Car Accident 65%

Auto accident claims are the most common personal injury cases. This has always been the majority of our claims. We only handle death or serious injury claims. We go for all the insurance we can find and we go after all potential defendants until we collect all the insurance money or all our damages, whichever comes first. We also go after under-insured motorist claims and passenger claims, when available. We also go after employer liability and and Dram Shop liability.

Personal Injury 20%

All of our cases are "personal injury" cases, but this percentage is for the ones that are not wrongful death or vehicular crashes. This would include products liability, premises liability, sexual assault, etc. We also handle other cases where our client killed or hurt due to the negligent or intentional act of another. We our website for a complete list.

Wrongful Death 15%

Wrongful death is when someone is killed due to the negligent or intentional act of another. If the decedent endured conscious pain and suffering before death, there is also a "survivorship" claim. The wrongful death damages for loss of consortium can go only to spouse, children, and parents of decedent. The survivorship damages go to the estate of the decedent and pass according to will or law. Only a qualified expert attorney should handle a wrongful death claim.

Posted by anonymous | June 02, 2022 | Hired Attorney | Slip and Fall Accident

Successful Settlement

Our personal attorney recommended Mr. Walton after I experienced a fall in a D/FW area business. Historically, "slip and fall" cases are not lucrative/successful in Texas, but Mr. Walton and his staff felt that my case was unique. We proceeded to consult, gather information and proceed after I was re...leased from medical care. Then Covid happened. It was frustrating for everyone, as the legal system came to a halt. Walton and his staff proceeded by gathering information, exploring options, and ultimately reaching a settlement that was satisfactory to me. I'm grateful to everyone in his practice for their time, caring attitudes, expertise and encouragement. I hope I never need a personal injury attorney again, but if I do, I'll call Mr. Walton.

  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
