Our San Marcos personal injury attorneys are prepared to represent you in many types of cases, including those involving:
- Car accidents. When you suffer injuries in a car accident, you may have a personal injury claim if the collision was caused by another driver’s negligence. All drivers owe other people on the road a duty of care when they get behind the wheel. To collect damages from an at-fault driver, however, you must be able to prove that the negligent driver was primarily responsible for causing the crash. This can be accomplished by demonstrating that the other driver failed to behave as a reasonably prudent person would have in similar circumstances. For example, if the driver was excessively speeding, texting while driving, or breaking some other traffic law that led directly to the collision, then they can likely be held liable for any resulting injuries.
- Truck accidents. Motor vehicle accidents involving trucks can be especially devastating due to the sheer size and weight of these mammoth vehicles. Trucks are often several times heavier than cars, and their larger size means that they take up more space on the road. These and other factors that truck accidents may result in greater injuries than a typical car accident. For example, since trucks take longer to come to a stop, they have much higher rates of rear-end collisions than cars do. These kinds of accidents tend to involve greater forces and velocities which can result in more serious injuries for those inside the smaller vehicle. Furthermore, liability in a truck accident may not be as straightforward, as multiple parties – including those other than the truck driver – may ultimately be responsible for your injuries. A prompt, thorough investigation facilitated by an attorney is necessary for determining liability in these high-stakes scenarios.
- Wrongful death. Wrongful death is a legal term used to describe someone who dies as the result of another's negligence or intentional act. In Texas, a wrongful death lawsuit can be filed by qualifying parties when an individual is killed due to the negligence or malicious behavior of another person, organization, or entity. The purpose of this type of lawsuit is to seek compensation for the survivors of the deceased person, such as their spouse, children, and/or parents.

In Texas, you generally have two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury claim. This may sound like a long time, but it is in your best interest to start the legal process as quickly as possible.
