Frequently Asked Questions

Texas generally requires personal injury lawsuits to be filed within two years of the date of injury. There are limited exceptions that can shorten or extend this window, so it’s worth confirming your deadline with an attorney as soon as possible after an accident.

How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Texas?

Under Texas’s dram shop laws, an establishment can be held liable for injuries caused by a patron they served while obviously intoxicated to the point of being a danger to themselves or others. These cases require specific evidence about the level of intoxication and what staff observed. An attorney can evaluate whether a dram shop claim applies to your situation.

Can a bar or restaurant be held liable if an intoxicated patron injures someone?

Depending on the severity and permanence of the injury, compensation may include medical expenses, lost income, future earning capacity, and pain and suffering. Back and spine injuries are often disputed by insurers, so thorough medical documentation is critical to the value of the claim. An attorney can help build that record from early in the case.
