Thousands of people die in accidents involving large trucks each year, and more than 100,000 others are seriously injured annually, according to the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration. The NHTSA reports that two-thirds of the fatalities were people in other vehicles, not the semi-trucks.

If you or a loved one has been injured in an accident with a truck, you need an experienced truck accident lawyer to fight for your rights. The laws and regulations related to the trucking industry can be difficult to understand. The experienced legal professionals of The Law Offices of Keivan S. Romero has the knowledge and experience necessary to get you the compensation you deserve. Call me today for a free consultation.

Truck Accidents can be Deadly

According to the National Highway Transportation Administration, one out of every 8 fatal crashes on American highways involves a semi-truck. Because trucks usually weigh up to 30 times more than cars, many times the people killed in accidents involving semi-trucks are the drivers or passengers of other vehicles, and not the driver of the truck.

Some of the most common causes of truck accidents include:

• Speeding
• Overloading
• Equipment failure
• Tailgating
• Distracted driving, including cellphone use
• Bad weather conditions
• Poor visibility

Truck accident lawsuits can be especially complex and difficult because they may involve multiple responsible parties, including the truck driver, the trucking company, the owner of the trailer, the company leasing the trailer, other negligent drivers, and equipment manufacturers.

In addition, it takes an in-depth knowledge and understanding of a wide range of state and federal trucking laws and regulations. The Law Offices of Keivan S. Romero has experience investigating truck accident claims, and we have the resources necessary to get you the results you deserve.

If you’ve been injured or have lost a loved one in a car accident, you probably have more important things than money on your mind. But any vehicle can be extremely financially costly to your family, and taking legal action can ease that burden and help you focus on getting better.

Being in an accident of any kind is a frightening and overwhelming experience that and the problems that come affect your life in many ways.  All of a sudden, you are left to figure out how to pay your medical bills and get to work without a working vehicle.

You May Be Entitled To Compensation

Filing a legal claim after your accident may not be something you have immediately considered. You may even be thinking it’s only an additional and unnecessary hassle – something you can easily go on without. But the aftermath of an accident can put you in a difficult situation emotionally and financially. Pursuing a claim may result in monetary compensation (or “damages”) which can greatly help ease the burden.

More than the monetary value of compensation, the justice you can achieve through your claim can give you back your peace of mind following your accident.

Romero can provide you with a free, no obligation and 100% initial confidential consultation.

A wrongful death claim is one that arises from the death of an individual that was caused by the negligence or intentional conduct of another person. These types of claims are different than other types of personal injury lawsuits because the person(s) bringing the lawsuit is not the actual victim, but the family members or the victim’s estate. Most deadly accidents are preventable tragedies that occur because of a reckless disregard for the safety of others or an intentional act that cost someone their life. At the Law Offices of Keivan S. Romero, I understand how difficult these situations are and that you may not know where to turn after the sudden or unexpected loss of a loved one. Due to the complicated nature of these types of cases, it is imperative that you have a knowledgeable wrongful death attorney by your side.

In the case of the wrongful death of a loved one, you may be entitled to more damages such as:

• Loss of companionship
• Mental anguish
• Loss of guidance and nurturing
• Funeral and burial expenses
• Loss of benefits

Types of Wrongful Death Claims

Wrongful death cases are different than other personal injury claims. Only in the event that another party’s negligence or reckless actions caused the loss of life can those responsible be held accountable. Some of the wrongful death claims that our law firm handles include the following:

• Fatal accidents
• Motorcycle and recreational vehicle accidents
• Boating accidents
• Automotive design flaws
• Medical malpractice
• Construction/industrial accidents
• Dangerous drugs
• Burn injuries or electrocution
• Pool drowning
• Wrongful shootings
• Police chase accidents

With my help you will have a better chance of receiving monetary compensation to cover damages from expenses associated with the death, lost benefits, and pain, suffering, or mental anguish suffered by survivors of the deceased.

