How Long Do I Have to File a Personal Injury Claim?
Due to the complexities of personal injuries, the State of California has statutes of limitations set for the varying accident types. According to Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code section 16.003 the statute of limitations for personal injury cases in Texas is two years. This means you have two years to file your claim or you will most likely lose your legal right to pursue compensation. While there are ways to extend the statute of limitations, you must meet specific requirements predetermined by the state of Texas. Victims of personal injuries may benefit from consulting a skilled personal injury attorney who can advise victims of their opportunities for financial recovery and what important steps should be taken. Contact our firm to find out how the statute of limitations can affect your case.
