Freeport, TX Personal Injury Law Firms & Lawyers

If you really think the apartment caused your breathing problems you ought to move before nightfall. If your doctor will say the apartment caused your problems then the question becomes whether the landlord did what is reasonable about maintenance. If he did not properly maintain the property and that was the direct cause of your health situation and the doctor is willing to say that your claim may fly. It is always a problem of connecting things up and usually this must be done by doctors and labs. And doctors don't like to gu3ess at things or take chances or render opinions that might be contradicted and make them look silly in court. So find a strong doctors opinion and get a good PI lawyer. It aint easy. The legislature protects doctors as a political matter and doctors don't take many chances.

You can sue, but suing a hospital is a very expensive and traumatic process. No lawyer is likely to take your case on contingency, i.e. on an agreement to get paid only out of what he or she can recover for you, because the cost of preparing and presenting your case will be much higher than the dollar amount you are likely to recover if you win. In short, though your case may be a liability winner, it's a money loser. Thank your Texas legislature and Supreme Court, and while you're at it thank the insurance companies and your fellow citizens (juries who buy the insurance company line) for making it impossible for malpractice victims to get justice in the vast majority of cases.
