Personal Injury Cases We Take in Mercedes
When accidents happen, Texas liability law allows the injured party to seek compensation through an injury claim or lawsuit. While this legal process is important, it is also complicated and not designed to make it easy for a plaintiff (the injured party) to hold the defendant (the liable party) responsible for their damaging mistakes. If you were in an accident that wasn’t your fault, allow our Mercedes personal injury lawyers to take the lead and represent you from the beginning of your case to the end.
We primarily focus on a handful of personal injury claims, such as:
- Car accidents: We can work on car accident cases involving drunk drivers, distracted drivers, reckless drivers, and more.
- Truck accidents: Talk to us today if you were hit by a commercial truck. With our resources and experience, we can file claims against large trucking companies.
- Slip and fall accidents: If you slipped and fell on someone else’s property, resulting in your serious injury, you might be able to file a premises liability claim against the property owner or manager.
- Wrongful death: After a loved one passes away in an accident, you should focus on grieving with your loved ones. Leave the legal process of pursuing compensation and justice up to our wrongful death attorneys.
If your personal injury claim is successful, it could recover a variety of damages for you. The average personal injury claim in Texas includes past and future medical treatment costs, past and future lost wages, and damages related to pain and suffering. Whether your case can be resolved through a settlement negotiation or must go to court, we can help.

Regardless of the severity of the charge you are facing – such as a misdemeanor or a felony charge – you should explore the ways you can defend yourself with our representation.
Our criminal defense trial attorneys often handle cases involving:
- DUI/DWI: Would losing your driver’s license disrupt your life in more ways than one, like job loss, child custody complications, and so on? Fight to keep driving privileges after a DUI or DWI arrest by teaming up with us.
- Assaults: Violent crimes are fiercely prosecuted in Texas, and the penalties are life-changing. If you are accused of assault, battery, or another violent crime, start preparing your defense by putting us in charge of it.

Don’t risk your future by not taking your criminal defense case seriously. If you are convicted of a crime, you could be put behind bars for years, pay thousands of dollars in fines and fees, lose professional licenses and certifications, suffer irreversible reputation loss among your peers and community members, and more. Fight for an optimal outcome by letting us defend you.

Mr. Pecina took care of me & my family. He treated us like we were a part of his family. I cannot stress how many different attorneys we spoke to who gave us a runaround & collected our money. Mr. Pecina was the only reasonable & honest attorney we encountered. He explained everything thoroughly & efficiently both in English & Spanish. It is difficult to find a bilingual law firm that is willing to work with & help out the little guy. Ried Pecina Trial Lawyers is it. I cannot recommend this firm & its team enough. I will have Mr. Pecina do all of my legal work from now on & in the future. Thank you Sir for all of your help.
