Criminal Law

• DUI/DWI
  We know that injuries you sustain from a drunk driving accident can be irreparable and life changing. The defendant should be held responsible for the consequences of his or her actions. However, they often will have an insurance company working on their behalf to negate his or her conduct while attempting to reduce the amount of compensation you are entitled to. You need a powerful advocate on your side. Call Todd R. Durham today.
• Wrongful Death
  As a bicycle rider, you have rights. There are many laws to protect bicycle riders in the Lewisville, Fort Worth, and cities all over Texas. A strong effort has been made to establish bike paths for those who enjoy riding for pleasure or sport. Unfortunately, there are negligent drivers hitting bicycle riders every year. Our firm has dealt with bicycle accident injury cases from small claims to significant litigated cases resulting in permanent disability or wrongful death. If you have been in a bicycle accident, you need to talk to a bicycle accident attorney immediately.
• Traffic Violations
  When you have been involved in an automobile accident, the police and the insurance companies will be using evidence in order to determine who is to be held liable. If the other driver was at fault, then you may receive monetary compensation in the form of a settlement. However, if you are guilty of reckless driving, or contributing to the accident, your compensation may be less or even none depending on your involvement.
• Sex Crimes
• Robbery
  To give an extreme example, a visitor could be injured during an armed robbery on your property. This visitor could then sue you or your company for inadequate security against armed robbery.

• Dog Bites
  When you are talking about a “dog bite,” you are referring to a sub-sect of the broad term “personal injury,” which is a type of area of law. For example, all dogs are animals, but not all animals are dogs. Many personal injury attorneys represent clients with dog bite claims, but not all do. When you choose a dog bite lawyer, you can rest assured that they have extensive experience in the area of dog bites specifically.
• Slip and Fall Injury
  To determine liability for a slip and fall injury, several aspects of the accident may be evaluated. The length of time during which the dangerous condition was present may show that the property owner had ample time to identify and correct the problem. If the hazard could have been prevented or remedied easily, failure to do so is considered negligence. Negligence may also be indicated when the property owner fails to post warnings about a known hazardous condition. Evaluating a slip and fall claim can be complex and is best done by a legal professional.

Trusts and Estates

• Power of Attorney
  A power attorney following a brain injury will authorize one individual or agent to manage personal and financial affairs for the time being. If you’re injured, we’ll help you write up a power of attorney and ensure it is followed to the letter.
