Shoulder injuries can occur in falls and car accidents when you use your arms to brace yourself or suffer a direct blow to the shoulder. At the time of the injury, you may feel a snapping sensation, followed by pain and arm weakness. Later on, you may feel pain when lifting or reaching, or when sleeping on the affected side.
The attorneys at The Law Firm of Ted B. Lyon & Associates offer a free initial consultation to evaluate your shoulder injury case and discuss your options. If you were injured due to the negligence of another person, our lawyers can help you seek compensation for your medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering and other damages. From our office in Mesquite, we represent injured people throughout the Dallas-Fort Worth area.

The insurance company will claim that you injured your shoulder another way.
The following are examples of common shoulder injuries:
The best outcome of any personal injury case is that you recover completely with conservative treatment. However, it’s important to make sure the money is there to meet your needs if you need surgery.
We handle all personal injury cases on a contingency fee basis, meaning there are only lawyer fees if we win.
