Do You Have a Case?

Texas’ statute of limitations on wrongful death claims is two years. Failing to file your claim within the two-year deadline will most likely result in the courts dismissing your case before it begins. Act now – contact an attorney before the deadline expires. In general, you might have a wrongful death claim in Texas if what happened to your loved one would have given him or her the ability to file a personal injury lawsuit had he or she survived the injury.
