Types of personal injury cases

Most personal injury lawsuits fall under the two categories listed below:

Negligence means the person who caused the injury did not do it intentionally. However, their carelessness led to the injury. Most car accidents are the result of negligence.

Intentional torts, as the name implies, happens when a person intends to commit a wrongful act. Many times an intentional tort is punishable under criminal law as well, such as when assault, battery, or any type of physical abuse occurs.

If you are considering filing a personal injury lawsuit due to the negligent or intentionally harmful actions of someone else, contact an attorney who understands Texas injury law.
