If we decide to work together, you will have our promise that attorney Kay Van Wey will be personally involved in your case.

Common Mistakes Following a Dallas Auto Accident
Have you recently been involved in a Dallas auto accident? You may not know what to do after a car accident, which is why Dallas personal injury lawyer Kay Van Wey would like to tell you about the mistakes people often make and that you should avoid. Watch this video to find out the common mistakes not to make after a Texas accident.
One of the biggest mistakes you can make after a car crash is not seeking medical care immediately. If your injuries are minor, do not ignore them believing they will go away. The problem with waiting to see a doctor is that insurance companies will try to exploit you for delaying medical treatment. They may say that you are not really injured since you didn’t go to the doctor immediately. Although this may not be true, they will try to use this argument to settle your case for lower than the amount you may deserve.
Another mistake that can hurt your case is waiting too long to hire a lawyer. Call Kay Van Wey, a skilled Texas board certified personal injury trial lawyer, who will help you through the process and who will fight for your fair and just recovery.

Dallas Attorney Holds Drug Companies Liable For Faulty Drugs

Are Drug Companies Truly Concerned With Your Best Interests?
Most everyone in this country has taken prescription drugs at one time or another. For some people, prescription pills are necessary in order to live a healthy life. However, there are growing concerns about the pharmaceutical industry, as Texas medical malpractice attorney Kay Van Wey discusses in this video.
When you take prescription pills, you expect pharmaceutical companies to make their drugs safe. Unfortunately, just as there are defective medical devices, there are also defective and dangerous pills that are produced and taken by millions of people without any warning.
