Insurance Claims
The devastation cause by Hurricane Ike is difficult to comprehend. If you were affected, you probably filed a claim with your insurance company. Your insurance company has a duty to settle your claim in a timely manner, in good faith, and for a fair amount. Your insurance policy is a contract that the insurer must honor. Unfortunately, however, insurers often mishandle or underpay claims. If this happens to you, you have several remedies. Please visit the Insurance FAQ page of our website for answers to frequently asked questions regarding insurance claims.
It takes a highly experienced attorney to successfully challenge an insurance company; Lamba & Associates has this experience and can represent you in your insurance claim arising from Hurricane Ike, other homeowners' insurance claims, claims against apartment complexes, and business interruption claims.
Criminal Law
Just because you have been arrested and charged with a crime does not mean you will be convicted. When your future is at risk, you need a skilled and experienced criminal defense attorney to advise you of your options, advocate aggressively on your behalf, and work to achieve a favorable outcome for your case. Lamba & Associates offers skilled representation in a variety of misdemeanor and felony criminal matters, including:
- Drug crimes, including drug possession

- Murder
- Indecency with a child
- Aggravated sexual assault of a minor
For the convenience of our clients, we are available for evening and Saturday appointments, and we offer payment plans for certain complex criminal cases.
Probate
The term "probate" is derived from the Latin term meaning "to prove the will". Probate refers to the process where a court oversees the administration of a deceased person's estate. Probate may occur even if there is no will; if the decedent died without a will, the decedent is said to have died "intestate", and the decedent's estate will be distributed to the decedent's heirs as defined by the Texas laws governing intestate succession.
Whether an estate requires probate administration depends on the nature and extent of a deceased person's assets and property. Lamba & Associates can advise you as to whether probate is necessary. If probate is required, we will assist you in every phase of the probate process, from preparing and filing the necessary documents with the court to initiate probate, to overseeing the final administration of the estate.
Property Appraisal
In the current economy where property values are decreasing, you may be paying higher property taxes on an appraisal of your home that is too high. Lamba & Associates can assist you in protesting your home's appraisal value to the Texas Appraisal Review Board (ARB) and with other property tax appraisal litigation matters. We can save you significant sums of money by lowering your property taxes. If you suspect that your home is worth less than the current appraised property tax value, contact Lamba & Associates.
