause wrecks and crashes injuring innocent motorists. The Martin Law Firm can help hold these negligent drivers responsible for their actions after motor vehicle accidents.
Car Accidents
Car wrecks can cause a great deal of harm, regardless of their size. Passengers and drivers can be hurt whether they are involved in a simple rear-end collision or something more severe such as when a vehicle rolls over.
Truck Accidents
18 wheelers and commercial trucks are a necessary form of commerce. When they aren’t maintained properly or their drivers are careless, motorists can get hurt. Because of the size and weight of these vehicles, they can cause a great deal of harm to a car and its passengers.
Motorcycle Accidents
Motorcycles are often not given a second glance or thought on the highway. We have all seen the “Share the Road” campaigns, yet many drivers do not keep a proper look out for motorcycles on the road. This can cause motorcycle accidents and severe injuries in many instances.
Bus Accidents
Since buses carry a good number of passengers at once and are often not equipped with seat belts, bus accidents have the potential to harm many people. Since so many lives are in a bus driver and operator’s hands, they must take their duty of care seriously.
Workplace & Industrial Accidents
Texas leads the nation in the number of on-the-job fatalities. So many Texans spend their time and lose their lives in the workplace. Plant owners and construction site operators owe a duty of safety to their employees. When that duty to provide a safe workplace is ignored, workers can lose their lives.
Wrongful Death
A serious accident, whether it occurs on the roadway or at a construction site, can claim the life of your loved one. No dollar amount can bring back a lost loved one. However, the surviving family may be entitled to compensation for their losses and to hold the responsible party liable for their negligent actions
Dram Shop
A bar or restaurant provides a recipient with alcohol and it was apparent to the bar or restaurant that the recipient was obviously intoxicated, and The recipient’s intoxication caused a person’s injuries.
Premises Liability
Premises owners and occupiers have a duty to keep their property free of defects. When a guest is injured by a defect on their property, a premises owner may be responsible. If you have been hurt on another business or person’s property, contact The Martin Law Firm for a free consultation.
Medical Malpractice
Patients put their lives in the hands of doctors and health care professionals every day. When doctors and nurses fail to live up to the standard of care and patients are hurt, there may be a medical malpractice case.
Offshore & Maritime Injuries
Working on offshore oil rigs or barges can be a dangerous business. Maritime or Admiralty law is specialized with its origins as old as this country. If you have been injured working offshore or even traveling offshore for work, The Martin Law Firm can help.
Pharmaceutical & Product Liability
Pharmaceuticals and medical devices are not always as safe as they seem. Manufacturers may rush products to market without fully researching the product or its side effects. The public may face the consequences of a drug company’s neglect
Dog bite cases
Negligent dog owners may underestimate the aggression and viciousness from their pet, ignore leash laws, and fail to maintain their fence. All of these acts can lead to painful dog bite injuries and sometimes scarring and disfigurement.
Drunk driving cases
A non-commercial driver has a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of .08 %, or a driver operating a commercial vehicle has a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of .04%, this will be a drunk driving case. Often times drunk drivers will not receive many injuries due to their relaxed state, but could potentially cause severe damage to other motorists on the road.
