Truck Accident Case was Settled in 5 Months!

I contacted Fitts Zehl and several other lawyers in Houston and Dallas after my car was rear ended by a semi on I-35 outside Dallas. The driver must have fallen asleep because he hit me going over 60 mph and caused my car to flip over. I didn't hire a lawyer for several months because I figured... the truck company would pay for the damage to my car, which was totaled, and pay my medical bills. Was I wrong! I knew after talking to other lawyers that Ryan was the lawyer that I wanted to help me. I could tell he knew what he was doing and that he was going to help me recover everything I lost since the accident. Ryan told me not to worry and that they would make sure that I was taken care of. While the case was going on, his staff made sure that I got to the right doctors and was able to pay for my surgery and bills, since I didn't have insurance. They came to check on me at the hospital and helped me get back and forth to the doctors since I didn't have a car anymore and couldn't drive for 2 months after the surgery. Even though I was rear ended and was driving the speed limit, the trucking company was trying to blame me because they said that my brake lights weren't working. I couldn't believe it! Less than 6 months later, Ryan was able to settle out of court for an amount that I never would have imagined! The truck company paid for my car, all my medical bills, plus enough to take care of myself and my son for as long as I would ever need! I would recommend Ryan and his law firm to anyone who was seriously hurt in an accident!

Great guys, really helped me out

A great group of guys. I was hurt on an oil rig and looked around for someone to help. A couple guys I work with recomended Fitts Zehl. I didn't know what to expect since I've never gone to a trial before, but my friends were right. Fitts and Zehl both answered any questions I had quickly during the ...whole proces. They also got me the damages amount we asked the jury for. I felt real comfortable. I can't tell you how lucky I am to have found these guys.