Premises liability laws are in place in order to hold property owners responsible for any accidents that take place on their site as a result of negligence. Property, business, and facility owners can all be held directly accountable and responsible for any injuries or illnesses that occur on their premises because of negligence or lack of proper maintenance. In Texas property owners are required to make sure that their property is free from hazards and safe for people of all ages, regardless of the time of day. If this duty has been breached and someone suffers an injury, or worse, as a result, the victim may be able to file a premises liability claim against the property owner. While it is true that the most common premises liability claims involve slip and fall accidents, there are numerous other forms of property liability for which an owner or operator may be charged with. It is important to note that one of the most important aspects of premises liability claims is proving that the property owner was negligent and could have prevented the accident on their grounds through the implementation of better safety measures. If you or someone you love has been injured or killed in an accident that occurred on someone else’s property and you think someone could have made the premises safer.

Common Types of Premises Liability Claims

In large part because premises liability claims can frequently involve businesses, corporations, and entities with seemingly limitless resources, it is imperative that you have a qualified premises liability attorney on your side when you wish to pursue legal action. As mentioned, there are numerous forms of premises liability injuries and cases, including the following:

• Slips and falls
• Diving accidents
• Balcony accidents
• Stairs and railing accidents
• Inadequate security
• Elevator accidents
• Escalator Accidents
• Walking Area Accidents
• Amusement Park Accidents
• Swimming Pool Accidents
• Hotel Negligence
• Department Store Negligence
• Trip and Fall Accidents
• Electrocutions
• Uneven pavement or floors
• Open holes or excavations
• Falling objects
• Insufficient lighting

Determining liability in premises liability accidents is complex and can be extremely difficult to prove. Laws vary from state to state, which is why it is important to retain the services of a knowledgeable attorney from the Law Offices of Keivan S. Romero if you believe you have a premises liability case.

It’s almost always the case that the other driver didn’t see the motorcyclist while turning driving. Yet motorcycle operators are often blamed as reckless, despite operating in a legal manner.

Our experts can reconstruct an accident scene.  In many cases, the other driver is found to have caused the accident through negligence such as:

• Rear-ending the motorcyclist while talking on a cell phone
• Failing to leave sufficient room when following or changing lanes
• Cutting the motorcyclist off when turning left
• Running a motorcyclist into the ditch or onto a gravel shoulder off the road

The Law Offices of Keivan S. Romero also pursue additional claims. These claims may involve holding manufacturers accountable for defective tires or holding a municipality or the State of Texas accountable for dangerous road conditions, or a malfunctioning traffic signal.

In four out of every five motorcycle accidents, the operator or passenger is seriously hurt. Due to the lack of protection, catastrophic injuries are common, and many crashes are fatal.

Keivan S. Romero fully understands the medical and legal complications clients endure when suffering from a serious injury, such as a spinal injury or a head injury.

Children should be able to grow up in environments where adults are dedicated to their health and safety. As parents, caretakers and responsible citizens, we should do everything we can to protect the children in our lives. Unfortunately, innocent children too often become victims of an adult’s negligent or reckless behavior and suffer serious injuries.

How Are Child Injury Cases Different From Other Personal Injury Cases?

Legally, the time for filing a lawsuit could be different for children than with adults. The insurance company may tell you to wait, but that might not always be the best choice. By waiting too long, you could risk losing claims for your child or for family members who were affected by the injury. Any time a child is injured it is essential that you immediately consult with an attorney who has experience handling injuries to children. This will allow you to make sure the claims are made properly and give you the best chance of obtaining full compensation.

Handling a Variety of Child Accident and Injury Cases

At our firm, we represent children and families in a variety of different personal injury cases. Some examples of issues we handle are:

• Children injured in car accident

• School bus accidents

At all times, we keep in mind the sensitive nature of children’s issues, and we treat every child and family with complete respect. Our goal is to provide aggressive representation against negligent parties and their insurers while providing compassionate, understanding service to every client.

Whether your child suffered a bone fracture, a back injury, a neck injury or any other serious injury, we are ready to help. If you have lost your child in an accident, we can help you pursue a wrongful death claim. We understand that no amount of compensation can make up for a child’s serious injury or death, but it can at least give your family the means to move forward in life.

