Our law firm also represents victims of drunk drivers, auto-pedestrian accidents, hit-and-run accidents, bicycle accidents, and other injury claims.
Our advice that you should not negotiate with an insurance company on your own especially applies if you have suffered the wrongful death of a family member because of the negligence of a third party. Under Texas law, a "wrongful death" claim can be brought by a spouse, parent or child for the death of their husband or wife, son or daughter, or mother or father.
Although some accidents are severe, the reality is that most accidents involving motorized vehicles cause minor to moderate injuries. However, we understand that even minor or moderate injuries can cause constant pain because of whiplash or cause the need for surgery. Regardless of the severity of your injuries, know that our Texas personal injury lawyers are here to help you recover money for your medical bills, pain and suffering, and lost wages.

Gordon can give you the answers you need to regain some peace of mind.
- Accidental Death
If you lost a close loved one during a Houston auto accident, Joel A. Gordon & Associates is here to help you. For just over 17 years, we have been handling accident cases in Houston, as well as cases involving accidental death. It is a sad reality that motor vehicle accidents can lead to the unexpected deaths of spouses, children, parents and beloved family members. No one is ever equipped to deal with such a tragic loss. The law recognizes this fact and responds by allowing families of accidental death victims to file a type of personal injury claim known as a wrongful death claim.
- Auto Accidents
Know that if your car accident was caused by third-party negligence you may have the right to file a personal injury claim. Even if you were partially at fault, you may still have the right to take legal action against third parties. Whether you call your incident an auto accident, car wreck, or vehicle collision, and regardless of whether you were rear-ended, broad-sided or hit head-on, as an experienced Houston accident lawyer we will promptly and thoroughly investigate your case to assess damages and determine fault. Once hired, we will work with experienced investigators to obtain photographs, witness statements and other necessary evidence to further your case.
- Auto Pedestrian Accident
At Joel A. Gordon & Associates, one of our missions is to provide information to all of our clients as well as tailored legal representation and solutions. If you have been hit by a car in Houston, there are several things you will need to do to protect yourself physically and financially. After we have heard your side of the story and reviewed all documentation, our Houston car accident attorneys will take the time to educate you regarding your legal rights and then tell you more about your legal options and possibilities. If you decide that you would like to move forward with a personal injury claim against a negligent third-party or an insurance company, our team of litigators will do everything we can to help you get the monetary damages you are more than entitled to.
- Car Accident
If you have plans to advance your car accident claim, Joel A. Gordon & Associates will do everything possible to get you the results you desire. It does not matter if you've been injured by a car, bus, motorcycle, large truck, 18-wheeler or SUV; we have the skills and knowledge to handle your case because we have worked on so many other car accident cases in Houston. If you have been injured by third-party negligence, know without a shadow of a doubt that you are entitled to monetary compensation for your serious losses. Whether you incurred substantial medical bills, suffered serious or permanent injuries, lost money because you had to take time off of work or needed expensive car repairs, we can prepare a strong case that may result in your securing punitive damages, compensatory damages or both.
- Complex Regional Pain Syndrome
Because there is no cure for CRPS, treatment is aimed at relieving painful symptoms so that people can resume their normal lives. The following treatments are often used; physical therapy, psychotherapy, sympathetic nerve block, medications, surgical sympathectomy, spinal cord stimulation, and intrathecal drug pumps. If you have been injured and you believe you have CRPS, or have already been diagnosed with CRPS, then you should meet with a Houston lawyer who has the experience and answers you need to move forward with a personal injury claim. CRPS is a very serious medical condition and you should have a Houston personal injury attorney on your side.
- DePuy Hip Recall
If you believe that you received the ASR XL Acetabular System or the DePuy ASR Hip Resurfacing System, and you are experiencing pain and/or trouble walking, then you should consult with a personal injury attorney who has the experience you need to move forward with protecting your rights and claims. Because we are located in Houston, Texas, we have the ability to partner with other qualified law firms, or possibly work with other qualified law firms on a referral type basis.
- Drunk Driver Victims
Joel A. Gordon & Associates aggressively pursues drunk drivers for all the damages caused to you or your loved one. Innocent victims harmed by drunk drivers are entitled to compensation for their injuries, including but not limited to medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering and mental anguish, physical impairment and disability, and most importantly, punitive damages to deter future conduct. If a death occurred because of a drunk driver, you will want a Houston Drunk Driver Accident Lawyer to bring a wrongful death action against the drunk driver. In addition to representing families with their wrongful death claim, our Houston Lawyers can also assist, on a case-by-case basis, with probate matters and funeral and burial expenses.
- Funeral & Burial Assistance
Suffering the loss of a loved one due to a wrongful death is a traumatic event. This trauma can be compounded by having to cope with unexpected funeral and burial expenses which can cost as much as $10,000. If you cannot afford the funeral and burial expense for the care of your loved one, we can provide assistance with these expenses.
