Hillsboro, TX Motor Vehicle Accident Attorney: The Manginello Law Firm / Attorney 911
If you or a loved one has been injured in a crash on the I-35 corridor through Hillsboro, you aren’t just a claim number to an insurance company. You’re a liability to be minimized. Whether it was a high-speed collision near the Hill County outlets or a rear-end fender bender on North Abbott, the seconds following the impact set a legal clock in motion. Since 1998, Ralph Manginello and our team at Attorney 911 have stood as a shield for Hillsboro families against the aggressive tactics of multi-billion-dollar insurance carriers. With over 27 years of trial experience and admission to the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas, our managing partner has recovered millions for the victims of catastrophic accidents.
In Hillsboro and across Hill County, the road feels familiar until it isn’t. When an 80,000-pound commercial truck fails to slow down for a traffic backup where I-35E and I-35W merge north of the city, the results are life-altering. You need more than just a lawyer; you need an insider who knows the other side’s playbook. That is why our firm includes Lupe Peña, a former insurance defense attorney. Lupe used to work for the same carriers that are now trying to lowball your claim. He knows exactly how they calculate their offers and how they look for any excuse to deny your case. Now, he uses that “switched-sides” knowledge to fight for you. If you are hurting, confused, or being pressured by an adjuster to sign a release, call us 24/7 at 1-888-ATTY-911.
The Hard Reality of Crashes in Hillsboro and Hill County
Hillsboro sits at a critical junction in the Texas transportation network. Because we sit at the gateway between North Texas and Central Texas, our local roads—especially Interstate 35, US-77, and State Highway 22—see a disproportionate volume of heavy commercial traffic. According to recent TxDOT district data, the I-35 corridor through Hill County remains one of the most dangerous stretches of highway in the region for high-speed rear-end collisions and commercial vehicle rollovers.
When a major accident occurs in Hillsboro, victims are typically transported to Hill Regional Hospital or, in catastrophic cases, air-lifted to Level I trauma centers like Baylor Scott & White Medical Center – Hillcrest in Waco or Methodist Dallas Medical Center. Our firm has spent over two decades coordinating with these medical systems. We understand the urgency of retrieving trauma records and establishing the biomechanical link between the collision and your injuries. Ralph Manginello has handled cases ranging from soft-tissue whiplash to traumatic brain injuries (TBI) and wrongful death, with past result ranges for TBI settlements typically falling between $1.5 million and $9.8 million. While every case is unique and past results do not guarantee future outcomes, this track record demonstrates the firepower we bring to the Hill County District Court.
Why Hill County Families Trust Attorney 911
In a small-knit community like Hillsboro, your reputation is everything. We aren’t a high-volume “settlement mill” that takes the first offer an adjuster throws across the desk. We are trial lawyers. As one of our clients, Chad Harris, put it: “You are NOT just some client that’s caught in the middle of many other cases. You are FAMILY to them and they protect and fight for you as such.”
We’ve gone toe-to-toe with the world’s largest corporations, including litigation experience against BP and other Fortune 500 entities. Our firm brings a level of technical sophistication—using accident reconstructionists, biomechanical engineers, and vocational experts—that most local general-practice firms simply cannot match. If the insurance company knows your lawyer is afraid of the courtroom, they will never offer full value. When they see Ralph Manginello and Lupe Peña on the other side, they know they are facing 27+ years of experience and a former insider who knows their secrets.
The Six-Mechanism Delayed-Pain Framework in Hillsboro MVA Cases
One of the most dangerous mistakes victims make after a Hillsboro fender bender is telling the officer or the adjuster, “I’m fine.” In the moments after a crash on a road like Old Brandon Road or Highway 81, your body is flooded with adrenaline. This “fight or flight” response is a biological mask that can hide serious trauma for hours or even days.
- The Adrenaline Ebb (0–4 Hours): As your sympathetic nervous system settles, the micro-tears in your ligaments and the compression in your spine begin to manifest.
- The Inflammatory Peak (24–72 Hours): This is the window where most Hillsboro victims realize they aren’t “fine.” Inflammation in the cervical spine can lead to restricted range of motion and radiating pain.
- Cervical Acceleration-Deceleration (CAD): Even at impacts as low as 15 mph, the 4.5G cervical-injury threshold is often exceeded. We use the Quebec Task Force WAD I-IV grading to document these injuries objectively for Hill County juries.
