Resources
A judge or magistrate sets bail to secure a return to court. The common ways to be released are:
Get medical care, photograph the scene and request your Peace Officer's Crash Report (form CR3) through TxDOT. Texas generally allows two years from the date of injury to file a personal injury lawsuit (Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code §16.003).
Texas follows a modified comparative fault rule. You can still recover as long as you are not more than 50 percent responsible, and your recovery is reduced by your share of fault (Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code Chapter 33).

Questions
Do not see your question? Send it with your case review request and we will answer it.
No. There is no charge to you for our referral. Criminal defense fees vary by attorney and charge, and the attorney will explain them before you hire them. Most personal injury attorneys work on a contingency fee, meaning they are paid a percentage of what they recover and nothing if they do not recover.
No. Houston Lawyer Help is a referral service. We do not give legal advice and we do not represent anyone. We connect you with independent attorneys licensed in Texas who make their own decisions about your case.
Yes. Many requests come from a parent, spouse or friend. Include the person's full name, the county and the charge if you know it, and mark that they are in custody so we can prioritize the request.
Online requests let us collect the details an attorney needs, such as the charge, the county and custody status, so your request reaches the right attorney faster. The attorney will call or text you directly.
For most personal injury cases, Texas allows two years from the date of injury to file a lawsuit. Claims against a government entity can require written notice within months, so it helps to act quickly.
You have the right to decline police questioning and ask for a lawyer. After a wreck, you do not have to give the other driver's insurer a recorded statement. In both situations, speak with an attorney first.
