El Paso Personal Injury Lawyer — No Attorney's Fee Unless We Recover
Contingency-fee representation for people hurt in El Paso crashes, falls and dog attacks. We deal with the insurance company so you can focus on healing.
Last reviewed by Robert Andrew Navar, Esq. · State Bar of Texas
A serious injury in El Paso rarely stays a medical problem for long. Within days you are fielding calls from an insurance adjuster, wondering who pays the emergency room bill at UMC or Del Sol, and losing wages you cannot afford to lose. The Law Office of Robert Navar represents injured people across El Paso County — car and truck crashes on I-10, Loop 375 and Zaragoza, motorcycle wrecks, slip and fall injuries at stores and apartment complexes, dog bites, and wrongful death claims for grieving families. Every injury case is handled on a contingency fee: you pay nothing upfront and no attorney's fee unless we recover money for you, although you may be responsible for case expenses.
Texas law gives you real rights but also real deadlines. Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code section 16.003 sets a two-year statute of limitations for most injury and wrongful death claims, and Chapter 33 reduces your recovery by your share of fault and bars it entirely at 51 percent. Insurers know these rules and use them. Most personal injury claims in El Paso settle directly with the insurance company before any lawsuit is filed, which means the typical client never sees a courtroom. If an insurer refuses to make a fair offer, we file suit in El Paso County and prepare the case as if it will be tried — but that decision is always yours, made with a clear explanation of what it involves.

Common questions
How much does a personal injury lawyer cost in El Paso?
Injury cases at the Law Office of Robert Navar are handled on a contingency fee. You pay nothing to hire us and nothing while the case is pending. Our fee is a percentage of the recovery, agreed in writing before we start, and case expenses are explained upfront. If there is no recovery, you owe no attorney fee. The only exception is property-damage-only claims, which can also be handled for a flat fee.
Will I have to go to court for my injury claim?
Usually not. The large majority of El Paso injury claims settle with the insurance company through a demand and negotiation, with no lawsuit and no court date. We file suit only when the insurer refuses a fair offer, and even then most cases resolve at mediation before trial. If a lawsuit becomes necessary, we explain every step and you decide whether to proceed.
How long do I have to file an injury claim in Texas?
Under Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code section 16.003, most personal injury and wrongful death lawsuits must be filed within two years of the injury or death. Claims against a city, county or the State of Texas require written notice much sooner, sometimes within six months or less under the Texas Tort Claims Act. Evidence like video and witness memories fades fast, so call as early as you can.
