Establishing Liability
For concussion injury claims filed in Hays, liability often turns on evidence gathered from specific Dripping Springs locations, including US-290 corridor between Dripping Springs and Oak Hill.
Insurance companies routinely minimize concussion claims because the injury does not show up on standard CT scans or MRIs. Building a strong concussion case requires neuropsychological testing that documents cognitive deficits, symptom journals maintained by the patient, and testimony from treating neurologists. Demonstrating the impact of post concussion symptoms on the victim ability to work, parent, and enjoy life is essential to securing fair compensation.
Relevant Texas Law
Residents of Dripping Springs pursue these claims under the same Texas statutes that govern all state personal injury actions.
Texas courts recognize post concussion syndrome as a compensable injury, and plaintiffs may recover damages for ongoing symptoms even when initial imaging appears normal. The two year statute of limitations under Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code Section 16.003 begins running from the date of the accident, not the date of diagnosis. Texas Pattern Jury Charge 30.01 allows juries to award damages for physical pain, mental anguish, and physical impairment resulting from concussions.