- Coup-Contrecoup Brain Trauma: Your head doesn’t have to strike the steering wheel to suffer a brain injury. The rotational force of a highway-speed impact can cause the brain to strike the inside of the skull, leading to mTBI or persistent post-concussive syndrome.
- Dermatomal Pattern Recognition: If you have numbness in your thumb or index finger, it may indicate a C5-C6 disc herniation. If it’s your middle finger, it could be C6-C7. We don’t just listen to your pain; we map it to the underlying spinal anatomy.
- The Chronic Transition: If soft-tissue injuries aren’t treated within the first 14 days, they can transition into chronic pain syndromes. The insurance carrier wants you to wait so they can argue your pain is “pre-existing” or unrelated to the crash. Don’t give them that opening.
If you are feeling the “delayed-onset” of a Hillsboro crash, contact us immediately at 1-888-ATTY-911.
Hillsboro Impact Subtypes and Liability Realities
The High-Speed I-35 Rear-End
Interstate 35 through Hillsboro is a “stop-and-go” zone, especially during peak travel times or when agricultural equipment enters the flow. Under Tex. Transp. Code § 545.062, every driver has a duty to maintain an “assured clear distance.” When a commercial truck or a distracted driver rear-ends you at the split near Carl’s Corner, there is a legal presumption of negligence. However, carriers often try to rebut this by claiming a “sudden emergency.” Lupe Peña has seen this defense used hundreds of times from the carrier side; he knows how to dismantle it by proving the defendant’s speed was unreasonable for Hill County traffic conditions.
Intersection Crashes near Historic Downtown Hillsboro
Failures to yield at stop signs or red lights near the courthouse or the Hill County Outlet mall often lead to T-bone impacts. These are some of the most dangerous crashes because passenger vehicles have very little structural protection on the side. We immediately send preservation letters to businesses near the intersection to lock down surveillance footage, which is often overwritten within 7 to 30 days.
Parking Lot Accidents and Private Property
Fender benders in the parking lots of Brookshire’s, Walmart, or the Hillsboro outlets are frequently dismissed as “minor.” But a low-speed backing accident can still cause a disc extrusion. Most people don’t realize that Texas law regarding negligence still applies on private property. We know how to navigate the complex world of parking lot surveillance and witness statements to prove fault even when a police officer refuses to write a formal CR-3 crash report.
The Legal Framework: How Texas Law Protects Hillsboro Victims
Navigating the Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code on your own is like trying to navigate the Hill County backroads without a map in a storm. You might find your way, but the risk of a wrong turn is high.
The 2-Year Deadline (§ 16.003)
Under Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code § 16.003, you generally have two years from the date of the crash to file a lawsuit in Hillsboro. If you miss this deadline, your right to recover is almost certainly gone forever. For cases involving the City of Hillsboro or Hill County vehicles, the Texas Tort Claims Act applies, which may require a formal notice of claim in as little as six months.
Modified Comparative Fault (§ 33.001)
Texas follows the “51% Bar” rule. Under Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code § 33.001, you can recover damages as long as you are 50% or less at fault. If a Hill County jury finds you 51% responsible, you get $0. Insurance adjusters know this, so their first goal is always to find a reason to blame you. This is why you should never give a recorded statement to the other driver’s insurance company without your lawyer present.
The Paid-or-Incurred Rule (§ 41.0105)
This is one of the most frustrating parts of Texas law. Known as the Haygood rule, Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code § 41.0105 limits your recovery for medical expenses to the amount actually paid by your insurance, not the amount billed by the hospital. If you don’t have health insurance, this rule can be weaponized against you. We work with providers in the Hillsboro area who understand the complexities of “Letter of Protection” (LOP) care to ensure your medical evidence is protected and your damages are maximized.
18-Wheeler and Commercial Vehicle Crashes on I-35
An accident with a commercial truck isn’t just a “big car wreck.” It’s an FMCSA federal regulatory battle. If you were hit by a tractor-trailer near the Hillsboro rest stops, the trucking company likely has a rapid-response team at the scene before the vehicles are even towed.
We counter their aggression with federal authority. We look for violations of:
- 49 CFR § 395: Hours of Service (HOS) violations. Was the driver fatigued?
- 49 CFR § 382: Drug and alcohol testing. Was the driver impaired?
