Personal injury law is a legal term referring to lawsuits brought by a personal injury lawyer on behalf of those who are injured by another person or company’s behavior. A personal injury attorney files a lawsuit in tort law.
Formally, a tort occurs when a person breaches a duty imposed upon them by law, and his or her breach of that duty causes an injury to another person. In plain English, a tort is best understood when defined by example. Common examples of a tort include:
Texas tort law serves the following purposes:
If you were injured in a motor vehicle accident caused by negligence, our Dallas car accident attorneys are here to help. At Bush & Bush Law Group, we use the legal system to file personal injury lawsuits and secure compensation for injuries from various accidents, including commercial trucking incidents, automotive collisions, and slip-and-falls.
According to Gregory v. Chohan, 670 S.W.3d 546, 556 (Tex. 2023), the compensation received by a person who successfully brings a personal injury lawsuit are known as compensatory damages. The purpose of compensatory damages in these lawsuits is to compensate an injured plaintiff by placing them in the same position they would have been in had they not been injured.
Texas law divides these compensatory damages into two categories: (1) general damages & (2) special damages. At Bush & Bush, our attorneys know that understanding whether damages are considered general or special is critical to achieving the best possible recovery for our clients.
General damages, also known as direct damages, are damages incurred by the injured person that are a necessary consequence of the wrongful act. General damages are awarded for injuries that are not quantifiable in dollar amounts or are incapable of monetary valuation. General damages are compensation awarded for non-economic injuries such as injuries to a person’s character or reputation, injuries to the person’s feelings, and mental suffering or anguish.
Special damages, which are also referred to as consequential damages, are damages resulting from the bad actor’s wrongful act. There are specific rules pertaining to special damages:
Special damages generally include things such as:
41.003 of the Texas Code allows injured people to recover punitive damages under appropriate circumstances. Punitive damages, which are sometimes referred to as exemplary damages, are awarded in addition to compensatory damages as a punishment. Punitive damages are generally only available in instances of gross negligence on the part of the bad actor, and they are capped under the statute.
At Bush & Bush, our attorneys go above and beyond the services ordinarily provided to injured people by their attorneys because we understand an injury’s impact on our client is extraordinary. To that end, our Dallas personal injury lawyer provides the client-focused service of a small firm and the experience of a big firm.
Our attorneys will be your trusted counsel from start to finish, for they believe it is imperative to provide full transparency to you throughout the lifecycle of your case. Once you hire us, we are no more than a text message away to provide you with an update on your case.
Most cases do not reach trial but rest assured that our Dallas personal injury attorney will be prepared to present your story to the jury and show them the science behind it using the best experts and scientific evidence available. The results of this aggressive style of representation show up in our proven litigation track record: insurance companies know to take your claim seriously during settlement negotiations when you hire our attorneys.
This aggressive representation starts at your free consultation. High-quality legal services are expensive, but you only pay us if we win your case.
At Bush & Bush Law Group, we understand that you are coming to us in one of the most difficult moments of your life.

Our firm, including experienced Dallas truck accident attorneys, Dallas car accident lawyers, and Dallas slip and fall lawyers, can assist clients with personal loans to help them manage financially until they are able to return to work.
As an injury victim, you may need significant medical care before you are able to return to work. We can help you find access to state-of-the-art medical treatment and diagnostic testing.

If, for any reason, you cannot procure transportation to your medical appointment then we will provide transportation to and from that medical appointment.
Generally, our attorneys begin investigating your case as soon as we become your attorneys to preserve evidence. If an investigation is not launched quickly then there is a risk that evidence will be lost or destroyed or that witness’s memories will fade as time passes. To that end, collecting physical evidence and recording information from our interview with you and other witnesses as soon as possible.
A shortlist of the tasks our attorneys at Bush & Bush will perform to investigate your case would look something like this:
Suffering a severe injury can be shocking and disorienting. It can be difficult to figure out what to do after you have suffered an injury, but here are some generalized best practices.
The first—and most important—thing to do after you are injured is to get to safety. Leave the dangerous situation in a calm, orderly manner to the extent possible. Nothing is more important than your safety and the safety of the other people involved in the injury-causing event. To the extent that you are able, try to abate the danger of the situation.
If your injury is caused by an automotive wreck or a trucking accident, report the incident to law enforcement after getting to a safe place. Once they arrive, law enforcement will create a report regarding what happened at the scene. It is imperative that they find a location of safety at the scene and remain there until the police arrive. It is illegal to leave the scene of an accident in Texas and in most other jurisdictions. Fully cooperate with law enforcement when they arrive.
Once you have reached safety, try to gather what evidence you can from the scene of the injury. You can do this by:
If necessary, seek prompt medical attention from a professional to have yourself evaluated as soon as possible. Tell them what happened to cause your injury. Describe all of the symptoms you have experienced due to the injury, sparing no details. Your symptoms may progress or change as time passes from the incident, and you should continue to keep your doctor updated about them. To ensure that your injuries are properly documented, keep a medical diary journaling:
Seeing your physician after the incident is important even if you do not feel immediate pain. Some injuries may not be instantly recognizable in the first few days after your injury. Your physician is the person best situated to diagnose and treat any injuries of which you are not yet aware.
Do not talk about the incident that caused your injury to anyone. While you might be tempted to discuss what happened, talking about the details of what happened could be damaging to your case down the road. For that reason, it is best that you speak only to your medical professional and trusted attorney about your injury and its cause after the fact.
Often, insurance companies will seek to interview injured people after their insured causes someone to be seriously injured. Do not give a statement to the representative of an insurance company or any attorney other than one representing you. The statements made in that interview are often used against the injured person in any subsequent legal proceeding.
Remember: it is your right to refuse their request for a statement. It is usually best for you to exercise that right. You should only give such a statement after consulting with your attorney.
Finally, you should retain legal counsel to bring your claim against the person who injured you once you have appropriately healed. Your decision as to which lawyer to hire is a vital one, but if you are going to seek compensation for your injuries then it will best serve your case to retain counsel sooner rather than later. By hiring an attorney quickly, your lawyer can begin investigating and strategizing your case to ensure you get the maximum compensation possible.
Dallas personal injury lawyers handle a wide range of cases, including car accidents, truck accidents, slip and falls, medical malpractice, workplace injuries, and wrongful death claims. Our firm focuses on representing victims of negligence to help them recover compensation.
We work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing upfront. We only get paid if we win your case, taking a percentage of the settlement or verdict. This ensures you can pursue justice without worrying about legal fees.
You may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, emotional distress, and more. If the defendant’s conduct was particularly reckless, punitive damages might also be available.
In Texas, the statute of limitations for most personal injury cases is two years from the date of the accident. However, exceptions may apply depending on the case, so it’s crucial to consult a personal injury attorney in Dallas as soon as possible.

Yes, under Texas’ comparative negligence law, you can still file a claim if you were partially at fault, as long as you are not more than 50% responsible for the accident. However, your compensation may be reduced by your percentage of fault.
