⚠️ WARNING
Deceptive Case Aggregators Are Targeting Accident Victims. Don’t Let Them Ruin Your Case!
No middlemen.
No shortcuts.
No risk to your recovery.
If you searched for Thomas J. Henry and landed somewhere else, you need to know this:
Texas law now makes it a felony for deceptive online lead generators to solicit accident victims or sell their cases.
Yet some websites are still disguising themselves as “legal help” while operating as pay-per-lead middlemen, collecting your information and auctioning your case to the highest bidder.
When you submit your case through a case aggregator, you are not choosing a lawyer — they are choosing one for you.
Why Texas Passed This Law
Texas passed H.B. 2733 because accident victims were being exploited online.
Case aggregators were treating injured people like inventory harvesting claims, reselling cases, and hiding behind digital loopholes. The Legislature shut that down.
The law now clearly recognizes that pay-per-lead case selling and deceptive online solicitation cause real harm legally, financially, and personally.
In simple terms, the law says:
- Using false, misleading, or deceptive online messages to get accident victims to sign up is now illegal
- Selling or buying cases through pay-per-lead schemes can trigger criminal liability
- This applies to websites, texts, DMs, ads, and online funnels, not just phone calls or in-person solicitation
The Truth About Case Aggregators
When you submit your case through a case aggregator, you are not choosing a lawyer — they are choosing one for you.
Many of these sites:
- Bid on real law firm names to mislead accident victims
- Hide who you’re actually contacting
- Collect and distribute your personal and accident details
- Sell your case to an attorney you never selected
And in many cases, your case is sold to an inexperienced or careless firm — one that cuts corners, ignores rules, or prioritizes volume over results — damaging your case before it even starts.
Under the updated law, these tactics aren’t just unethical. They carry felony consequences.
What This Means for Your Case
Using a case aggregator can:
- Strip you of control over who represents you
- Put your case in the hands of a firm focused on speed, not outcomes
- Lead to early mistakes that weaken your leverage with insurance companies
- Permanently reduce the compensation you may be able to recover
Once your case is mishandled early, the damage is often irreversible. That’s exactly what this law was designed to prevent.
How to Identify a Case Aggregator Website
Case aggregator sites are built to look like law firms, but they aren’t. Their goal isn’t to represent you, it’s to collect your information and sell your case.
Watch for these red flags:
- No Clearly Identified Law Firm or Attorney. If the site avoids naming a real firm or buries it in fine print, it’s likely a middleman.
- Quizzes, Surveys, or “Instant Offers.” Multi-step forms and “check your eligibility” questions are often used to rush you into submitting personal details.
- Promises of Fast Money or Guaranteed Results. Claims like “See what your case is worth” or “Instant compensation” are common bait and often misleading. No qualified attorney will place a value on your case before conducting real research into your accident, injuries, and evidence.
- More Forms than Real Legal Information. If the focus is on data collection instead of explaining your rights, that’s a warning sign.
- No Clarity on Who Will Handle Your Case. If you don’t know the name of your lawyer or law firm before you click submit, you’re likely dealing with a case aggregator.

Your Questions Answered
We have straight answers to difficult questions to help you make critical decisions, navigate legal process and win your settlement.
Following an accident, there are always more questions than answers. At Thomas J. Henry, we’re here to answer any questions you have about your injury case.
Do I Need a Personal Injury Attorney Help Me Settle My Case?
Insurance companies will attempt to pay out as little as possible when resolving an injury claim. When an individual pursues compensation from an insurance company without the aid of an attorney, the insurance company may see the lack of representation as an opportunity to lowball the injured victim as there is no immediate risk of trial or legal recourse.
By hiring a competent attorney who has a reputation for achieving large verdicts in the courtroom, you are sending a message to the insurer. It will provide the insurance company with extra incentive to offer a fair settlement the first time.
If that first offer is not fair, an experienced personal attorney will have the resources and the knowledge to negotiate with the insurance company in pursuit of a better offer.
How Are Damages Calculated in a Texas Personal Injury Case?
In Texas, there is no set formula for determining the damages owed in a personal injury lawsuit. Rather, the amount awarded to a plaintiff is determined by the jury. This is why it is important you have an experienced attorney with the resources and knowledge to accurately quantify and explain the extent of your injuries.
How Much Does it Cost to Hire a Personal Injury Attorney?
The cost associated with hiring a personal injury attorney and how payment is collected may vary from firm to firm. At Thomas J. Henry, we work on a contingency fee basis. This means that we don’t charge our clients a penny unless and until we win their case.
Working on a contingency fee basis allows clients access to resources and legal representation they might otherwise struggle to afford. The more serious a case is, the more money it costs to take to trial. This is because complex litigation tends to take longer to resolve and the entities involved fight harder.
This is especially true if your lawsuit is against a large company, as would be the case in a trucking accident or on-the-job injury. Such companies employ teams of lawyers and have seemingly unlimited financial resources. You need an attorney who has the same. Thomas J. Henry employs a team of more than 100 attorneys and has the money to fight your case out to the end.
Finally, by collecting any fees and expenses after a verdict or settlement is secured, Thomas J. Henry can help ensure his clients are able to focus on healing. “The client’s job is to heal. We will handle the rest,” says Thomas J. Henry.
How Long Does It Take to Settle a Texas Auto Accident Case?
How long it takes to settle your Texas car crash lawsuit generally depends on the complexity of your case and whether or not fault is being contested. For example, a multi-vehicle collision involving a commercial vehicle will likely take longer to settle than a crash involving two vehicles as there is more evidence to gather and liability may not be immediately apparent.
How Do I Speak to a Wrongful Death Attorney Near Me?
Texas law is very clear on who can and can’t file a wrongful death claim. Wrongful death beneficiaries are limited to three categories:
- Parents
- Children
- Spouses
Other relatives, even those that may be considered immediate family members like brothers and sisters, are barred from pursuing wrongful death claims in Texas.
If you meet the above criteria and would like to speak to a Texas wrongful death lawyer in your city, call Thomas J. Henry Law now. Our attorneys are available 24/7 nights and weekends to hear your claim. Additionally, if you are unable to travel to one of our offices, we can send an attorney directly to you!
