How Long Do I Have to File a Personal Injury Claim in Texas?

The time limit varies based on the type of case, but for a personal injury lawsuit, the party claiming injury only has two years to file from the date of the incident.

Many people don’t realize that Texas law limits the time within which someone has the ability to make a legal claim, called a statute of limitations. Like all states, Texas has imposed limits in its statutes with regard to how long someone has to go to court and file a claim after they have suffered harm due to someone else’s negligence.

This is important because once the time period has expired – unless there is an applicable legal exception – the Texas court system will likely dismiss the case and the injured person will forfeit the right to file a lawsuit to recover damages forever. Being injured while a minor tolls the statute of limitations – meaning it doesn’t even begin to run until the day they turn 18, so they will technically have until their 20th birthday to file a lawsuit, no matter their age at the time of the injury. Hiring a personal injury attorney right away after an accident will ensure you do not miss this and other important deadlines.

What types of compensation can I receive?

Victims of negligence can pursue a number of different types of compensation for damages, with the most common lawsuits arising from pursuing car accident compensation.

Types of compensation available for victims include:

1. pain and suffering;
2. medical expenses;
3. funeral expenses;
4. lost wages;
5. lost earning capacity;
6. loss of enjoyment of life;
7. permanent disfigurement;
