Frequently Asked Questions About Spinal Cord Injury Claims

  • How long do I have to file a spinal cord injury claim in Texas?

     Texas law generally allows two years from the date of the injury to file a lawsuit. However, waiting too long can make it harder to gather evidence and build a strong case.

  • Can I recover damages if I was partially at fault for my injury?

     Yes. Texas follows a modified comparative negligence rule, meaning you can recover damages as long as you are less than 51 percent at fault. However, your total compensation may be reduced based on your percentage of fault.

  • How much is my spinal cord injury case worth?

     The value of a spinal cord injury case depends on the severity of the injury, medical expenses, lost income, and long-term care needs. Settlements and verdicts in these cases often reach six or seven figures due to the lifelong impact of the injury.

  • What if my spinal cord injury was caused by medical malpractice?

     If a doctor, surgeon, or hospital error led to your spinal cord injury, you may have a medical malpractice claim. These cases require strong evidence and expert testimony to prove negligence.
