Motor Vehicle Accidents
In the blink of an eye, a motor vehicle crash can turn your life upside down. Between vehicle repair costs, medical bills, lost income, and out-of-pocket expenses, you may be facing a considerable financial burden. If you were injured in a wreck caused by drunk driving, texting and driving, speeding, or another form of negligent driving, we can help you hold the negligent driver accountable and seek financial restitution on your behalf. Let us fight to get you the justice you deserve and the monetary compensation you need after an auto accident.

Car Crashes
Car crashes can cause injuries that dramatically impact nearly every aspect of the car accident victim's life. Some crashes are the fault of another driver. Other times, the culprit is a defective car part or poorly designed intersection. Whatever the cause of your accident, our team can help you determine who is liable for your damages and pursue compensation. You could be compensated for your vehicle repair or replacement expenses, hospital bills, and the other financial losses caused by your accident. You could also recover compensation for your pain and suffering.

Truck and Semi Crashes
Large commercial trucks often cause catastrophic accidents resulting in severe injuries and property damage. Attorney James Kennedy and his team can help you hold the trucking company and other liable parties accountable and seek financial restitution on your behalf. Whether your truck accident was caused by a sleepy truck driver, tire blowout, dropped truck cargo, or another reason, we can help. Our team will launch a full investigation into your accident and gather the evidence needed to build the strongest claim possible.

Tire Defects
Tires are among the most critical pieces of equipment on any vehicle, including passenger vehicles, commercial trucks, and buses. When tires fail because of defects in the design or manufacturing process, even the most sophisticated safety systems may not be able to prevent serious injuries. At our firm, we handle a wide range of tire defect accident cases, including those involving blowouts, tread separation, improper installation, and inadequate tire maintenance. If you have been injured as a result of defective tires, we are prepared to help you seek compensation.

Rollover Accidents
Crashes in which a vehicle overturns completely can cause devastating injuries and, in many cases, death. At our firm, we recognize that rollover accidents can be caused by a variety of factors, including debris on the roadway, tire defects, and defects in the design of the vehicle. Regardless of how your rollover accident occurred, we will work hard to identify the party or parties that should be held liable. From there, we will do everything we can to get you full compensation for the injuries that you sustained. Let us put our experience to work for you and your family.

Serious injuries often result in more complex cases and higher payouts. It is essential that you work with an attorney who understands the gravity of what you are going through and how to bring a robust claim on your behalf. At our firm, we have the legal experience and knowledge needed to successfully handle complex cases involving serious injuries like brain injuries, spine injuries, and burns.

Premises Liability
Visitors to private property or customers who enter a public place such as a retail store, shopping mall, restaurant, or bar may be injured because of the negligence of the property owner or the tenant who was in control of the property. These injuries may occur because of hazards or other dangerous conditions that affected people's safety, such as wet floors, tripping hazards, negligent security, missing or broken railings, or collapsing balconies. If a property owner or tenant did not take reasonable actions to repair or address these hazards, they may be held liable for injuries suffered by visitors.
Work Injury
In many cases, those who are injured while working will qualify for workers' compensation. However, employers in Texas are not required to maintain workers' compensation insurance, and this may leave injured workers unsure about how to address the costs related to work injuries. Injured employees may be able to pursue civil lawsuits against employers who do not subscribe to workers' comp, and these lawsuits may be based on claims that injuries were caused by an employer's negligence. For instance, an employer may not have required employees to follow the proper safety regulations, or they may not have provided workers with the necessary safety equipment or training on how to minimize workplace hazards and avoid work-related injuries.


Construction Sites
There are multiple types of hazards that affect construction workers, especially for those who work around large construction equipment or who are at risk of falling from high places. Workers may suffer fall injuries due to collapsing ladders or scaffolds or defective safety harnesses. Falling objects or defective tools and equipment may cause serious injuries, or electrocution injuries may occur because of defective wiring or live wires cut during excavation. Other common causes of construction site injuries include collapsing trenches and exposure to toxic chemicals.


Refinery, Oil, and Gas Accidents
Workers in the oil and gas fields of west Texas and southeast New Mexico face many risks. Natural gas and oil are highly combustible, and fires may occur that can lead to severe burn injuries or explosions that cause serious bodily harm. Workers may also be exposed to toxic substances, resulting in chemical burns or injuries to a person's respiratory system. A breakdown of the complex machinery in a refinery may result in multiple types of serious injuries, including electrocutions, brain injuries, spine injuries, or damage to the limbs resulting in amputation.
