General Negligence

General negligence is a broad term that can be applied to nearly all personal injury lawsuits. General negligence can be intentional or accidental, but when you are injured by someone else, you have a right to seek compensation for your damages.

Since 1998, the personal injury attorneys at Guerra Moore Attorneys at Law have been helping victims of general negligence in McAllen, Texas recover from their injuries. Under a general negligence lawsuit, you can seek compensation for:

1. Pain and suffering
2. Current and future lost wages
3. Property damage
4. Current and future medical expenses related to the injury

Proving damages in a general negligence lawsuit can be difficult. You need a dedicated attorney on your side who will fight tirelessly for you and your family. Settlements are often offered outside of court. The attorneys at Guerra & Moore know that the best way to recover all of your damages is through a trial, or that, at the very least, the threat of a trial will improve the settlements you are offered. We have a long history of winning these cases through tough legal action.

In order to prove negligence, you will need to prove that the other party failed to act in the same way a reasonable, responsible person would have under the same circumstances. This can apply to any number of circumstances, including:

1. Automobile accidents
2. Semi truck accidents
3. Dram shop
4. Aviation accidents
5. Premise liability
6. Animal attacks
7. Nursing home neglect

Trying to recover damages on your own can result in settlements that are inadequate to cover all of your expenses. In some cases, you may not be awarded anything at all. Only with an experienced attorney on your side can you ensure that you and your family receive the full compensation to which the law entitles you. And we work on contingency, meaning that we don't get paid unless you do.
