Valley Mills Personal Injury Lawyer — Serving Bosque County, Texas

How long do I have to file a personal injury lawsuit in Texas? In most cases the deadline to file a personal injury lawsuit in Texas is two years from the date of the injury. Some circumstances can shorten or extend that period, so it is important to get timely legal advice to preserve your rights.

Get medical attention right away, even if injuries seem minor. Document the scene with photos, exchange contact information with other parties, and obtain a police report when applicable. Avoid giving recorded statements to insurance companies without consulting a lawyer, and keep copies of all medical bills and records to support any future claim.

Many personal injury cases are resolved through negotiation and settlement with insurers. However, if fair compensation cannot be reached, your case may proceed to trial where evidence is presented before a judge or jury. We prepare each case as if it will go to trial to ensure we are ready to protect your interests at every stage of the process.

Damages typically include past and future medical expenses, lost income, property damage, and non-economic losses such as pain and suffering. The specifics depend on the facts of the case and supporting documentation. Future care needs and permanent impairments can significantly affect valuation, so thorough medical documentation is essential to establish the full scope of damages.
