Recovering from a catastrophic accident can feel like standing at the bottom of a mountain with no clear path upward. The injuries, pain, and uncertainty can make even the smallest steps forward seem impossible. At Kherkher Garcia LLP, our mission as your personal injury lawyer in Houston is to shoulder that burden and guide you toward recovery, stability, and justice. We recognize that financial compensation is not the sole objective. Proper recovery means regaining your confidence, rebuilding your life, and knowing that those responsible are held accountable for their actions.
When you hire our firm, you gain a partner who takes the time to understand every detail of your case. As your catastrophic injury lawyer in Houston, we begin with an in-depth consultation to understand how the accident occurred and how it has impacted your daily life. We then move into the investigation stage, where we collaborate with accident reconstructionists, medical specialists, and engineers to uncover the facts and establish fault. We collect evidence, secure witness statements, and document every medical expense so that your case is supported by undeniable proof.
Our comprehensive approach includes:
Catastrophic injuries, including spinal cord injuries, amputations, traumatic brain injuries, and burns, often require lifelong care and costly treatment. These injuries can impact every aspect of your life, from mobility and career to family dynamics. That’s why our attorneys focus on both future costs and current losses. We prepare life care plans that project medical needs over decades and economic models that consider inflation and lost career growth. When opposing counsel or insurers see that we have built a comprehensive, evidence-driven case, they recognize that a fair settlement is the only reasonable outcome.
At Kherkher Garcia LLP, we treat every client as part of our extended family. We stand beside you in the courtroom, at the negotiation table, and throughout recovery. Our goal is straightforward: to restore your security and ensure your future remains strong, regardless of the challenges ahead.
After a serious accident, it’s natural to feel confused about what to do next or whether you have legal options. In Texas, victims of negligence are protected under civil law, which allows them to pursue compensation for the harm they have suffered. Personal injury law covers both physical and emotional damage caused by another’s carelessness or intentional misconduct. Whether the incident occurred on a Houston highway, at a construction site, or in a public place, your right to seek justice remains the same.
It’s essential to recognize that these rights encompass more than just financial compensation. You also have the right to medical treatment, protection from retaliation at work if your injury occurred on the job, and representation throughout the legal process. Acting quickly after an accident is crucial because evidence, such as security footage, skid marks, or defective products, can disappear. The sooner an attorney becomes involved, the stronger your case will be.
At Kherkher Garcia, our firm ensures that your rights are protected from the moment you contact us. We handle all communication with insurers, investigate the cause of the accident, and ensure that your case is well-positioned for success. We also educate our clients on the process so that they understand what to expect at each stage. Knowledge is power, and we believe that an informed client is a protected client.
We are relentless in our effort to seek justice for our clients.

At Kherkher Garcia, we understand that after an accident or injury, you may have many questions about your rights, the legal process, and how our team can help. To provide clarity and peace of mind, we’ve compiled this FAQ section, where we answer the most common questions from our clients. If you need more information or would like to speak directly with our legal team, we are available to assist you at any time.
Yes. Here at Kherkher Garcia, LLP, we have several lawyer/paralegal teams who speak Spanish.
You may have a case if another person’s reckless, careless, or intentional actions caused your injuries. Negligence can take many forms, including distracted driving, unsafe premises, faulty machinery, or a company’s failure to follow safety regulations. Sometimes negligence isn’t immediately apparent; it may require analyzing maintenance logs, safety inspection records, or digital evidence, such as surveillance footage and vehicle data. Our attorneys meticulously examine these details to uncover every layer of responsibility.
We also evaluate how your injuries have affected both your daily life and long-term plans. For example, a back injury may limit your ability to work or care for family members, while emotional trauma can lead to anxiety or depression that affects relationships. During our consultation, we not only review the legal merits of your case but also help you understand the broader impact of the injury. We explain your rights, potential case value, and what evidence can strengthen your claim. Our goal is to empower you with knowledge, enabling you to make informed decisions about your recovery and future.
Adrenaline can temporarily reduce pain. You may feel pain or develop other symptoms later. It is a good idea to consult a doctor right away, even if you do not yet feel extreme pain.
Call our office or email us at ContactUs@kherkhergarcia.com with any questions about your case or on any other matter. We are committed to returning all calls and emails within 24 hours.
Your team will keep you informed about important events in your case, and of course, you can always call with questions. We understand that litigation can be stressful for our clients, but litigation is what we do, every day. To decrease stress on our clients, we work through routine matters, moving your case forward, without communicating every detail. That way, you are not overwhelmed or made anxious being reminded of your case when all is proceeding as expected.
You should not speak with anyone about your case, other than your attorney or staff. If someone whom you do not know calls asking to talk about your case, tell them you cannot talk now, but will call them back. Ask for a phone number, then call your attorney or staff. The person who calls you may seem friendly and sympathetic, but they are almost certainly trying to get you to say something that would hurt your case.
