Car Accident

Burress Law dealt with my case head on. Trisha was a God sent! So friendly, caring and very honest about everything when she contacted me. This law firm was very professional and went above and beyond on my case. I highly recommend Burress Law, PPLC.

The Burress team is top notch!

After being hit by a drunk driver, my wife and I were hesitant about filing a lawsuit. From the first email/phone call we had with them, they made us feel very comfortable and assured, we were doing the correct thing. Their entire team of doctors and specialists were extremely precise and helpful thr...oughout the entire process. Hannah was always just a phone call away with any questions we had, and we had plenty. We would recommend the Burress injury law firm to anyone with no reservations. We’re very happy and content with our outcome.

Thankful to Burres Law

I am thankful to Kyle Hejl and his team for helping me out when I was hit by a reckless driver. My experience with Burres Law has been very positive. They are honest professionals who helped me out in each phase of getting back on my feet after the car accident. I am thankful for the health care I re...ceived and the compensation for the damages.

The Burress Law Firm - Outstanding and Professional!

On the day of my birthday as I was driving back home northbound in the middle lane, I was broadsided by a southbound driver who decided to take a left at the intersection without yielding. The collision caused my SUV and her sedan to be totaled on the spot. The next several weeks I ended up dealing w...ith head, neck, shoulder spine, chest, ribs, and leg injuries while missing work at the same time. I realized I was going to need some professional help, so I began looking for a law firm. Looked and read hundreds of reviews of various law firms and I stumbled across “Burress Law Firm” who was rated one of THE BEST personal injury firms out there and immediately contacted them through their online portal as it was a late night. The very same night, unexpectedly I got a response back from Jason Burress about the next steps. Within no time, my appointment was set up for the next morning for an initial consultation. First meet - My appointment was with Hannah Conrardy(attorney) and Noemi Peralta(paralegal). They listened carefully, were sympathetic but not patronizing, and took all of my documentation. Unlike "tough, smart, hammers" you see on TV, they're careful in reviewing your case before promising to take it on. They set clear expectations right from the beginning and were transparent so that there are no surprises. I had no second thoughts whatsoever signing them as my representatives and they were able to set up me with paperwork and communications on the same day. As anticipated, things slowed down during COVID and the at-fault’s insurance company was not easy and cooperative to deal with which made the proceedings even more difficult. But both Noemi and Hannah made sure things stayed on track and kept me in the loop all the time through video and phone calls. Their communication channel through texts was by far the best I have seen out there - got my questions answered quickly. Just made my life easy! They connected me to the right orthopedic doctor and neurologist flawlessly who helped me recover. They pushed both the insurance companies to get the maximum settlement for the trauma I went through. In the end - Jason Burress even advised me to optimize my auto insurance so that I get the best coverage for personal injuries. When I look back at this experience holistically - I am just grateful for their empathy and concern they had for my well being. I highly recommend Jason Burress and his expert team to fight for anyone who has been injured by another party on any occasion no matter how minor or major injuries may be. They will tag-team the opponent and their insurance company and will get you what you deserve!

Jason Burress. Burress Law.

Burress law was extremely helpful during the entire process after my wife and my car accident. Before contacting Burress law, having no idea where to turn but knowing we needed assistance, we reached out to friends and family to discover if anyone knew of how to contact a good and trusted law...yer. A few names came up, but one came up more prominently on a “mom’s of Plano” type of Facebook page, Burress Law. My wife and I had no idea what to do next as we left the hospital. Besides coming back around a week later for a follow up, we were left without any idea of further check ups, or physical therapy. This is where Burresss law came in. They helped us see a doctor, have physical therapy, and be sure we were not injured more than we knew by taking further tests. Basically, they made sure that we could be on the right track to be whole again. It is weird looking back on this process realizing the lawyers are apparently the ones with the know-how as to the healing after leaving the hospital after a vehicle accident. So after we went through therapy, doctors visits, and other things to try and heal our badly injured bodies, we eventually got to a place where we were feeling better. Then Mr. Burress and his team went to work, focusing on the legal side instead of legal and healing. He did all the contact with the insurance company on my behalf. I know from dealing with the insurance from the vehicle value and rental side of things that it can be frustrating and exhausting, so I am glad Burress’ team handled all of the medical side. Mr. Burress kept in touch with me by phone and text, being readily available to answer questions about the process and the steps we have to take. My case was a little more complicated because my wife and I unfortunately didn’t have insurance during the time of our accident. Mr. Burress did his best to make sure my medical fees were not astronomical like is often charged to those who are non insured by negotiating with the hospital on my behalf. Now, at the end of my case, Jason Burress and their team did everything they could to take care of my well being and make this life changing event as stress free as possible.

"I have known Jason for almost six years on a professional level. During that time, I have had the opportunity to work with him on several occasions. First, when he was an attorney at a litigation firm in Dallas, Texas and most recently, when he established his own firm in McKinney, Texas. Without reservation, I can say that Jason is an excellent attorney. I have always found Jason to not only be hard working, but also reasonable with opposing counsel. In addition, his trial skills and knowledge of the law are outstanding. In my current practice, when the opportunity presents, I refer clients to Jason. I know these clients will be well served by Jason and his firm."
