Diversity

Like most other small businesses, personal injury law firms start when a few like-minded persons decide to pool their resources together for a common goal. Sadly, “like-minded” can often mean a similar background. So, many legal teams come from the same geographic area and/or the same law school.

The founding members of Williams Hart & Boundas were like-minded individuals as well. But our founders shared a passion for helping accident victims get their lives back and protecting their rights. We have fostered a culture of diversity here at Williams Hart & Boundas. Our attorneys and staff are all from various backgrounds and specialties. It is this diversity that allows our legal team to perform their jobs with perspective and experience. 

Analytical Ability

One mark of a good attorney is the ability to examine the facts of an accident, ask the right questions, and develop a strong theory of the case. This vision sustains us as we work on your case. We keep our eyes on the prize. Generally, personal injury cases involve one of three theories:

• Ordinary Negligence: Negligence is essentially a lack of ordinary care. If the defendant’s conduct dipped below this standard, the defendant is legally responsible for damages. The nature of the duty typically depends on the nature of the relationship between the plaintiff and defendant. The closer the relationship, the higher the duty.
• Negligence Per Se: Texas has a variety of safety laws, and these laws generally establish a standard of care. Therefore, defendants who violate these safety laws could be responsible for damages as a matter of law. Counties, municipalities, and neighborhood associations often have their own sets of safety laws.
• Defective Product: Dangerous drugs and other such claims affect so many people that negligence alone is not an adequate safeguard. So, companies who sell defective products are generally liable for damages as a matter of law. Plaintiffs need only establish a relationship between the product and the injury.

The best Houston negligence lawyers do more than break down your claim for damages. They effectively communicate available legal options to their clients. That includes the pros and the cons.

Experience

This trait is often critical, but it’s sometimes overblown or not understood. Sometimes, experience leads to an “I’ve always done it this way” attitude. Other times, years of experience are misleading. Many attorneys work diligently for their entire careers and seldom enter a courthouse.

At Williams Hart & Boundas, our experienced attorneys know all evidentiary and procedural rules. That includes the unwritten rules. Our experts are also flexible. If a new approach produces results, we usually embrace it. And our experts have substantial trial experience. We know what it takes to go to the mat for our clients. This attitude often helps us obtain favorable out-of-court settlements.

Results

As they say, the proof of the pudding is in the eating. Experience, commitment, and other qualities are important. But unless these qualities produce results, they do not do accident victims any good.

Over the years, we have obtained hundreds of millions of dollars for over 100,000 clients. These awards are more than just trophies on a shelf or statistics on a spreadsheet. They represent lives changed for the better. Accident victims often struggle with long-term medical bills, not to mention intense pain and suffering. The compensation our Houston personal injury attorneys obtain makes it easier for these people to carry on with their lives.
