Firm Overview

At the law firm of Bristol & Dubiel LLP, our clients receive thorough, vigorous, ethical, and professional legal representation in all areas of personal injury law. We believe our clients are entitled to no less. Our representation relies on three important bases:

• A thorough knowledge of the law,
• The ability to use that knowledge to our clients' benefit, and
• Real trial experience; we will not shy away from taking a legal battle to the courtroom, if necessary.

Bristol & Dubiel LLP is a personal injury law firm serving clients throughout North Texas and the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex.  We represent clients who have suffered serious personal injury as the result of the negligence of another. We have significant experience representing victims of car, truck and motorcycle accidents as well as pedestrians and bicyclists injured as the result of the negligence of another party. We also have experience prosecuting uninsured and underinsured motorist claims in those cases where our clients injuries are significant, but the insurance coverage available through the opposing party is limited.

In addition to handling the types of claims described above, we have experience representing victims of drunk driving accidents, head injuries, assaults, death of a loved one as well as those who have suffered injury as the result of the negligent maintenance, operation or design of a property. If your claim involves serious personal injury resulting from the conduct of another, we have the experience necessary to evaluate your claim, guide you through the claims process, and if necessary litigate the claim on your behalf.

Although our personal injury attorneys are experienced trial lawyers, we realize that a courtroom battle is not always in our clients’ best interest Because our clients’ needs always come first, we work with our clients to find the best legal strategy to meet their objectives, including settling the case  without a lawsuit or trial

Dallas Personal Injury Mediation, Negotiation and Litigation

When it is appropriate, our lawyers encourage clients to consider alternative dispute resolution (ADR) methods for resolving their disputes. ADR can include negotiation or mediation. In many cases, we find that one of these methods will help the parties reach an agreement quickly and cost-effectively. If an agreement cannot be reached and litigation is necessary, our attorneys will fight aggressively to get our client the best result possible.

Litigation involves the filing of a lawsuit against the defendant for the personal injuries suffered by the plaintiff. The lawsuit may seek compensation for the medical expenses, pain and suffering, disability, disfigurement and the wages lost by the plaintiff. The litigation of a personal injury claim often involves answering written interrogatories, conducting depositions of the parties, witnesses and doctors, the involvement of experts and if necessary, a jury trial.  A personal injury claim may be resolved by way of settlement or through ADR  even after a lawsuit has been filed.  Therefore, Alternative Dispute Resolution is used before and after a lawsuit is filed  and involves a mediator attempting to facilitate a settlement or in the case of arbitration, the hearing of evidence and ruling on the right to compensation. ADR  is typically less expensive than litigation and often times resolves a claim more quickly.

Given the intricacies involved in the handling of a serious personal injury claim, it is imperative that a victim of personal injury consult with an experienced personal injury attorney to assess their claim.
A good attorney-client relationship is one that is based upon respect, trust, and mutual confidence. Clear, open, and frequent communication is essential for clients to understand their legal matters and the services their attorney is providing. At Bristol & Dubiel LLP, we take care to understand our clients' needs and goals and then we tailor our services to meet those goals.

We know that our clients expect the highest quality legal services from us. We strive to exceed expectations.

What does a free case evaluation at your firm involve?

Our firm offers a free case evaluation either by phone or in person. The case evaluation involves a review of the circumstances surrounding the accident, the injury suffered and the likelihood of success. This typically includes an interview with the potential client, and if necessary a review of the applicable medical record and documentation such as the Accident Report. The case evaluation provides the information necessary for the prospective client to assess whether they need a lawyer and to address the manner in which our firm may be of assistance.