How do you put a price on a life-altering injury? An injured person can readily name what was lost, both tangible and intangible, and yet no amount of money can truly restore their losses.

The value of a personal injury lawsuit is two-fold: 1) it ensures the injured person receives adequate funds to cover medical care and financial losses, and 2) it holds the negligent party accountable. In the case of a drunk driver or a negligent doctor, holding them accountable may make a significant difference in how they act in the future.

Our firm represents clients throughout greater Houston.

Burns are among the most painful and potentially disabling of catastrophic injuries. Victims who suffer burn injuries may face a lengthy and expensive stay in a burn unit, the potential for multiple surgeries, and a significant risk of contracting a serious infection while the skin heals. Permanent disfigurement from scarring is common.

Since burn injuries can involve many serious medical issues and a long list of medical treatments, victims often find themselves forced to pay expensive hospital bills. Many also cannot return to work while they recover and missing out on your wages can make financial difficulties even worse.

Trying to find your way back to a normal life after a burn injury can be extremely challenging, but a qualified Houston burn injury attorney can help lighten your load and give you hope by fighting for just compensation.

Types of Burn Injuries

A burn occurs when some part of the body is damaged by energy (heat) or chemicals. Burns are classified by degree and thickness, or the depth of the burn.

The depth varies depending on what part of the body is burned and the condition of the person’s skin when the burn occurs. For instance, the skin of the face is thinner than the skin of the legs or back. Children and older adults typically have more delicate skin than working-age adults.

The following are the main types of burn injuries:

• First Degree Burns – These burns affect only the outermost layer of skin. The skin may be red and painful, but the burn is dry and typically heals in three to five days. Sometimes, patients are hospitalized for pain management and to replace lost fluids.
• Second Degree Burns – These burns affect both the top layer of skin (the epidermis) and one or more layers underneath (the dermis). They are pink or red in color and painful. Healing may take two to three weeks. In some cases, a skin graft is required before healing can occur.
• Third Degree Burns – These burns destroy all layers of the skin and affect the tissues beneath the skin (the subcutaneous tissues). They appear black or white and may be leathery in texture. The third-degree burn itself will not hurt, but areas surrounding it may be intensely painful. Skin grafts are frequently required, and the risk of infection is high. Healing may take months and scarring nearly always occurs.
• Fourth Degree Burns – These burns extend into the muscle or bone. Amputation of the affected limb may be required to save the patient’s life. Healing takes many months, and permanent impairment is expected. Many of these cases are fatal.

Common Causes of Burn Injuries

A wide variety of dangers can result in burn injuries. Some common causes include:

• Heat sources – Thermal burns are a result of exposure to heat energy. For example, a hot stove or iron, an open flame, an explosion, boiling water, or even full sunlight can result in thermal burns.
• Chemical exposure – Chemical exposure can lead to chemical burns to the skin or eyes, as well as to internal organs like the esophagus or lungs if a chemical is inhaled or ingested. The type and severity of the burn will depend on the chemical, its concentration, and the exposure.
• Electrical sources – Electrocution can result in electrical burns. Because these injuries are caused by an electrical current, their treatment can be complicated by other symptoms of electrocution, like heart rhythm disruption or brain damage.
• Radiation – Radioactive sources can cause radiation burns. Like electrical burns, these can be difficult to treat because they are complicated by other side effects of radiation exposure.

Some of the types of cases we can help you with include:

• Burns in car accidents: Our accident attorneys can thoroughly investigate the cause of your car accident and identify all possible sources of compensation, including benefits that could come from your own policy such as PIP  and uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage.
• Burns at work: If you were burned in a workplace accident, our attorneys can make sure your injury is properly documented and that your workers’ compensation claim is properly filed. You can trust that we will skillfully negotiate with your employer and the insurance company to pursue maximum workers’ compensation benefits for you. We will also explore the potential for a third-party workplace injury claim if your burns were caused by the negligence of someone other than your employer or co-workers.
• Burns from a dangerous product: When a dangerous or defective product causes a burn injury, our attorneys can identify all the liable parties, which may include the product’s manufacturer, the distributor, the retailer, and any other company in the chain of distribution. We can then work to pursue full and fair compensation for you through a product liability claim.
• Burns while on someone else’s property: If you were burned in an accident due to unsafe conditions on someone else’s property, our attorneys can help you pursue what’s called a “premises liability” claim to recover compensation for your injuries.

