Founder of Tijerina Legal Group, P.C. a ThreeBestRated® award-winning personal injury law firm, shares his journey

With over 20 years of experience in Personal Injury Law, Tijerina Legal Group is one of the leading Personal Injury Lawyers in McAllen. In recognition of their dedication to and expertise in Personal Injury Law, Tijerina Legal Group was recently listed as one of the top rated Personal Injury Lawyers in McAllen, by ThreeBestRated®. 

This recent recognition is not the first time Tijerina Legal Group has received this honor. They have been consistently named as a top-rated Personal Injury Lawyer by ThreeBestRated® since 2015.

“My focus is to ensure and protect the community from being taken advantage of by the insurance industry.  Any time our efforts are recognized, we take it as a blessing.  We are grateful for the award because it makes it easier for the people in our community to choose a results-driven group they can trust to work hard on their case while focusing on achieving the best results for them, from beginning to end.  So, we are honored that ThreeBestRated®, after conducting its thorough inspection, would again recognize us as one of the top personal injury firms in McAllen,” says Humberto Tijerina, the founder of Tijerina Legal Group, P.C.

The birth of Tijerina Legal Group, P.C:

Growing up, Tijerina witnessed a great deal of inequality in our communities – and even personally experienced discrimination. This motivated him to want to learn how to defend and protect those that are taken advantage of and who are unable to protect themselves against the insurance behemoths.

Early in his legal career, Tijerina worked as a lawyer focusing on business deals and other legal corporate matters. “Dealing in business transaction matters taught me to exercise increased attention to detail. Eventually, this translated to using these skills to identify what steps one must take as a personal injury attorney to help our community,” he says.

He founded Tijerina Legal Group, PC in the middle of the one of toughest times for a business to start, the recession of 2008.  These challenging times coupled with Tijerina’s persistence in succeeding in life and in his legal experiences helped Tijerina Legal Group forge ahead as an innovator in the management of personal injury cases and in providing outstanding customer service.  As a result, to date, he and his team have recovered millions of dollars for thousands of people in the Rio Grande Valley community.

Even during the pandemic of COVID-19, Tijerina Legal Group increased in size and continued to improve the quality of their services and client satisfaction. “While many other businesses were forced to close, we were fortunate to be designated an essential business due to the medical assistance and legal services that victims of personal injury require.  During this time, we were committed to ensuring the wellbeing of our legal team and provided a predictable and safe work environment, while also making key hires.  This strategy has helped us not only grow but continue our goal of providing outstanding client service,” he says.

Tijerina Legal Group, P.C.’s work ethic:

Hiring a lawyer can be a difficult experience or it can be a successful and pleasant one, depending on the lawyer hired and how they run their practice.  We asked Tijerina why he believes the Tijerina Legal Group has earned the ThreeBestRated®  award since 2015 and what sets them apart from the competition.  “At Tijerina Legal Group, we fight for all the compensation that our client deserves as a result of any injuries. Our office follows a strategic approach to making settlement demands. Rather than focusing on  a certain amount right off the start, we take the time to listen to our client’s injury complaints and help ensure that the medical providers are doing their best to document and remedy each and every complaint,” Tijerina explains.

We also asked Tijerina to share one of the things that set them apart from his competitors when providing complete customer service.  “Unlike many Firms, we keep our clients involved and consult regularly with our clients to keep them informed and help them make a decision based on settlement offers that are made by the insurance company. In this way, the client is involved in the negotiation process and has the final say on whether they wish to accept a settlement offer or to take the matter before a jury,” he says.

“If an insurance company is not making a fair and reasonable offer based on the evidence-backed injuries, the client can decide whether they wish to present their case to a jury and have it render judgment on the facts of their case,” he further adds.
