Client Resources

I don’t have health insurance. Can I still get medical treatment for my injuries?

Yes. If you’ve been injured due to someone else’s negligence, we can help you get the care you need—even without health insurance. We work with trusted doctors who treat personal injury patients on a lien basis, meaning they wait for payment until your case settles.

Will I have to pay out of pocket to see a doctor?

Not necessarily. Many of our clients receive treatment through a "letter of protection", allowing you to get care now and pay from your settlement later—no upfront costs required.

Can you help find a doctor near where I live?

Yes. We connect you with qualified providers (general physicians, chiropractors, surgeons, or physical therapists) close to your home or workplace.

What kinds of treatment can you help me get?

We arrange for:

• Emergency care
• MRIs & diagnostic imaging
• Pain management
• Physical therapy
• Surgery (if needed)

What if I’ve already seen a doctor but can’t afford to continue?

Contact us. We may transition your care to a provider who accepts liens, ensuring uninterrupted treatment.

Why is immediate medical care important, even if I feel fine?

Hidden injuries can worsen over time, and delays may harm both your health and legal claim.

Can I sue a city or government entity in Texas for my injury?
