The order of operations is medical care, then evidence, then counsel. A trauma evaluation at Central Texas Medical Center (San Marcos) or a comparable San Marcos facility creates the contemporaneous record that supports a future claim, especially when the injury is something like Traumatic brain injuries from falls and struck by accidents that can be missed on a roadside check.
