Balcones Heights Personal Injury FAQ
I got a ticket after a crash in Balcones Heights. Does that mean I can't recover?
Not necessarily. A ticket isn't a final decision about fault, and Texas law allows recovery as long as you weren't more than 50% responsible. Talk to a lawyer before you pay it.
I was hit while walking to a bus stop in Balcones Heights. What should I do?
Get medical care, write down the location and time, and gather witness information. Pedestrians have strong rights, and a free case review can explain your options.
I fell at a shopping center or apartment complex. Is that a personal injury case?
It can be, if the property owner knew or should have known about a dangerous condition and didn't fix it or warn you. The details matter.
How long do I have to file an injury claim in Texas?
For most Texas personal injury cases, the deadline is two years from the date of the injury. Some claims, especially against a city or government entity, have much shorter notice deadlines. The sooner you call, the more we can do.
