Auto Accidents in Texas
Motor vehicle accidents can be incredibly devastating. Unfortunately, someone is injured approximately every two minutes in Texas due to a vehicle collision. Following a motor vehicle accident, it is extremely common for victims to suffer serious injuries that demand extensive medical care. In many cases, victims have to spend weeks or even months going through surgery, rehabilitation, and other treatment. In severe cases, victims may be left permanently disabled as a result of their injuries. After being injured in a crash due to the reckless actions of another driver, victims have legal options.
Pursuing Legal Action
In Texas, there is a statute of limitations that sets a deadline for filing personal injury claims. Generally, the victim has two years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit. It’s crucial to initiate the legal process within this timeframe, or you may lose the right to seek compensation for damages.
In general, car crash victims in Texas may be eligible to recover various types of damages, including medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, pain and suffering, and, in some cases, punitive damages. Understanding the full scope of potential damages can help victims estimate the compensation they may be entitled to pursue.