In every burn injury case we handle, our attorneys identify all possible at-fault parties and potential sources of compensation. When we sit down for your free case consultation, we will listen as you describe your accident in depth and we will determine how we can pursue maximum compensation for you. You do not need to worry about paying us anything upfront. Our firm does not collect any attorney’s fees unless and until we successfully recover compensation for you.

Burn Injuries Caused by Negligence

When you are coping with the aftermath of a severe burn injury caused by someone else’s negligence, you shouldn’t have to worry about mounting medical bills, missing days from work, and how your family will stay afloat financially. The law specifies that innocent people should not have to bear the terrible financial burdens of an injury caused by another party’s irresponsible actions.

Burn victims can seek damages from the party legally liable, or responsible, for their injury. A person or group might be legally liable if their negligence directly or indirectly caused you to get burned.

For example, consider the manufacturer of a faulty stove. If you were burned in a home fire caused by a defective stove top, you might be owed financial compensation from the product’s manufacturer.

We can consider a car accident for another example of a burn injury caused by negligence. A drunk driver causes a collision, and a fire starts due to the crash. You may be able to recover damages from that negligent driver.

If you were injured at work, you might be legally entitled to benefits even without showing someone did something wrong to cause the accident. Workers’ compensation laws offer a broad range of protections for those hurt on the job.

Whatever the cause of your burn injury, you could benefit greatly from speaking with a skilled legal professional. The Law Offices of Keivan S. Romero will identify all potentially at-fault parties and potential sources of compensation for every burn case we handle.

Do I Need an Attorney after a Serious Burn Injury?

Following an accident that causes serious burn injuries, many victims wonder whether their injuries can be traced to someone else’s wrongdoing. Tragically, some never even consider the possibility that they might be owed substantial compensation for the accident.

• Payments for all related medical bills, including those that you may incur in the future.
• Lost wages and your diminished earning capacity.
• Compensation for the pain, suffering, and emotional distress you have suffered due to the injury.
• Compensation for permanent impairment and/or disfigurement
• Payment for property damage
• Punitive damages, which are meant to punish the at-fault party for exceptional misconduct.

A traumatic brain injury or TBI can be terrifying for a person and their family. Beyond the physical injury, which is often invisible, the emotional road to recovery can be brutal. Victims of brain trauma can experience depression, anxiety, confusion, mood swings, and agitation that cause extreme stress on the entire family. What makes it worse is that the injured person looks perfectly normal while he or she suffers these debilitating symptoms in his or her head.

The Law Offices of Keivan S. Romero has helped countless accident victims and their families recover the compensation they need to push through their darkest times.

When medical bills are piling up and the prospect of making long-term care plans seems overwhelming, our brain injury attorneys can help you assess your options for holding the at-fault party accountable. And recovering compensation for your injuries and other losses.

What Are the Signs of Traumatic Brain Injury?

The brain is a complicated organ, and symptoms of traumatic brain injury may not be immediately apparent after an accident. That’s why it is important to seek medical attention immediately if you or a loved one has suffered any type of blow to the head or sudden impact. The National Institutes of Health warns that signs of a brain injury may include:

• Headache, especially one that gets worse over time or doesn’t go away
• Confusion, lightheadedness, or dizziness
• Blurred vision or enlargement of the pupils
• Ringing in the ears
• A sensitivity to light or sound
• A bad taste in the mouth
• Slurred speech
• Nausea or vomiting
• Tiredness, sleepiness, or an inability to wake up
• Loss of consciousness, lasting anywhere from seconds to hours
• Convulsions or seizures
• Behavior or mood changes, including restlessness or agitation
• Trouble with memory, concentration, or attention
• Loss of coordination
• Numbness or tingling in the arms or legs

Even if you feel fine immediately after an accident, you should always see a doctor as soon as possible. Symptoms may not appear until later, but a medical professional will want to identify and begin treating a traumatic brain injury right away.

