WHY GIRARDS LAW

Not all personal injury lawyers handle catastrophic cases.

We do.

  • Board Certified in Personal Injury Trial Law (Texas)
  • James E. Girards has been zealously representing clients since 1989
  • Focused on high-value, complex litigation
  • Experience against hospitals, trucking companies, insurers, and corporations

Many of our cases involve:

  • life-altering injuries
  • permanent disability
  • or wrongful death

These are not routine claims.
They require a different level of preparation and experience.

 

THE TYPES OF CASES WE ACCEPT

We focus exclusively on serious injury and wrongful death cases, including:

  • Wrongful death
  • Medical negligence and hospital error
  • Trucking and commercial vehicle crashes
  • Birth injury and neonatal malpractice
  • Brain injury and spinal cord injury
  • Industrial and catastrophic disasters
  • Aviation incidents

Cases We Typically Do NOT Handle

  • Minor injuries
  • Soft tissue claims
  • Low-impact accidents

This allows us to devote full attention to cases that truly matter.

 

WHAT SHOULD YOU DO AFTER A SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH?

Act quickly.

In many cases:

  • Evidence disappears within days
  • Vehicles are repaired or destroyed
  • Medical records are altered or incomplete
  • Insurance companies begin building defenses immediately

The earlier a lawyer is involved, the stronger the case can be.
