Our team has focused on representing oil industry workers injured on the job and has extraordinary experience in every area of oil and gas injuries — in Texas and oil states across the U.S.

We team with you and your family to find justice and full compensation for your physical injuries, lost income, pain and stress, and other damages. 

The key to our success is identifying all responsible parties. In all cases, multiple parties may be at fault; this factor is often crucial in securing a much higher recovery in cases of workplace injuries, trucking accident injuries, and more. 

How Long Do I Have to File a Personal Injury Claim in Texas?

According to the Texas Civil Practice & Remedies Code section 16.003, the statute of limitations for personal injury cases in the state of Texas is two years. All injury victims have a time limit on how long they have to file a personal injury claim before they lose their right to do so. This time limit is set on a state by state basis and is called the statute of limitations.

More specifically, this means you have two years from the date your injury happened to file your claim, or you will lose your right to file along with your right to pursue compensation. It’s important to note that there are exceptions that can lengthen or shorten this time limit. An experienced attorney can inform you of how long you have to file depending on the specifics of your case. The most notable exceptions include:

• If the injury victim was a minor at the time of the accident 
• If the injury victim was under a legal mental disability 
• If the alleged negligent party leaves the state before a claim can be filed

The statute of limitations has a big impact on your ability to file a claim so it’s important to speak to am attorney about the specifics of your case as soon as you can.
