Accidents happen quickly, but the consequences can last a lifetime. Whether it’s a car crash on Highway 183, a slip-and-fall in a local business, or a workplace injury in Irving’s bustling warehouse sector, personal injuries can leave you facing medical bills, lost wages, and long-term recovery. If someone else’s negligence caused your injury, you have the legal right to seek compensation. An Irving personal injury attorney from Loncar Lyon Jenkins can help you hold the responsible party accountable and secure the financial support you need.
Personal injury law allows injured individuals to seek compensation when they’ve been harmed due to another party’s negligence, recklessness, or intentional misconduct. In Irving, these cases often involve:
Texas operates under a modified comparative negligence rule. If you’re found to be 50% or less at fault for the incident, you may still recover damages—though your award will be reduced by your percentage of fault. This makes proper documentation and a strong legal strategy essential to a successful claim.
Irving is a transportation hub with major roadways like SH 183, Loop 12, and SH 114, making auto accidents a leading cause of personal injury claims. Common causes include:
Whether you were hit on your commute or injured as a passenger, a personal injury lawyer can help you seek damages from the at-fault driver or even third parties like employers or vehicle manufacturers.
Falls in stores, restaurants, or parking lots often result from:
Property owners have a duty to keep their premises safe. If you’re injured due to their failure, you may be entitled to compensation for your medical costs and other damages.
Irving is home to numerous warehouses, construction sites, and industrial facilities, where workers face daily hazards. While workers’ compensation may apply, some cases allow for third-party personal injury claims—especially when defective equipment, negligent contractors, or unsafe conditions are involved.
If a doctor, nurse, or medical facility causes harm due to a misdiagnosis, surgical error, or medication mistake, you may have a valid personal injury claim. These cases require expert testimony and thorough investigation.
Personal injury damages in Texas fall into three main categories:
These are rare but may be awarded in cases of extreme recklessness or intentional harm, such as DUI-related injuries.
Texas law gives you two years from the date of injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. Miss this window, and your right to recover damages could be permanently lost. Certain exceptions exist (such as for minors or delayed discovery), but swift legal action is always in your best interest.
