Medical Center Personal Injury FAQ
I'm a nurse and was hurt in a crash on my way to a shift. Is that a workers' comp claim or an injury claim?
It can be one or both, depending on the facts and your employer's coverage. We'll sort out every source of recovery, including a claim against the at-fault driver.
Your office is near the Medical Center. Can I come in after a hospital appointment?
Yes. Our office at 8200 IH-10 West Frontage Road is close by. Call ahead so we can set a time, or we can meet by phone or video if that's easier.
I'm a healthcare worker hurt while working. Is that a lawsuit or workers' comp?
It depends on your employer's coverage and whether someone outside your employer, like a driver or equipment company, caused the injury. You may have more than one option.
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.