- 49 CFR § 396: Maintenance records. Were the brakes or tires neglected?
Ralph Manginello and our team send out “spoliation letters” within 7 days of being retained. This legal notice prevents the trucking company from destroying Electronic Logging Device (ELD) data, which under federal law (49 CFR § 395.8(k)) they are only required to keep for 6 months—though many find excuses to delete it much sooner.
The Stowers Doctrine: Forcing the Carrier to Pay
Many drivers in Hill County carry only the Texas minimum 30/60/25 liability policy. If your medical bills are $100,000 and the other driver has a $30,000 policy, you are in a “limits” crisis. However, because of the Stowers v. American Indemnity Co. doctrine (1929), we have a powerful tool. If we send the insurance company a “Stowers Demand” and they unreasonably refuse to settle for the policy limits, they may become liable for the entire amount of the verdict at trial—even if it’s ten times their policy limit. This is the ultimate “hammer” in Texas personal injury law, and we are not afraid to use it.
Hillsboro Multi-Pathway Compensation: Finding Every Dollar
Most “billboard lawyers” look at one policy and stop. We look for every possible pathway for our Hillsboro clients:
- Liability Coverage: The at-fault driver’s policy.
- UM/UIM (Uninsured/Underinsured): Your own policy, which protects you if the other driver was irresponsible and had no insurance.
- PIP (Personal Injury Protection): No-fault medical and wage coverage on your own policy.
- Dram Shop (TABC § 2.02): If a Hillsboro bar or restaurant over-served a drunk driver, the establishment may be liable under Tex. Alc. Bev. Code § 2.02.
- Corporate Fleet Liability: When an employee of an Hillsboro-based company is at fault.
Money Math: What is a Hillsboro Crash Case Worth?
When we calculate your case value, we use concrete arithmetic, not guesswork.
- Economic Damages: Medical bills (paid-or-incurred), property damage, lost wages, and loss of future earning capacity.
- Non-Economic Damages: Pain and suffering, mental anguish, and physical impairment.
- Worked Example: Imagine you have $40,000 in medicals and $10,000 in lost wages. If we apply a standard multiplier of 3x for pain and suffering depending on injury severity, your compensatory damages would be $150,000. If the defendant was grossly negligent (e.g., street racing on State Highway 22), punitive damages under Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code § 41.008 could add significantly to that total.
Wait—before you accept any check from an adjuster, ask yourself: Did they include my future medical needs? Did they account for the diminished value of my truck? If the answer is “no,” you are being lowballed. Ernest Cano, another one of our clients, noted: “Mr. Manginello and his firm are first class. Will fight tooth and nail for you.” We don’t take “no” for an answer when Hill County families are suffering.
“No Fee Unless We Win” — Our Hillsboro Commitment
We know that a car accident can destroy a family’s savings. That is why we work on a contingency fee basis. You pay nothing out of pocket. We advance all investigation costs—reconstructionists, medical record fees, and court filings. If we do not recover money for you, you owe us absolutely zero. Our standard fee is 33⅓% pre-trial and 40% if the case proceeds to trial. Our goal is to make high-level, federal-court-admitted representation accessible to every worker and parent in Hill County.
Frequently Asked Questions (Hillsboro, TX)
1. How does the 18% prompt-pay interest under Tex. Ins. Code § 542.060 work for a Hillsboro driver?
If your own insurance company (like for a PIP or UM/UIM claim) delays paying a valid claim beyond the statutory deadlines, they don’t just owe you the claim amount. They owe you an additional 18% per-annum interest and your attorney’s fees. On a $50,000 claim delayed one year, that interest alone is $9,000. This is the law’s way of punishing insurance companies for stalling.
2. What is the “Brainard Rule” and does it affect my Hillsboro UIM claim?
Under Brainard v. Trinity Universal Ins. Co. (2006), your UIM carrier doesn’t have to pay until you have “fixed” the liability of the other driver. This often means you have to litigate against the other driver first. It can delay your check by 18-24 months if your lawyer doesn’t know how to move the case quickly through the Hill County court system.
3. The insurance company said they have a “MIST” program. What is that?
MIST stands for “Minor Impact Soft Tissue.” It is a McKinsey-designed protocol (used by Allstate as CCPR and State Farm as ACE) to automatically flag any case with low vehicle damage for denial. They hope to convince you that because your car isn’t crushed, you aren’t hurt. Lupe Peña has worked with these protocols from the inside—he knows the biomechanical science that proves how small impacts cause major spine injuries.
