  • Herniated Discs: A ruptured or slipped disc causing nerve pain.
  • Spinal Fractures: Breaks or fractures in the vertebrae.
  • Muscle Strains & Sprains: Overstretched or torn muscles and ligaments.
  • Sciatica: Radiating pain from a pinched nerve in the lower back.

It was a huge relief to have all the logistics of our insurance claim and medical bills handled while I was recovering from a concussion and other injuries. A representative from the firm visited me in the hospital the same day we called. The Stewart Law Firm negotiated with medical providers and insurance companies on my behalf, saving me tens of thousands of dollars. That was a tremendous help!

Frequently Asked Questions

What compensation can I recover for a back injury in Austin?

If successful, you may receive compensation for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and rehabilitation costs.

Can I still receive compensation if I am partially at fault?

Yes, Texas follows a comparative negligence rule. If you are less than 50% at fault, you can still recover compensation, though it may be reduced by your level of fault.

How long do I have to file a back injury claim in Texas?

The statute of limitations for personal injury claims in Texas is generally two years from the date of the injury.

How can a back injury lawyer help me?

Our experienced personal injury attorneys will handle everything, from gathering evidence to negotiating with insurance companies to representing you in court if necessary.

What if the insurance company offers me a quick settlement?

Be cautious if an insurance company offers you a quick settlement. Often, these offers are lower than what you may be entitled to. Consulting with an experienced attorney can help ensure you receive fair compensation.

How much does it cost to hire a back injury lawyer?

At the Stewart Law Firm, we work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you won’t pay any legal fees unless we win your case. This ensures you can pursue justice without worrying about upfront costs.
