What is the deadline to file a Texas personal injury lawsuit?

Texas Civil Practice & Remedies Code §16.003 sets a two-year statute of limitations for most personal injury and wrongful death claims. Claims against governmental entities can trigger Texas Tort Claims Act notice deadlines as short as six months.

What if I was partially at fault?

Texas follows modified comparative fault under §33.001. You can recover damages as long as you are 50% or less at fault. Your recovery is reduced by your percentage of fault.

How does Texas paid-or-incurred medical billing work?

Texas Civil Practice & Remedies Code §41.0105 limits medical-bill recovery to amounts actually paid or incurred — not what was billed. Careful documentation matters when the medical record is in dispute.

Are exemplary damages available?

Yes, when the conduct rises to gross negligence. Texas Civil Practice & Remedies Code §41.003 permits exemplary damages on clear and convincing evidence of fraud, malice, or gross negligence. §41.008 caps exemplary damages with statutory exceptions.