4. Can a Hillsboro hospital like Hill Regional take my whole settlement?
Under Tex. Prop. Code § 55.002, a hospital has a lien on your recovery if you were admitted within 72 hours of the crash. However, these liens are often improperly filed or for unreasonable amounts. We routinely negotiate these liens down by 30% to 60% or more, putting more of the settlement money into your pocket where it belongs.
5. I was hit by a drunk driver who was over-served at a Hillsboro restaurant. Can I sue the restaurant?
Yes. Under the Texas Dram Shop Act TABC § 2.02, if the establishment served an adult who was “obviously intoxicated to the extent he presented a clear danger,” the bar is responsible. This is a critical second pathway for compensation when the drunk driver has no assets.
6. I’m a Spanish speaker in Hillsboro and I’m worried about my status. Can I still sue?
Yes. Texas tort law does not care about your immigration status. If someone was negligent and hurt you, you have a right to be compensated. Lupe Peña is native-fluent in Spanish; we handle all our Spanish-language cases directly with no interpreters required. Your status is not a barrier to justice in our firm.
7. How long do I have to file a claim in Texas?
Generally, two years under Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code § 16.003. However, if you were hit by a government vehicle (City of Hillsboro, Hill County, TxDOT), you must provide formal notice of claim—often within six months. If you miss that window, your case is likely dead before it starts.

Si usted o un ser querido ha resultado herido en un accidente en el corredor de la I-35 a su paso por Hillsboro, usted no es solo un número de reclamo para una compañía de seguros. Usted es una responsabilidad que debe ser minimizada. Ya sea un choque a alta velocidad cerca de los outlets del Condado de Hill o un choque por detrás en North Abbott, los segundos que siguen al impacto ponen en marcha un reloj legal. Desde 1998, Ralph Manginello y nuestro equipo en Attorney 911 han servido como escudo para las familias de Hillsboro contra las tácticas agresivas de las aseguradoras multimillonarias. Con más de 27 años de experiencia en juicios y admisión en la Corte de Distrito de los EE.

En Hillsboro y en todo el Condado de Hill, la carretera se siente familiar hasta que deja de serlo. Cuando un camión comercial de 80,000 libras no frena ante un atasco de tráfico donde la I-35E y la I-35W se unen al norte de la ciudad, los resultados alteran la vida. Necesita más que un simple abogado; necesita a alguien con información privilegiada que conozca el manual de estrategias del otro lado. Es por eso que nuestra firma incluye a Lupe Peña, un ex abogado de defensa de seguros. Lupe solía trabajar para las mismas compañías que ahora intentan ofrecerle una miseria por su reclamo. Él sabe exactamente cómo calculan sus ofertas y cómo buscan cualquier excusa para negar su caso. Ahora, usa ese conocimiento de “haber cambiado de bando” para luchar por usted. Si tiene dolor, está confundido o se siente presionado por un ajustador para firmar un descargo de responsabilidad, llámenos las 24 horas, los 7 días de la semana al 1-888-ATTY-911.
La Dura Realidad de los Accidentes en Hillsboro y el Condado de Hill
Hillsboro se encuentra en un cruce crítico en la red de transporte de Texas. Debido a que estamos en la puerta de entrada entre el Norte de Texas y el Centro de Texas, nuestras carreteras locales, especialmente la Interestatal 35, la US-77 y la Carretera Estatal 22, ven un volumen desproporcionado de tráfico comercial pesado. Según datos recientes del distrito de TxDOT, el corredor de la I-35 a través del Condado de Hill sigue siendo uno de los tramos de carretera más peligrosos de la región en lo que respecta a choques por detrás a alta velocidad y vuelcos de vehículos comerciales.
