Once I meet with you, what are we going to try to do? How long is it going to take?<\/p>\n<p><b>Stephen Boutros: <\/b>That varies from case to case. I don&#8217;t attempt to resolve a case until our clients have reached what I call maximum medical improvement. That means that they&#8217;ve either fully recovered, or they&#8217;ve gotten as good as they&#8217;re going to get. Once I know that then we can accurately evaluate the case based on the past damages, and the future damages. I collect all the medical records, all the medical bills. Narrative reports from medical doctors, information pertaining to lost wages, and loss of earning capacity in the past and future. Then I sit down with the clients, and formulate an evaluation of what the case is worth, and attempt to get the case settled. If I am able to settle the case that&#8217;s great, if not then I file a lawsuit and prepare the case for trial.<\/p>\n<p><b>Timeframe of Resolution for a Motorcycle Accident Case<\/b><\/p>\n    <div id=\"author-info\" class=\" well clearfix\">\n        <div class=\"author-image\">\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/www.boutroslaw.com\/stephen-boutros\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">\n                               <img alt=\"Stephen Boutros, Esq.\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Byline-Image-Stephen-Boutros.png\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Byline-Image-Stephen-Boutros.png\" class=\"avatar avatar-90 photo\" height=\"90\" width=\"90\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\">\n            <\/a>\n        <\/div> \n        <div class=\"author-bio\">\n                <p><b>Stephen Boutros<\/b>\u00a0has dedicated over 27 years to advocating for the rights of victims.

Obviously Texas has a two year statute of limitations. That means that if you don&#8217;t file a lawsuit within two years of the date that the incident occurred, then you forever lose your right to file that lawsuit.<\/p>\n<p><b>Mature, Experienced Drivers Are Less Likely To be Involved in Accidents<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Interviewer: <\/b>Is there a difference between age groups and motorcycle drivers, and their habits and they&#8217;re prone to get in accidents?<\/p>\n<p><b>Stephen Boutros: <\/b>I think that the answers obvious. Usually more mature experienced drivers are safer, but sometimes you hear motorcycle drivers that say, &#8220;I never expect to be in an accident, because I&#8217;m a very defensive driver,&#8221; but quite frankly, if you&#8217;re stopped at a red light, there&#8217;s nothing you can do to prevent someone from rear ending you on a motorcycle. Certain motorcycle accidents are not preventable by the rider. You can be the most safe motorcycle operator or driver on the planet, and you&#8217;re still subject to being in a motorcycle accident through no fault of your own. Again, just the nature of the vehicle, your body is not protected and injuries are often extremely severe.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Interviewer: What&#8217;s the process going to be like?
