How long do I have to file a claim in Austin, Texas?
Two years for most cases under Texas law — sometimes less, with special rules for children. In Texas, most injury and medical-malpractice claims must be filed within two years (Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code §16.003; §74.251), and medical-malpractice cases require a detailed expert report within 120 days (§74.351). Texas also caps non-economic damages in medical-malpractice cases at $250,000 per provider (§74.301); economic damages like medical bills and lost income are not capped. Because evidence disappears quickly, contact us as soon as possible.
