A Texas personal injury case is a civil claim brought by someone who
was hurt because another person or company failed to act with reasonable care.
It is not a criminal case. Nobody goes to jail, and the state is not a party.
What a personal injury claim asks for is money: payment for medical bills, lost income, and the harm the injury caused.
The same accident can lead to both a civil and criminal case.
A drunk driver may face criminal charges brought by the state and a civil claim brought by the person they hit.
The two proceed separately, and the outcome of one does not decide the other.
Beyond that, the specifics matter a great deal.
A crash involving a commercial truck raises different questions than a collision between two cars.
An injury on someone else's property often turns on what the owner knew, and for how long.

What you can pursue depends on what happened and how it affected you.
Texas law recognizes two broad categories.
Economic damages are the losses with a dollar figure attached: emergency care, surgery, hospital stays, and follow-up treatment; income lost while you were unable to work; property damage; reduced earning capacity if the injury affects what you can do going forward; and the cost of care you will still need after the case ends.
Non-economic damages look at the parts of an injury that don’t come with a bill. That may include the pain you live with, emotional distress, physical limitations, scarring or disfigurement, and other ways the injury has changed your everyday life.
Not every category applies to every case, and no one can tell you what a claim is worth without knowing the facts. Documenting future losses, in particular, takes work because it means establishing what an injury will cost someone years from now rather than what it has cost so far.
For many injury cases in Texas, you generally have two years from the date you were injured to file a lawsuit.
That is the deadline people are usually referring to when they talk about the statute of limitations for personal injury in Texas.
If the deadline passes before you file, you may no longer have the option to take your case to court.
That two-year window isn't the same for every case.
Claims involving a government entity can come with earlier notice requirements,
and different rules may apply when a child is injured, an injury is discovered later, or certain types of medical claims are involved.
If some time has passed and you're worried you waited too long, don't rule out your case on your own.
An attorney can look at when the injury happened, who may be responsible,
and whether any exceptions or additional deadlines apply before determining how much time you may have left.
Serious injury claims usually involve a company and an insurer with lawyers already reviewing what happened.
What a case looks like months later often depends on decisions made in the first few weeks:
what evidence was preserved, what was documented, and what was said to whom.
Our attorneys investigate how the injury happened, identify who may be responsible,
work to preserve records before they cycle out,
review what insurance coverage is available, and handle communications with the insurer.
We build claims around the full effect an injury has had on someone's life, and we prepare them for court.
You will reach your attorney directly.
We handle cases throughout Texas, and if you cannot come to our office, we will come to you.
Tell us what happened and we will tell you where you stand.
A case review costs you nothing and does not commit you to anything.
