Know the Warning Signs
Did They Contact You First?
After an accident, be cautious if someone you did not contact suddenly reaches out about your injury or legal claim.
1
Unexpected Calls or Texts
Someone contacts you about your accident even though you never asked them for help.
2
A Lawyer or “Runner”
A person recommends a specific lawyer or law firm immediately after your accident.
3
Pressure to Sign
You are pressured to hire a lawyer, sign paperwork, or make a quick decision.
4
Promises of Money
Someone promises money, benefits, or a guaranteed result if you hire a particular lawyer.
These are potential warning signs of illegal lawyer solicitation. Every situation is different, and whether conduct violates Texas law depends on the specific facts.
