Personal Injury
Personal Injury Accidents.
First off, what defines a personal injury? Personal injuries are defined as an injury that occurs due to the negligence of another individual. Outcomes and circumstances surrounding a personal injury are measured by how a cautious person would react in a comparable situation. At The Law Office of Cassandra Evans-Jones we provide facts that the opposing party is liable or at fault. Below are the most common personal injury cases our law firm intake.

Personal Injury Process.
After an injury due to an accident or negligence, receiving medical treatment and legal counsel at once is crucial to an individual’s case. Our personal injury process provides the necessary information and assures us that the proper criteria are met.
1. Client Injured.
The first phase of a claim is where a client is injured in a vehicle accident, slip and fall, or any incident where negligence is involved.
2. Hospital or Emergency Care.
Whether the injuries are minor, severe, or life-threatening we suggest that all clients seek immediate medical attention.
3a. Legal Counsel.
Immediately following hospitalization, we suggest giving The Law Office of Cassandra Evans-Jones a call at 713-524-4040 to discuss your options.
3b. Physical Therapy.
Once we’ve discussed the parameters of the accident and injuries, we will refer you to a physical therapy clinic or medical professional to rehabilitate injuries.
4. Release Medicals.
Upon completion of any surgeries or physical therapy, we will request release of all medical information for our attorneys to evaluate.
5. File Claim.
The last step of the personal injury process is gathering and evaluating all the documentation from the accident or incident. At the conclusion of this step, we file an actual claim.
