Texas personal injury law firm fights for injured clients
An assertive attorney in Texas seeks full compensation for victims
Accidents can occur on the road, in the workplace, or at home. They often have devastating consequences. If you have been injured by someone else’s negligence you may be entitled compensation for medical expenses, lost income, pain, suffering, disability, and loss of life quality. You will receive aggressive and experienced legal representation when you select the Allred Law firm to represent you in Texas. I fight insurance companies and other attorneys to get you the compensation that you deserve.
A Texas injury lawyer with a wealth of experience handles many different types of cases
A personal injury claim is successful if you can prove that someone else was responsible for your pain, and that your injury has resulted in costs (also known as damages). In order to build each case, I use a methodical, assertive approach at the Allred Law firm. I gather and analyze evidence, and when necessary, conduct my own investigation.
Some of the common personal injury cases I handle were caused by:
- Vehicle accidents
- Pedestrian accidents
- Slip and fall incidents
- Oil and gas field accidents
- Medical malpractice
- Harmful prescription drugs
- Birth injuries
- Defective products
- Unsafe property
- Abuse
- Asbestos
- Animal attacks
To do this, I may consult top experts em>– /em>such as trauma doctors, chiropractors, pharmacists and forensics engineers to substantiate your claim. I will consult with top experts to support your claim. These include trauma doctors, chiropractors and pharmacists. Expert witnesses can provide clear and compelling testimony at trial that will help jurors better understand your injuries, their extent, and the impact on your life. And if a family member sustained injury that led to their death, I can represent you or their estate in a wrongful death action.
A hardworking lawyer takes quick action to help injured clients
You should consult an attorney as soon as possible after your injury. This way, an investigation can begin when witnesses’ recollections are fresh and evidence remains available. While you should focus on your recovery, it’s important to protect your legal rights.
Texas law restricts the time you have to file a claim for compensation. As soon as you ask for my assistance, I’ll get started on your case. I will do everything possible to reach a fair settlement, without the need for a long court case. However, if litigation is necessary, my aggressive representation will be there every step of way.

Texas Attorney Battles for Victims of Oil and Gas Field Accidents
Texas lawyer has recovered millions of dollars for victims
Every day, oil and gas workers risk their lives to extract the resources that keep America running. These workers face many risks, whether on land or water. They are vulnerable to catastrophic injuries, such as equipment failures, fires, and toxic gas spills. In the event of a serious injury, victims and families need a lawyer who is aggressive and has a thorough understanding of energy extraction. We have an established track record in Texas of recovering multi-million dollar settlements for oil and gas workers injured on offshore platforms, as well as victims of accidents that occurred in oil and gas fields. Ed Allred, an experienced litigator who has represented both plaintiffs as well as defendants in cases involving the energy industry, is currently representing the largest independent oil refinery company in the United States. This background allows our firm to provide the best legal representation for oil and gas workers.
Ways that energy field laborers are harmed
There are many different ways that energy extraction workers can be seriously hurt, including:
- Collapses – Digging around a wellhead in a cellar is a hazardous activity. Workers are often injured when the excavation caves. Other types of collapses also cause catastrophic and fatal injuries, including platform failures and falling rigs.
- Explosions and fires — Flammable gasses, improper venting high-pressure wells or unsafe electrical practices, among other hazards, can cause explosions and fires in drilling and extraction sites.
- Equipment Failures and Strikes — Derricks are heavily dependent on heavy vehicles and equipment. Defective or poorly maintained machinery can trigger an incident that leaves one or more people injured. Vehicle accidents and injuries from dropped equipment are common in energy fields due to the busy activity.
- Falling from High Locations — Ed Allred, who has represented clients in cases involving falls from high-rise buildings, energy field platforms and other locations, is well versed on how accidents happen and how they can be prevented.
- Toxic exposure — Cellars and other confined spaces can quickly fill with hydrogen sulfide, carbon monoxide or other hazardous substances. Even a few minutes of exposure could force someone to seek immediate medical treatment. In worst-case scenarios, toxic vapors can be fatal.
You have rights regardless of your job duties or length of service. Our firm will provide a free consultation to learn more about your options. Your employer may not inform you of the money that you are entitled to receive to cover medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages related to your accident. No upfront costs. You will only be paid after we have recovered your financial loss.
Injuries frequently suffered by energy field workers
Obtaining compensation for an oil or gas field injury requires a thorough presentation of medical evidence and possible expert testimony. Medical conditions at issue in these cases include:
- Broken and fractured bones
- Thermal and chemical burns
- Traumatic brain injury
- Diseases caused by toxic substances
- Internal injuries
- Muscle, tendon and ligament tears
- Paralysis and other effects of spinal cord damage
In cases where an accident in an energy field or on an offshore rig was fatal, our firm represents bereaved family members and estates in wrongful death actions.

Texas Truck Accident Attorney Pursues Justice for Victims
Experienced lawyer assists people hurt in crashes involving 18-wheelers and other rigs
When they are not operated correctly, large trucks and other commercial vehicles can pose a serious danger to those on the road. The weight and force of a big rig can cause devastating injuries, even at low speeds. That’s why there are special rules for commercial vehicles and why their drivers must obtain a special license. At Allred Law Firm in Texas, we know how to handle these cases so that Texas truck accident victims can get the compensation they deserve from negligent drivers, trucking companies, contractors and other liable parties. Drawing on more than 25 years of experience successfully litigating a wide range of legal matters, attorney Ed Allred is determined to help injured clients secure the payment they need to support themselves and their families.
Firm handles cases stemming from commercial vehicle collisions
A jackknifed truck, rollover accident, T-Bone, or rear-end collision could change the victim’s entire life in an instant. The lawyer you choose can make the difference between receiving fair compensation for your injuries and struggling financially to pay your bills. Our attorneys use their detailed knowledge of the truck accident to represent CDL-holders as well as those who have been struck by an 18-wheeler.
Types of compensation you can receive if you’ve been hurt in a truck crash
Texas law allows victims of truck accidents to collect damages in the following ways:
- Medical bills and Rehabilitation expenses reimbursed
- You can get your wages and any other income that you would have earned but for the injury.
- Pain and suffering damages to address your physical and emotional discomfort
- Compensation for scarring, bodily disfigurement and other lasting effects of the accident
- You can get compensation for your loss of enjoyment of life due to the crash
Texas’s statute of limitations is two years. However, you should call our firm immediately instead of waiting to take the first step. As time goes by, key evidence and witnesses get harder to locate. You can get started right away without paying anything up front, because you will only be billed as a percentage of any payment you receive from defendants at the conclusion of your case.
Parties who may be responsible for a truck accident claim
Most passenger vehicles are driven by their owner or a member of the owner’s family. It is therefore easy to determine who is responsible for a collision. A collision involving a truck could involve many parties. A driver for Amazon, UPS or FedEx, or any other company, may not be aware that their truck’s brakes have worn out, or the steering system is defective. In other cases, employers or contracting businesses might cause an 18-wheeler to be overloaded or force a driver to stay on the road for extended hours without a rest in order to make a delivery on time. Attorney Ed Allred has handled complex cases for decades and will take action against all of the potentially liable defendants.