Cuando ocurre un accidente grave en Hillsboro, las víctimas suelen ser trasladadas al Hill Regional Hospital o, en casos catastróficos, son transportadas en helicóptero a centros de traumatología de Nivel I como el Baylor Scott & White Medical Center – Hillcrest en Waco o el Methodist Dallas Medical Center. Nuestra firma ha pasado más de dos décadas coordinando con estos sistemas médicos. Entendemos la urgencia de recuperar los registros de traumatología y establecer el vínculo biomecánico entre el choque y sus lesiones. Ralph Manginello ha manejado casos que van desde latigazos cervicales en tejidos blandos hasta lesiones cerebrales traumáticas (TBI) y muerte por negligencia, con rangos de resultados previos para acuerdos de TBI que suelen oscilar entre $1.5 millones y $9.8 millones. Si bien cada caso es único y los resultados pasados no garantizan resultados futuros, este historial demuestra el poder de fuego que aportamos a la Corte de Distrito del Condado de Hill.
Por Qué las Familias del Condado de Hill Confían en Attorney 911
En una comunidad unida como Hillsboro, su reputación lo es todo. No somos una “fábrica de acuerdos” de alto volumen que acepta la primera oferta que un ajustador lanza sobre la mesa. Somos abogados de juicio. Como dijo uno de nuestros clientes, Chad Harris: “Usted NO es solo un cliente más que está atrapado en medio de muchos otros casos. Usted es FAMILIA para ellos y ellos lo protegen y luchan por usted como tal”.
Nos hemos enfrentado a las corporaciones más grandes del mundo, incluyendo experiencia en litigios contra BP y otras entidades de Fortune 500. Nuestra firma aporta un nivel de sofisticación técnica —usando reconstructores de accidentes, ingenieros biomecánicos y expertos vocacionales— que la mayoría de las firmas de práctica general locales simplemente no pueden igualar. Si la compañía de seguros sabe que su abogado tiene miedo a la sala del tribunal, nunca ofrecerán el valor total. Cuando ven a Ralph Manginello y Lupe Peña al otro lado, saben que se enfrentan a más de 27 años de experiencia y a alguien que conoce sus secretos desde adentro.
El Marco de Seis Mecanismos del Dolor Retrasado en Hillsboro
Uno de los errores más peligrosos que cometen las víctimas después de un choque menor en Hillsboro es decirle al oficial o al ajustador: “Estoy bien”. En los momentos posteriores a un choque en una carretera como Old Brandon Road o Highway 81, su cuerpo se inunda de adrenalina. Esta respuesta de “lucha o huida” es una máscara biológica que puede ocultar un trauma grave durante horas o incluso días.
- El Reflujo de la Adrenalina (0 a 4 Horas): A medida que su sistema nervioso simpático se calma, los microdesgarros en sus ligamentos y la compresión en su columna comienzan a manifestarse.
- El Pico Inflamatorio (24 a 72 Horas): Esta es la ventana donde la mayoría de las víctimas en Hillsboro se dan cuenta de que no están “bien”. La inflamación en la columna cervical puede provocar una restricción del rango de movimiento y dolor radiante.
- Aceleración-Deceleración Cervical (CAD): Incluso en impactos tan bajos como 15 mph, a menudo se supera el umbral de lesión cervical de 4.5G. Utilizamos la clasificación Quebec Task Force WAD I-IV para documentar estas lesiones de manera objetiva ante los jurados del Condado de Hill.
- Trauma Cerebral por Golpe y Contragolpe: Su cabeza no tiene que golpear el volante para sufrir una lesión cerebral. La fuerza de rotación de un impacto a velocidad de autopista puede hacer que el cerebro golpee el interior del cráneo, lo que provoca mTBI (lesión cerebral traumática leve) o síndrome posconcusivo persistente.
- Reconocimiento de Patrones Dermatómicos: Si tiene entumecimiento en el pulgar o el dedo índice, puede indicar una hernia de disco C5-C6. Si es el dedo medio, podría ser C6-C7. No solo escuchamos su dolor; lo mapeamos en la anatomía espinal subyacente.
- La Transición Crónica: Si las lesiones de tejidos blandos no se tratan dentro de los primeros 14 días, pueden convertirse en síndromes de dolor crónico. La aseguradora quiere que usted espere para poder argumentar que su dolor es “preexistente” o no está relacionado con el choque. No les dé esa oportunidad.
Si siente la “aparición tardía” del dolor después de un choque en Hillsboro, contáctenos de inmediato al 1-888-ATTY-911.
