Overview
Dallas Personal Injury Attorney Serving Dallas County
Texas Civil Practice & Remedies Code §16.003 sets a two-year statute of limitations for most personal injury claims, running from the date of the injury.
Our Dallas personal injury team represents clients across Dallas, Tarrant, Collin, Denton, Rockwall, and Kaufman Counties, bringing plain-language guidance to a process that can otherwise feel overwhelming.
Key Facts
- Texas follows a modified comparative fault rule (Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code §33.001) — an injured person can generally still recover damages unless they are found more than 50% responsible for the accident.
- Dallas is served by major freight corridors (I-35E, I-30, I-20, US-75), and Dallas County consistently reports among the highest crash volumes in North Texas according to TxDOT data.
- Texas is an 'at-fault' insurance state, meaning the responsible driver's liability coverage — not just your own policy — is generally the first source of compensation.

Personal Injury FAQ
How long do I have to file a Dallas injury claim?
Texas generally gives injured people two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit, per Civil Practice & Remedies Code §16.003.
Certain claims — such as those against a government entity — have much shorter notice deadlines, sometimes as short as six months, so it’s important to speak with an attorney promptly after an accident.
Do I need to see a doctor even for minor injuries?
Yes. Prompt medical evaluation both protects your health and creates the medical record insurance companies expect to see before taking a claim seriously.
Gaps in treatment are one of the most common reasons insurers dispute the value of an otherwise legitimate injury claim, even when the injury is real.
Can I still recover damages if I was partly at fault?
Yes, under Texas’s modified comparative fault rule you can generally still recover damages as long as you are not found more than 50% responsible for the accident.
Your recovery is reduced by your percentage of fault — for example, a jury finding you 20% at fault would reduce your award by 20% — which makes clear evidence of the other driver’s fault important.
