Straight answers. No billable hours.

Nothing. Every initial case review with Nguyen & Associates is free and confidential. There's no obligation to hire us.

Contingency. We take a pre-agreed percentage of your recovery — and only if we win or settle your case. No recovery, no fee. Percentages are disclosed in the written engagement letter.

Two years from the date of the injury, for most cases, under Texas Civil Practice & Remedies Code §16.003. Wrongful death claims also have a two-year statute. Some exceptions exist — for minors, for government defendants, for cases involving discovery of latent injuries — but the safe assumption is two years.

Texas follows a modified comparative negligence rule with a 51% bar. If you were 50% or less at fault, you can still recover — your damages are reduced by your percentage of fault. If you were 51% or more at fault, you cannot recover.

Most of our cases settle without a trial. But we prepare every case as if it will go to trial — because that's how insurance companies know we mean it. Cases that do go to trial are the ones where the insurer refuses to pay fair value.

It means we advance all case costs — filing fees, expert witnesses, medical records, depositions — and only get paid if we win or settle. If we lose, we absorb the costs. You don't owe attorney fees or case expenses.

Simple cases with clear liability and minor injuries often resolve in 3–6 months. Average cases run 6–18 months. Catastrophic-injury and commercial trucking cases can take 18–36 months because they require time to reach maximum medical improvement and to develop full damages.

Not without talking to us first. Insurance adjusters record calls and look for anything they can use to minimize your claim. We handle all communication on your behalf once you hire us.

You have the right to change attorneys. We review many cases where a client isn't getting the attention or results they expected. Call us for a second opinion — it's free, and we'll tell you honestly whether a change makes sense.

Yes, across Texas. Our office is in Houston but we represent clients throughout Harris County and the state, including in state and federal court.

It depends. Uninsured-motorist coverage on your own policy often fills the gap. We also investigate other defendants (employers, property owners, third parties) who may be liable and have coverage. Call us — we'll tell you what's available.

Yes. Texas courts have consistently held that immigration status does not bar a personal injury claim. Your ability to recover is not affected.