- Personal Injury
After having been involved in a serious accident, it is vital that you hire a Houston personal injury attorney as soon as possible to protect your claim. If you are in need of a personal injury lawyer in Texas, you will find experienced litigators at Joel A. Gordon & Associates. Since 1993, we have handled all types of auto accidents and injury cases. Our prior clients will attest to the great case results we have been able to deliver on their behalf.

- Car Defect Injuries
Whether it was a defective tire which caused a rollover accident, or a defective airbag, pedal, seatbelt or brakes, now is the time to have a conversation with a Houston injury attorney that has experience working on car defect cases. At Joel A. Gordon & Associates, we have had the privilege of working with clients who have been injured by car defects. We have seen how defective car parts can destroy innocent people's lives and adversely impact their quality of living. If you are injured by a car defect, we would like to provide you with a free consultation for your case. With our help, you may be able to recover monetary compensation for your injuries, medical bills, property damage, vehicle repair expenses and pain and suffering.
- Insurance Disability Claim
As indicated, there are many conditions and events which must occur before a claimant may be entitled to insurance disability benefits. Furthermore, even though the claimant’s physicians may render him/her disabled, the physicians hired by the insurance company may have different opinions. When the physicians disagree, it may come down to a battle of the medical experts and lawyers. If you suffered an injury or have a medical condition which rendered you disabled and you would like to consult with a Houston insurance disability attorney who has the experience and answers you need to move forward with an insurance disability claim, let us help you.
- Life Insurance Claim
Although most life insurance claims are paid without any dispute, there are instances which arise that result in the wrongful denial of a life insurance claim by the insurance company. We cannot identify every factor or reason which may result in the denial of a life insurance claim. Additionally, not every life insurance claim denied by the insurance company is improper. If you believe that a life insurance claim has been wrongfully denied, and you would like to consult with a Houston life insurance attorney who has the experience and answers you need to move forward with a life insurance claim, we can help.
- Livestock Accident
The 1876 Texas Constitution permits the Texas Legislature to pass laws for the regulation of livestock. Using its authority, the Texas Legislature provided that Texas counties could pass a local stock law if the residents of the county approved the law in an election. The vast majority of the 254 Texas counties have enacted a local stock law. However, sometimes locating the local stock law is very difficult. If you were operating a motorcycle or automobile on a Texas Farm to Market road (FM road or Farmers Market road) and you collided with a cow, horse, bull, or other regulated animal, then consult our law firm and allow us to verify the existence of a local stock law. Once we have verified a local stock law, we will then explain to you in more detail your legal rights.
- Medical Malpractice
Medical malpractice claims are governed by the Texas Medical Liability and Insurance Improvement Act. Article 4590i of the Act applies to "health care liability claims." A "health care liability claim" is a cause of action, whether in tort or contract, against a health care provider or physician for treatment, lack of treatment, or other departure from accepted standards of medical care, health care, or safety which proximately results in injury or death to the patient.
- Motorcycle Accident
If you are involved in a motorcycle accident in Houston and you suffered damages, whether physical or financial, you may be thinking about filing a personal injury claim. You probably know that before you move forward with your claim, you will need to secure representation from a Houston motorcycle accident lawyer. You may or may not also know that by working with a motorcycle accident lawyer, you can maximize the value of your claim and increase your chances of securing fair compensation for your case. Since 1993, Joel A. Gordon & Associates has been providing motorcycle accident victims and their families with representation and legal services that produce solid results.
- Nursing Home Abuse
If you have observed what you believe to be signs of abuse or neglect of a nursing home resident, the matter should be investigated immediately. Any observable injuries or conditions should be photographed immediately before the condition or injuries disappear. After proper documentation of the injuries or conditions, the matter should then be brought to the immediate attention of an attorney.
- Tractor Trailer Accident
When you work with our firm, we will apply our expertise and knowledge to challenge negligent truck drivers, trucking companies as well as insurance companies. Every effort will be made to obtain monetary compensation that is appropriate for your personal injury claim. Whether your Houston tractor-trailer truck accident was caused by driver fatigue or a truck company over stocking a vehicle, we are more than prepared to get you maximum compensation for your medical bills, lost wages, property damage as well as your pain and suffering.
- Underinsured Motorist Coverage
If you suffered a serious injury from an auto, motorcycle, or 18 wheeler accident, and you have concerns that the responsible third party does not have enough liability insurance to cover your damages, then you should consult with a Houston personal injury attorney who has the experience and answers you need to move forward with assisting you on your possible underinsured motorist claim.
- Uninsured Motorist Coverage
If you suffered a serious injury from an auto, motorcycle, or 18 wheeler accident, and you have concerns that the responsible third party does not have liability insurance to cover your damages, then you should consult with a Houston personal injury attorney who has the experience and answers you need to move forward with assisting you on your possible uninsured motorist claim.
- Wrongful Death
If able to prove that the death of a family member was caused by someone's negligence, then you can assert a wrongful death claim under Texas law. If you win or settle the wrongful death claim, then you will be entitled to recover compensatory damages, and possibly punitive damages as well. While no amount of money will return a deceased family member, filing a wrongful death claim can hold negligent parties accountable for their actions.
