  • Frequently Asked Questions

    • Do I really need a lawyer?
      In the end, this is a question that you will have to answer for yourself. If you think you might need legal counsel, take the necessary steps to find out more about the services a lawyer can offer. Some firms offer free initial case reviews or may charge a small fee for an in-person consultation. Either way, a case evaluation can help you get a better idea of what you are up against and in what ways a legal professional can help. test content
    • What if I can't afford legal counsel?
      Before worrying about whether you can afford legal counsel, talk to an attorney about your options. Your type of case may be handled on a contingent fee basis, meaning you pay no up-front legal fees and may pay nothing at all unless your case is successful. Personal injury, wrongful death and product liability cases fall under this category. At The West Law Firm, our clients pay no up-front costs and we only collect our fee if we win the case.
    • How should I choose an attorney?
      A good place to start is asking trusted friends and family members for recommendations. You can also call your local bar association or look online for legal professionals serving your area. From there, you can talk to different attorneys and review their credentials to determine whether they may be qualified to handle your case. This is a personal choice, so it is also important that you feel comfortable with an attorney or firm.
    • How do I know if I have grounds for a personal injury case?

      It is impossible to say whether one has a valid personal injury case without a thorough review of all pertinent information: the incident itself, the extent of injury, the parties involved, the evidence at hand and more. When you talk to a Sugar Land personal injury lawyer at The West Law Firm, you can rest assured that we will consider any and all factors in play to offer an accurate case analysis.

    • Is it really possible to go up against a manufacturing giant?
      Automobile manufacturers are million- and billion-dollar corporations with seemingly limitless assets, making them formidable opponents in and out of the courtroom. If you have been injured by a defective product, however, you need to remember that you have rights. Manufacturers, distributors, retailers and other responsible parties need to be held accountable when their products cause consumer injury. With our experience and resources at your side, you have a chance to seek justice and recover compensation that will help you rebuild after a serious accident or injury. Individual or class action, we may be able to help.
    • What are some of the product liability cases you handle?
      Our firm handles cases involving injury and wrongful death caused by various consumer products, including motor vehicles, construction equipment, industrial equipment and children's toys. Design defects and manufacturing flaws can make virtually any product unsafe; our legal team is here to hold at-fault parties accountable.
