What is a Personal Injury Claim?
Personal injury is an area of law where the plaintiff was hurt by an act of careless or recklessness by another person. Victims of a car wreck can recover from the at-fault driver their damages, including medical expenses in the past and future, lost wages in the past and future, and damages for their pain and suffering.
If the at-fault driver is underinsured or uninsured, you may be able to recover against your insurance if you have UM/UIM coverage. In some cases, insurance companies will dispute and deny claims. You can choose to fight back by hiring a personal injury attorney to file suit contesting your insurance company’s decision.

How Can I File a Personal Injury Claim in Texas?
Your first step is to receive the medical attention and care needed for your injuries. It’s highly recommended you document the accident, your injuries, and possible eye-witness statements if possible. After you have received immediate medical attention, notify your insurance company.
Consult legal representation before agreeing to any settlements or providing a recorded statement to the insurance company. All your statements can be used against you in court. This includes statements made at the scene of the accident, to the police or to the person who injured you.
In addition to helping you seek necessary medical care, your attorney can present your demand to the insurance company and negotiate a settlement. The demand letter outlines the liability facts of your case, details your injuries and requests compensation.
While most personal injury claims are settled out of court, the attorneys at LeMaster and Ahmed will file suit and take the case to trial if necessary.
How Long Do I Have to File a Personal Injury Claim in Texas?
A personal injury claim also has a statute of limitations, which is a time limit for plaintiffs to file a claim. If you do not file a claim before the expiration date, your claim may be barred.
In Texas, a plaintiff has up to two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury claim. It is, therefore, important to promptly seek legal representation before your claims are time barred.
