Waco Personal Injury Lawyers

When you’re hurt because someone else was careless, everything gets hard at once. Medical bills arrive while you’re out of work. An insurance adjuster calls, sounding friendly, asking for a recorded statement. You need someone in your corner who has done this before, and who the insurance companies know will try the case.

 

Dunnam & Dunnam has represented injured people in Waco and across Central Texas since 1925. Four generations of our family have practiced law in the same place, and that record matters when it’s your case on the line. Jim Dunnam is Board Certified in Civil Trial Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization, a distinction held by a small fraction of Texas lawyers. Insurance companies know which firms settle cheap and which firms show up ready for trial. That difference shows up in what your case is worth

What We Handle

Our personal injury practice covers the ways Central Texans get hurt:

  • Car and truck wrecks, including 18-wheeler and commercial vehicle accidents
  • Motorcycle accidents
  • Wrongful death
  • Catastrophic injuries: brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, burns, amputations
  • Workplace injuries
  • Medical malpractice and nursing home injuries

Each of those links to its own page with more detail. If what happened to you isn’t listed, call anyway. If we can’t help, we’ll point you to someone who can.

What Should I Do After an Injury?

Get medical care first, even if you feel okay. Some serious injuries don’t show symptoms for days. Then document what you can: photos, names of witnesses, the police report number. Do not give the insurance company a recorded statement before you talk to a lawyer. Then call us. The consultation is free, and the earlier we start, the more evidence we can preserve.

What Does a Personal Injury Lawyer Cost?

Nothing up front, and nothing at all unless we win. We work on a contingency fee, which means our fee is a percentage of what we recover for you. If we don’t recover anything, you don’t owe us a fee. You can afford the same lawyers the insurance companies worry about.

How Long Do I Have?

In most Texas personal injury cases you have two years from the date of the injury to file a lawsuit. Some situations shorten or extend that window, and evidence disappears much faster than two years. The sooner you call, the stronger your case.
