We connect injured Texans with proven car accident attorneys in 60 seconds — no cost, no commitment, no runaround.
A car accident can flip your life upside down in an instant. Medical bills pile up. Your car is totaled. You're missing work. The other driver's insurance company is already working against you — and they have lawyers. You shouldn't have to fight alone.
Most accident victims don't know their rights. They accept lowball offers. They miss deadlines. They trust the wrong people. Every day you wait, evidence disappears and your options narrow. You deserve someone in your corner who knows Texas law and knows how to fight.
In Texas, you generally have 2 years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. This is called the statute of limitations. Missing this deadline typically means losing your right to pursue compensation entirely. Don't wait — reach out now.
Nothing upfront. Attorneys in the HurtMatch network work on a contingency fee basis. That means they only get paid if they recover compensation for you. No fee unless you win — period.
First, make sure you're safe and call 911. Get a police report — it matters later. Seek medical attention even if you feel fine; some injuries appear days later. Document everything: photos, witness information, insurance details. Then contact HurtMatch to get connected with an attorney before you talk to any insurance company.
Every case is different. Some settle in a few months; others that go to trial can take a year or more. Your attorney will give you a realistic timeline based on your specific situation, the severity of your injuries, and how the insurance company responds.
You may still have options. Texas law allows you to pursue a claim through your own uninsured or underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage if you have it. An attorney can review your policy and identify every available avenue for recovery. Getting matched costs you nothing — let an expert assess your case.
Texas injury law has unique rules that differ sharply from other states. Knowing them is the difference between a fair outcome and pennies on the dollar.
Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code §16.003 gives you exactly 2 years from the date of injury to file suit. Miss it and your case is over — there is no extension, no exception for "I didn't know I could sue." Wrongful death claims have the same 2-year window from the date of death.
Texas uses Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code §33.001. You can recover damages as long as you are 50% or less at fault. If you are 51%+ at fault, you recover nothing. Insurance companies know this rule and aggressively try to push fault percentages above 50%. An experienced attorney pushes back.
Texas caps non-economic damages in medical malpractice cases at $250,000 per defendant (Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code §74.301). There are no caps in standard auto, premises, or product cases — making attorney negotiation skill the deciding factor in your final number.