The law gives you a limited window of time to take legal action. Under the Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code Section 16.003, most personal injury lawsuits must be filed within two years from the date of the injury. This rule applies to most cases, including vehicle collisions and workplace accidents. However, certain exceptions exist for minors and those who could not reasonably have discovered the harm immediately. Acting within this timeframe ensures that your case remains valid and gives your attorney the best opportunity to preserve evidence.
After an accident, the steps you take can significantly influence your recovery and your legal outcome:
-Seek medical help immediately, even if symptoms appear mild.
-Report the accident to local authorities. The Texas Transportation Code Section 550 mandates reporting accidents involving injury, death, or major damage.
-If you are able, take photos, gather witness contact information, and save all medical documents.
-Avoid giving recorded statements to insurance representatives.
-Contact a personal injury lawyer in Houston to ensure your rights are protected.
Following these steps builds a stronger foundation for your case and prevents costly mistakes later.
The value of your claim depends on the unique facts of your situation, including your injuries, medical costs, and recovery outlook. Compensation can include:
-Economic damages: Hospital bills, rehabilitation, lost income, and ongoing care expenses.
-Non-economic damages: Pain, suffering, mental anguish, and reduced quality of life.
-Punitive damages: Extra compensation for cases involving egregious conduct, as outlined in Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code Chapter 41.
Our attorneys work with financial experts to build a clear picture of how your injury affects your future. We account for everything, from physical therapy and home modifications to loss of retirement contributions. Our goal is to ensure that the compensation reflects your true losses.
While many cases settle before reaching trial, we prepare every case as if it will be decided by a jury. This approach gives our firm leverage when negotiating and ensures we are ready for any challenge. Insurance companies often take us seriously because they know we will not hesitate to argue your case in court if necessary. Some of our most significant results have come when we refused to accept low offers and proved our clients’ cases before a jury.
Taking a case to court can seem intimidating for many clients, but our team walks you through every step of the process. We explain what to expect during depositions, discovery, and testimony, ensuring you feel confident and informed. Preparation often includes gathering expert witnesses, creating demonstrative evidence, and practicing testimony to provide clarity and credibility in front of a jury. Our trial lawyers are experienced communicators who know how to explain complex issues in relatable, persuasive terms.
We also recognize that litigation involves strategy and timing. Sometimes, simply demonstrating that we are prepared to go to trial compels defendants to offer fair settlements. In other cases, it becomes necessary to let a jury determine justice. Whether negotiating in mediation or presenting your case in court, Kherkher Garcia LLP ensures your story is heard and your rights are fully protected.
You don’t need to worry about paying legal fees upfront. Our firm operates under a contingency fee structure, which means our clients never pay out-of-pocket costs while their case is in progress. You owe us nothing unless we successfully secure compensation on your behalf. This arrangement removes financial barriers, allowing injured individuals to pursue justice without fear of unexpected expenses or monthly bills. We also advance the costs necessary to build a strong case, including expert evaluations, depositions, and investigations, so you can focus solely on your recovery.
This model ensures that everyone, regardless of income, background, or circumstance, has access to high-quality legal advocacy. Our attorneys are motivated to achieve the best possible results because our success is directly tied to yours. At Kherkher Garcia LLP, transparency is a core value. We clearly explain our fee agreement at the start and provide regular updates so there are no surprises later. Our commitment is to make justice accessible for every client, and we never charge hidden fees or unnecessary costs.
The duration of a personal injury case varies based on the facts. Cases with clear liability and limited injuries can typically be resolved within a few months. Those involving severe injuries, disputed responsibility, or complex medical conditions may take longer.
Our attorneys keep clients informed through each step, ensuring transparency. We also push for efficiency by maintaining steady pressure on insurers and defense attorneys to avoid unnecessary delays.
Texas applies a modified comparative fault rule to injury claims. You can recover compensation as long as you are not more than 50% at fault. Suppose the insurer attempts to unfairly shift blame.
In that case, our firm investigates thoroughly, uses experts to reconstruct the event, and presents a clear timeline proving how the other party’s negligence caused your injuries. We work tirelessly to minimize your liability percentage and protect your right to recovery.
A wrongful death claim allows families to pursue justice for the loss of a loved one caused by another’s negligence. Damages can include funeral expenses, loss of income, and compensation for emotional grief. Our attorneys handle these cases with the compassion they require, ensuring your family’s rights are upheld with dignity and respect.
Getting started is simple. Reach out to Kherkher Garcia LLP, and our personal injury lawyer in Houston will review your case details, explain your rights, and provide a roadmap for moving forward. Our team is dedicated to helping injured Texans rebuild their lives with confidence and security.
