When Can You Bring a Personal Injury Claim?

In general, you may have a claim when another person or company failed to use reasonable care and that failure caused your injuries. Texas law calls this negligence, and it applies to most accidents, from a rear-end collision to an unsafe workplace.

The Four Elements We Prove

•         Duty: the person or company owed you a duty of reasonable care.

•         Breach: they failed to meet that duty.

•         Causation: that failure caused your injury.

•         Damages: you suffered real losses as a result.

Why Evidence Matters Early

Surveillance video is overwritten, vehicles are repaired, and witnesses forget details. Speaking with a lawyer early helps protect the proof your claim depends on.

What Compensation Can You Seek?

The damages available depend on your case, but they commonly fall into two groups.

Economic Damages

These are the measurable costs of the injury, including past and future medical bills, lost wages, reduced earning capacity, and out-of-pocket expenses.

Non-Economic Damages

These cover the human cost: physical pain, mental anguish, scarring or disfigurement, physical impairment, and loss of enjoyment of life.

When Punitive Damages May Apply

In rare cases involving extreme misconduct, such as gross negligence, Texas law may allow additional damages meant to punish the wrongdoer. An attorney can tell you whether your facts could support that.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do I have to file a personal injury lawsuit in Texas?

Most Texas personal injury lawsuits must be filed within two years of the injury, with some exceptions. Waiting can hurt your case even before the deadline, so speak with a lawyer as soon as you can.

What if I was partly at fault for the accident?

You may still recover compensation. Texas uses a modified comparative fault rule: your award is reduced by your percentage of fault, and you cannot recover if you are found more than 50% responsible. 

Should I talk to the other driver's insurance company?

Be careful. Insurers may ask for a recorded statement, and your words can be used to limit your claim. You can politely decline and refer them to your attorney.

How much does it cost to hire Daspit Law Firm?

Nothing upfront. We are paid only if we recover compensation for you, and the first consultation is free.

Can you meet me at home or in the hospital?

Yes. We make home and hospital visits so you can focus on healing.
