Houston Mental Injury Attorneys Advocating for Invisible Harm

Not all injuries show up on X-rays or scans, but the emotional and psychological effects of an accident or traumatic event can be just as devastating — sometimes even more so. Conditions such as anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), sleep disruption, mood swings, and trouble with work or relationships can follow a serious incident and significantly disrupt daily life.

At Schilter Law Firm, we recognize that emotional and psychological harm is real, serious, and deserving of full legal compensation. We fight to make sure these injuries are taken seriously by insurers and juries and that you receive the justice you deserve.

Can I recover for emotional trauma without a physical injury?
