FAQs
Common texas injury Questions
What types of personal injury cases do you handle in Texas?
We handle a wide range of cases across Texas including car accidents, truck and 18-wheeler wrecks, oil field and oil rig injuries, refinery explosions, motorcycle accidents, workplace injuries, premises liability, product liability, catastrophic injuries, and wrongful death claims. If you’ve been hurt due to someone else’s negligence in Texas, we can help.
How does Texas personal injury law work?
Texas follows a modified comparative fault rule, which means you can recover compensation as long as you are not more than 50% responsible for the accident. If you are found to be 51% or more at fault, you cannot recover damages. Your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault, which is why having an experienced attorney to protect your claim matters.
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Texas?
The statute of limitations for most personal injury cases in Texas is two years from the date of the accident. There are some exceptions that can shorten or extend this deadline, so it’s important to speak with a Texas personal injury lawyer as soon as possible to make sure you don’t lose your right to file.
