A car accident can change your life in a matter of seconds.
Going from your daily routine to dealing with pain, missing work, doctor appointments, and answering questions from the insurance company that’s more concerned about minimizing payouts than your suffering.
You may not know what your claim is worth or whether an offer from the insurance company is actually fair. You may also be worried about what happens if your injuries take longer to heal than expected. All of this can be a lot, and you shouldn’t have to navigate through it alone.
At Djiba Law, we help people in Austin and throughout Central Texas understand their legal options after a serious motor vehicle accident.
Attorney Malick Djiba will take the time to understand what happened and how the crash has affected your life before determining how to approach your claim.
When you are trying to recover from an injury, dealing with an insurance claim can feel like another full-time job. There are reports to collect, medical records to keep track of, insurance companies to deal with, and important decisions that can affect your ability to recover compensation.
Attorney Malick Djiba has more than a decade of experience representing people injured in personal injury cases. He understands that every accident presents its own set of circumstances, which is why he takes the time to look at the details rather than treating every claim the same way.
Djiba Law represents people injured in car, motorcycle, bicycle, pedestrian, rideshare, and other roadway accidents. Whether the main issue involves who caused the crash, available insurance coverage, medical treatment, lost income, or the long-term effects of an injury, Attorney Djiba will work with you to understand what happened and determine what steps make sense for your particular situation.
Soon after you’ve been in an accident, you may receive a phone call from an insurance company asking what happened. Or you might even be presented with a settlement before you have a clear idea of how serious your injuries are.
You might wonder whether you should give a recorded statement, accept the offer, or continue treatment before making any decisions. There is no reason to rush into an agreement simply because an insurance company wants to resolve the claim quickly.
It’s important for you to understand that once you accept a settlement, it can be difficult to receive additional compensation if your injuries are more serious than previously thought.
Depending on the circumstances, your claim may involve medical expenses, lost wages, reduced earning ability, pain and suffering, property damage, or the cost of future care. Attorney Djiba can review the facts and help you understand what losses may be part of your claim and what evidence will be needed to support them.
There is a lot that goes into a personal injury claim that you may never see from the outside. At Djiba Law, we can gather crash reports, photographs, witness information, medical records, insurance documents, and other evidence that may help establish what happened and how the accident affected you.
We can also communicate with the insurance companies on your behalf and help identify the coverage that may be available. If the insurer disputes responsibility or refuses to recognize the seriousness of your injuries, Attorney Djiba can explain what legal options may be available and help you determine how you want to proceed.
Attorney Djiba strongly believes it is important for clients to understand what is happening with their case and why every decision matters. You should never feel like you are simply waiting for someone else to tell you what happens next. And you won’t with Djiba Law.
After an accident, it can be tempting to accept the first settlement offer and put the entire experience behind you. Before you do that, make sure you understand what you may be giving up and whether the offer accounts for the full impact of your injuries.
Djiba Law offers a 100% free consultation, and you pay no attorney's fees unless you win. A flat 33% contingency fee may be available for qualifying personal injury cases based on the facts and timing of the claim.
