If you’re reading this at 2 AM with ice on your back from yesterday’s crash on I-35, here’s what you need to know right now: you have the right to pursue justice without paying anything upfront.
At Angel Reyes & Associates, we only get paid if you win—just like most truck accident lawyers in Texas should operate.
That crushing worry about legal bills on top of everything else?
You can let that go and focus on what matters—getting your life back on track with the right legal team by your side.
What You Need to Know
- You can hire Angel Reyes & Associates without upfront costs – consultations are free, no money needed to start
- You only pay us if you win – typically 33-40% of whatever you recover
- You can access our 30+ years of experience immediately – no waiting while evidence disappears
What Does Our Contingency Fee Mean for You?
A contingency fee means you can hire experienced legal representation without financial risk. Our payment depends entirely on your success. No win, no fee. Period.
Here’s how you benefit with Angel Reyes & Associates: if you recover $150,000 and our fee is 33%, you receive $100,500 and we get $49,500. If you recover nothing, you owe us nothing.
(Wondering how much your truck accident case might be worth? That depends on several factors we can discuss during your free consultation.)
While this system is common among truck accident lawyers, we’ve perfected it over 30 years to ensure you get maximum value.
You shouldn’t have to choose between paying rent and hiring a lawyer after someone else’s negligence destroyed your truck and injured your body.
With our contingency fee structure, you can take on trucking companies and their unlimited legal budgets because we level the playing field for you.
Can You Really Start With Us Without Paying Anything?
Absolutely. You can walk into Angel Reyes & Associates today and get a comprehensive consultation without spending a dime.
Here’s what you can expect from us: We’ll review what happened, explain your legal options, tell you what your case might be worth based on our 30+ years of experience, and outline exactly how we’d fight for you. All completely free.
If you decide to move forward with our firm, you can start your legal case immediately.
Our investigation team, evidence gathering process, insurance company negotiations—you can begin protecting your rights the day after your accident, even if your wallet was in the truck that got totaled.
While some lawyers make you wait or charge consultation fees, we believe you shouldn’t lose another day while crucial evidence disappears and witnesses forget what they saw.
What Can You Get With Our Contingency Fee?
When you hire Angel Reyes & Associates on contingency, you’re gaining access to our complete legal arsenal:
Professional investigation team – You can have our experts visit the crash site, photograph everything, and talk to witnesses before trucking companies make evidence disappear. We’ve done this thousands of times.
Insurance company shield – Those adjusters calling you constantly?
Our team handles them so you never have to worry about saying the wrong thing or accepting a lowball offer.
We know their tactics because we’ve been fighting them for decades.
Case building expertise – You can get medical records properly organized, employment documentation gathered, and expert witnesses who can prove exactly how the truck driver caused your crash.
Our network of specialists is unmatched in Texas.
Negotiation power – You can sit back while our experienced attorneys fight for maximum compensation.
If the trucking company won’t offer fair money, we’re prepared to take them to court—and they know it.
Our contingency fee gives you access to the same level of legal firepower that we’ve used to help thousands of Texas families get justice.

What About Other Costs You Might Face?
Smart question. Truck accident cases can involve additional expenses beyond attorney fees:
- Court filing fees ($300-500)
- Medical records from doctors and hospitals ($50-200 per provider)
- Expert witnesses like accident reconstruction specialists ($3,000-10,000)
- Depositions and court reporters ($500-1,500 per day)
Here’s how we handle this for you: Angel Reyes & Associates advances all these costs and only recovers them if you win.
You’ll never get surprise bills in the mail while you’re recovering.
While some firms make clients pay these costs regardless of outcome, we believe that’s wrong.
You should only pay costs from your settlement, never from your pocket.

How Much Should You Expect to Pay Us?
Our fees are transparent and competitive:
Around 33% is typical if your case settles before going to trial. Since we resolve most cases through skilled negotiation, this is the most common fee structure in Texas.
Around 40% is typical if your case goes to trial. Trials require significantly more time, preparation, and court appearances, but we’re fully prepared when necessary.
These percentages are standard across Texas, but what sets us apart is the value you get for that fee. Our three decades of experience, proven track record, and comprehensive approach mean you’re not just paying for legal services—you’re investing in results.
You’ll receive a written fee agreement that spells out exactly which percentage applies in different situations, as required by Texas law.