Marco Legal: Cómo la Ley de Texas Protege a las Víctimas de Hillsboro
El Plazo de 2 Años (Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code § 16.003)
Conforme al Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code § 16.003 (que establece el plazo de prescripción de dos años para reclamos de lesiones personales en Texas, contados desde la fecha del accidente), generalmente usted tiene dos años para presentar una demanda. Si pierde este plazo, su derecho a recuperar casi con seguridad desaparecerá para siempre. Para casos que involucran vehículos de la Ciudad de Hillsboro o del Condado de Hill, se aplica la Ley de Reclamos por Agravios de Texas (Texas Tort Claims Act), que puede requerir una notificación formal de reclamo en tan solo seis meses.
Culpa Comparativa Modificada (Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code § 33.001)
Texas sigue la regla de la “Barrera del 51%”. Según el Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code § 33.001 (referente a la responsabilidad proporcional), usted puede recuperar daños siempre que tenga un 50% o menos de la culpa. Si un jurado del Condado de Hill lo encuentra responsable en un 51%, usted recibe $0.
La Regla de “Pagado o Incurrido” (Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code § 41.0105)
Esta es una de las partes más frustrantes de la ley de Texas. Conocida como la regla Haygood, ella limita su recuperación por gastos médicos a la cantidad realmente pagada por su seguro, no a la cantidad facturada por el hospital. Si no tiene seguro médico, esta regla puede usarse en su contra. Trabajamos con proveedores en el área de Hillsboro que entienden las complejidades de la atención mediante una “Carta de Protección” (LOP) para asegurar que su evidencia médica esté protegida.
Choques de Camiones de 18 Ruedas y Vehículos Comerciales en la I-35
Un accidente con un camión comercial no es solo un “choque de autos grandes”. Es una batalla regulatoria federal de la FMCSA. Si fue golpeado por un tráiler cerca de las paradas de descanso de Hillsboro, es probable que la compañía de camiones tenga un equipo de respuesta rápida en la escena antes de que los vehículos sean remolcados.
Detenemos su agresión con autoridad federal. Buscamos violaciones de:
- 49 CFR § 395: Violaciones de las Horas de Servicio (HOS). ¿Estaba el conductor fatigado?
- 49 CFR § 382: Pruebas de detección de drogas y alcohol.
- 49 CFR § 396: Registros de mantenimiento.
Enviamos cartas de preservación de evidencia dentro de los 7 días posteriores a ser contratados. Este aviso legal evita que la compañía de camiones destruya los datos del Dispositivo de Registro Electrónico (ELD), que según la ley federal (49 CFR § 395.8(k)) solo están obligados a conservar por 6 meses.
“Sin Honorarios a Menos que Ganemos” — Nuestro Compromiso con Hillsboro
Sabemos que un accidente de auto puede destruir los ahorros de una familia. Es por eso que trabajamos con base en honorarios de contingencia. Usted no paga nada de su bolsillo. Adelantamos todos los costos de investigación: reconstructores, honorarios por registros médicos y presentaciones judiciales. Si no recuperamos dinero para usted, no nos debe absolutamente nada. Nuestro objetivo es que la representación de alto nivel, admitida en tribunales federales, sea accesible para todos los trabajadores y padres del Condado de Hill.
Preguntas Frecuentes (Hillsboro, TX)
1. ¿Cómo funciona el interés del 18% por pago puntual según el Tex. Ins. Code § 542.060?
Si su propia compañía de seguros retrasa el pago de un reclamo válido más allá de los plazos legales, le deben un interés anual del 18% sobre el monto no pagado, además de los honorarios razonables de los abogados. Esto castiga a las aseguradoras por tácticas de demora.
2. ¿Puede un hospital de Hillsboro como Hill Regional quedarse con toda mi indemnización?
Conforme al Tex. Prop. Code § 55.002 (sobre el embargo hospitalario por servicios de emergencia), un hospital tiene un derecho de retención sobre su recuperación si fue admitido dentro de las 72 horas del choque. A menudo negociamos estos embargos para reducirlos entre un 30% y un 60%, poniendo más dinero en su bolsillo.
3. Soy hispanohablante en Hillsboro y me preocupa mi estatus migratorio. ¿Puedo demandar?
Sí. La ley de daños de Texas no toma en cuenta su estatus migratorio. Si alguien fue negligente y le hizo daño, usted tiene derecho a ser compensado. Lupe Peña habla español nativo; manejamos todos nuestros casos en español directamente, sin necesidad de intérpretes.
