When a Spinal Cord Injury Turns Your Life Upside Down

A spinal injury is not a typical injury. It can mean partial or complete paralysis, permanent loss of sensation, loss of earning ability, and lifetime medical care. Victims across McAllen — from the neighborhoods near Nolana Avenue to the communities surrounding US-83 and McColl Road — face medical bills that pile up fast, while insurance companies work just as fast to minimize what they pay.

That is where the Almaraz Law Firm steps in. Our spinal cord injury attorney in McAllen, TX takes on insurance companies and negligent parties directly, so you can focus on recovery rather than litigation. We handle the legal battle while you focus on your life.

What Our Spinal Cord Injury Attorney Does for You

As your spinal cord injury personal injury attorney, our team:

• Investigates the cause of the injury — whether it was a car accident on US-83, a workplace accident, a slip and fall, a construction site incident, or a defective product
• Calculates the full value of your claim, including current and future medical costs, lost wages, lost earning capacity, pain and suffering, mental anguish, and loss of companionship
• Builds a complete case file using accident reconstruction, medical records, and credible witness testimony
• Negotiates aggressively with insurers — and takes the case to trial when necessary
• Fights for paralysis injury compensation regardless of the complexity or severity of your case

Spinal cord injury cases tried in Hidalgo County courts — including the 398th District Court in Edinburg — require skilled, prepared legal representation. The Almaraz Law Firm knows this court system well. Attorney Rosendo Almaraz, Jr. began his legal career as an Assistant District Attorney right here in Hidalgo County before dedicating his practice exclusively to fighting for injured Texans.

Spinal cord injury settlements in Texas vary widely based on severity, liability, and long-term care needs. Complete paralysis cases regularly result in multi-million dollar recoveries when handled by a qualified spinal injury attorney.

How long do I have to file a spinal cord injury lawsuit in Texas?

Texas law generally allows two years from the date of injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. Missing this deadline can bar your claim entirely, so contacting a spinal cord injury lawyer near you as soon as possible is critical.
