Types of Personal Injury Cases We Handle

With nearly 25 years in practice, our firm has successfully handled all types of personal injury claims. We have earned a reputation for record-setting success and, unlike many other law firms, we have the real courtroom experience needed to skillfully handle these cases.

Our firm can assist you with any of the following types of personal injury cases:

If you or your loved one was severely injured due to someone else’s careless or reckless actions, our Austin attorneys can help you fight for the full, fair compensation you are owed. While financial recovery cannot undo the harm you have suffered, it can help with the cost of medical treatment, including immediate care, surgeries, ongoing rehabilitation therapy, and more.

Financial recovery can also help those who have lost wages and/or income as a result of having to take off work and may be used to compensate individuals who are no longer able to return to work at all. Our firm can help you understand your options and help you fight to secure the maximum recovery you are owed for your pain and suffering.

At Howry Breen & Herman, we understand the severe, life-altering consequences of an accident. All too often, these accidents are caused by another person or entity’s negligence and, when this is the case, those negligent parties should be held accountable. Our team can act as your legal advocate and guide.

We take the time to listen to your story, understand your goals, and devise the best plan of action for your unique situation. While we strive to help our clients avoid the time and stress of a trial, sometimes a fair settlement simply isn’t possible. When this is the case, we are not afraid to fight for you in the courtroom.

Our Austin lawyers have earned recognition from numerous prestigious organizations and publications, including Best Lawyers in America® for both Personal Injury and Commercial Litigation, Top 50 US Verdicts, Texas Verdicts Hall of Fame, Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum, National Top 100 Trial Lawyers, and Super Lawyers®.
