The Rio Grande Valley (RGV) has seen remarkable progress in reducing unemployment. Once burdened with some of the highest jobless rates in Texas, the RGV is now witnessing a transformation driven by community effort, economic growth, and improved access to education.
While these advancements are promising, life’s challenges don’t disappear with a better job market. If you or a loved one has been injured in an accident, you need a trusted ally to protect your rights and secure the compensation you deserve. At Herrman & Herrman, Personal Injury Lawyers, we’re here to support you through life’s unexpected hurdles.
What’s Driving Lower Unemployment in the RGV?
The latest reports from Workforce Solutions reveal a drastic shift. In some areas, unemployment has dropped by as much as 40% compared to the 1990s. This progress wasn’t accidental; it’s the result of collaborative efforts from businesses, organizations, and residents to improve the region’s economic opportunities.
Key factors include:
- Population Growth: With a growing population, new businesses are opening their doors daily, creating more opportunities.
- Trade Expansion: The RGV’s position as a trade hub has bolstered the local economy.
- Education Advancements: Access to quality education has transformed the workforce.
Despite these improvements, accidents and personal injuries can disrupt lives in an instant. Whether it’s a workplace incident, a car crash, or a slip and fall, injuries can leave you feeling lost. That’s where Herrman & Herrman comes in. We fight to ensure you don’t have to face these challenges alone.
Education: The Catalyst for Change
A growing emphasis on education is reshaping the RGV. Today, nearly 65% of residents have at least a high school diploma or GED—a significant jump from 50% just a few decades ago. The addition of institutions like South Texas College, UTRGV, and the upcoming Texas A&M branch is equipping residents with the skills needed to compete in a modern job market.
Dual enrollment programs and the aspirations of second- and third-generation immigrants are giving young people the tools they need to thrive. This progress shows the RGV’s resilience and determination to build a better future.
But even as the region prospers, accidents can happen. No matter how careful you are, you may find yourself injured due to someone else’s negligence. When that happens, Herrman & Herrman is ready to step in and fight for the justice you deserve.

CONTACT HERRMAN & HERRMAN IF YOU HAVE BEEN INJURED IN ANY OF THE FOLLOWING TYPES OF ACCIDENTS:
We can help you if you have been harmed by the following:
- Car accidents – Our lawyers have extensive experience handling car accident cases. We will work to identify the party or parties at fault for the crash and build a case to demonstrate persuasively how the parties caused the accident and your injuries. We will seek fair and full compensation through a negotiated settlement or at trial if necessary.
- Truck accidents – Thousands of large commercial trucks travel the roads of Texas every single day. Unfortunately, careless truck drivers and trucking companies disregarding safety put innocent people at risk of serious injuries. If you’ve been injured in a truck accident, let our experienced Texas personal injury lawyers stand up to the trucking companies and insurers on your behalf.
- Motorcycle accidents – Motorcycle riders often suffer grievous injuries in crashes caused by other motorists. Too many motorcycle accidents in Corpus Christi are caused by careless drivers who don’t look for motorcycle riders or violate their right of way. Our personal injury lawyers will work to cut through the bias and stigma against motorcycle riders. Our goal is to seek the financial compensation that you’ll need to recover from a serious motorcycle accident and injuries such as bone fractures, road rash, or traumatic brain injury.
- Product liability – Product manufacturers have a legal obligation to make products that are safe for their intended uses and to warn consumers of any risks that may come with the product. When products have design or manufacturing defects or undisclosed dangers, the product manufacturer may be legally responsible for injuries suffered by consumers. Our attorneys can help you evaluate whether you have a valid product liability claim.
- Brain injury – Brain injuries can leave accident victims with disabilities that leave them unable to work or perform many tasks of daily living. Seeking compensation for a brain injury in an accident often proves incredibly complex. The brain injury survivor may seek compensation for anticipated future medical care and the medical care already provided. Our personal injury lawyers can help you through the difficult recovery process following a brain injury and will fight to make sure you have the resources you need.
- Spinal injury – Spinal cord injuries could cost millions of dollars of care over the course of the victim’s lifetime, especially when those injuries result in partial or complete paralysis, such as paraplegia or quadriplegia. If you or your loved one has suffered a spinal cord injury, you deserve compassionate legal representation. Our attorney can help you determine whether you may be entitled to claim compensation for your injury and expenses related to living with the disability, such as making a home more accessible.
- Wrongful death – If you have lost a loved one due to the negligent or reckless actions of another party, your family deserves to seek accountability and compensation from those at fault for the wrongful death. Our caring and dedicated attorneys can help guide you and your family through this difficult and painful time and seek justice for your loved one.