Causes of Traumatic Brain Injury

There are several accidents that can leave a person struggling to recover from a traumatic brain injury (TBI). Unfortunately, many of them could have been prevented.

Some of the more common causes of head injuries include:

• Auto accidents: Serious car crashes, motorcycle wrecks, and trucks accidents are some of the most common causes of traumatic brain injuries. Particularly when pedestrians or bicyclists are involved, these injuries can be extremely severe. Negligent or distracted drivers could be to blame for these types of accidents, or defective auto parts could lead to a crash.
• Falls: People can suffer severe brain damage when they slip and fall on poorly maintained property, such as at a store or at work. Those who regularly use ladders or scaffolding can also be involved in serious falls and suffer resulting head injuries.
• Violent crimes: Victims of robberies, domestic abuse, or other violent attacks can be left with serious head trauma. In some cases, the victims are attacked at a place where the property owner could have foreseen the danger, and thus could be held liable.
• Sports injuries: Although anyone could suffer a head injury in a sporting accident, children are particularly vulnerable to traumatic brain injuries such as concussions. Even contact sports that require helmets, such as football and hockey, can be a serious risk.

If you or a loved one has been involved in a serious accident, you should consult with one of our experienced Houston brain injury attorneys as soon as possible.. Our dedicated brain injury lawyers will begin working on your case right away.

Treatment of Traumatic Brain Injury

Because the brain controls every other part of your body, the treatment for a traumatic brain injury can be multi-faceted and long term. A variety of medical professionals may be needed, as well as various medications and extensive rehabilitation. The Brain Injury Association of America explains that patients may require:

• Emergency medical treatment followed by a stay in an intensive care unit (ICU). People who are sent to an ICU may be unconscious, in a coma, or medically unstable. The goal is to stabilize the patient enough to begin rehabilitation as soon as possible, which may occur at the hospital, in a residential rehabilitative facility, nursing home, day treatment facility, or outpatient facility.
• Treatment from a variety of rehabilitative specialists. This may include physiatrists, physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech and language pathologists, rehabilitation nurses, recreational therapists, neuropsychologists, and aquatic therapists.
• Special medications to manage brain injury symptoms. Medications may include painkillers, anti-anxiety agents, anti-coagulants to prevent blood clots, anti-convulsant to prevent seizures, anti-depressants, anti-psychotics, muscle relaxants, sedative-hypnotic agents, or stimulants to increase alertness and attention.
• Help from case managers or social workers. These professionals can coordinate treatment and make sure patients, families, and medical providers are on the same page about treatment goals.
• Home health services, community re-entry, and independent living programs. These services aim to get the injured person back home and transitioning back to living independently and possibly working again. Specialists may work with patients on communication skills, money management, vocational training, and regular activities that are a part of everyday living.

With these complex and extensive treatment options can come massive medical bills. In fact, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that the direct and indirect medical costs of traumatic brain injuries in the United States tops $76.5 billion per year.

Types of Medical Malpractice Lawsuits

Keivan S. Romero has practiced personal injury law. His extensive litigation experience and knowledge of the medical issues enables him to handle all medical malpractice cases:

• Failure to diagnosecancer, heart attacks, meningitis, or other serious conditions — resulting in delayed treatment or death.

Medical malpractice claims are difficult to win. Doctors and hospitals do not like to admit error, out of professional pride and because of implications for license sanctions or increased insurance premiums. They will retain high-powered lawyers to deny your claim to the end. Medical Malpractice Lawyer, Keivan S. Romero has the confidence and resources to take your case as far as necessary.

Our medical malpractice attorneys in Houston obtain all the records pertaining to your diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment, and have this evidence examined by highly qualified, independent physicians. In fact, you cannot bring a malpractice claim in Texas until it has been certified by a doctor in the same field of medicine.

Early settlements are rare, but the insurance company may come around after the “battle of the experts” has played out in your favor.
