Catastrophic Injury Attorneys in Frisco

Texas does not use a single statutory definition for catastrophic injury, but the term generally refers to injuries that result in permanent disability, long-term impairment, or significantly reduced quality of life. Common examples include traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, severe burns, and amputations. These cases typically involve much higher damages than standard personal injury claims because of their long-term impact.

In most cases, Texas law gives injury victims two years from the date of the injury to file a lawsuit. Waiting too long can permanently bar your ability to recover damages. If you or a family member has suffered a serious injury, it is important to speak with an attorney as soon as possible so that evidence can be preserved and your options can be assessed.

Recoverable damages typically include current and future medical expenses, lost wages and reduced earning capacity, physical pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life. In cases involving gross negligence, punitive damages may also be available. The full value of a catastrophic injury claim is often significantly higher than what an insurance company will offer without a fight.

Many cases settle before trial, often during or after the discovery process. However, insurance companies and corporate defendants pay more attention when they know the opposing counsel is genuinely prepared to try the case. Our attorneys have trial experience in Texas courts and are not afraid to take a case all the way when a fair settlement is not on the table.
