What compensation is available in a personal injury case in Texas?

In Texas, injury claimants may pursue two main categories of damages:

• Economic damages: Medical bills, future medical care, rehabilitation, lost wages, reduced earning capacity, and property damage.
• Non-economic damages: Physical pain, emotional distress, mental anguish, and reduced quality of life.

In limited situations involving especially reckless or intentional behavior, punitive damages may be available to address that conduct, subject to statutory limits. Your attorney will look at the full impact of your injuries and financial losses when determining what to seek.
