Our legal team brings decades of experience and a long-standing track record of results across Texas, including right here in Plano.
A personal injury case arises when one party’s negligence, recklessness, or intentional misconduct causes harm to another. In Plano and throughout Texas, common causes of personal injury include:
Your injury doesn’t have to be catastrophic to warrant legal action. If another party is liable, Texas law gives you the right to pursue compensation.
Personal injury claims hinge on the principle of negligence. Texas courts require the injured party to establish four key elements:
Texas uses a modified comparative fault rule. If you are less than 51% responsible, you can still recover damages. However, your compensation will be reduced in proportion to your share of fault.
Depending on the circumstances, you may be entitled to economic and non-economic damages such as:
| Damage Type | Examples |
|---|---|
| Medical Bills | Hospital visits, rehabilitation, prescriptions |
| Lost Wages | Missed income, future earning capacity |
| Pain and Suffering | Chronic pain, emotional trauma, disfigurement |
| Property Damage | Repairs or replacement of damaged belongings |
| Loss of Enjoyment | Inability to engage in daily activities or hobbies |
| Punitive Damages | In rare cases involving gross negligence |
Every case is unique, and a detailed investigation is key to determining what you’re owed.
