Frequently Asked Questions
Animal Law FAQ
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Texas?
Texas law generally sets a two-year statute of limitations for personal injury claims (Civil Practice & Remedies Code § 16.003), measured from the date of the injury. Missing this deadline typically bars the claim, so early legal consultation matters.
Can I still recover damages if I was partly at fault for my accident?
Yes, under Texas’s modified comparative fault rule (Civil Practice & Remedies Code § 33.001), an injured person can generally recover damages as long as they are found less than 51% at fault, though their recovery is reduced by their own percentage of responsibility.
