Frequently Asked Questions

What types of accidents are most common in South Texas?

South Texas sees a high number of serious accidents tied to highway travel, commercial trucking, industrial work, and rural road conditions. Common cases include car and truck crashes on major routes like I-37 and US-281, machinery and equipment accidents, oilfield and agricultural work injuries, and incidents involving unsafe commercial or public properties.

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

In most South Texas personal injury cases, Texas law allows two years from the date of the injury to file a lawsuit. Claims involving government entities may have shorter notice deadlines. Missing these time limits can prevent you from recovering compensation.

What is my South Texas personal injury case worth?

The value of a South Texas personal injury case depends on factors such as the severity of your injuries, medical expenses, time missed from work, future treatment needs, and how the injury affects your daily life. Insurance coverage, liability disputes, and long-term consequences also play a role in determining potential compensation.

Will I have to go to court for a South Texas personal injury case?

Many South Texas personal injury cases resolve through settlement without going to court. However, if liability is disputed or insurers refuse to offer fair compensation, filing a lawsuit and preparing for trial may be necessary. Building a case for court often strengthens settlement negotiations.

What if the at-fault party is a commercial or out-of-state company?

Accidents involving commercial or out-of-state companies are common in South Texas due to trucking, industrial operations, and cross-border commerce. These cases often involve complex insurance policies and corporate defense teams.

A South Texas personal injury attorney can pursue claims across state lines and hold companies accountable under Texas law.
