Common Causes

  • Severe traumatic brain injuries from car and truck accidents
  • Near drowning incidents at pools or natural bodies of water
  • Drug overdoses resulting from medical malpractice or product defects
  • Anesthesia errors during surgical procedures
  • Carbon monoxide poisoning from defective appliances or equipment
  • Oxygen deprivation during birth causing infant coma

Typical Injuries

  • Prolonged unconsciousness requiring ICU level care
  • Brain damage worsening during the comatose state
  • Muscle atrophy and joint contractures from immobility
  • Pneumonia and respiratory infections
  • Cognitive and physical deficits upon waking
  • Permanent vegetative state in the most severe cases

How We Prove Liability

Coma cases require a next friend or legal guardian to pursue the claim on behalf of the incapacitated victim. Medical records documenting the severity of the brain injury and the level of unconsciousness are critical evidence. Because the victim cannot testify about their own experience, the legal team must rely heavily on medical expert testimony, family accounts, and objective medical data to establish both liability and the full extent of damages.

Texas Legal Framework

Texas Rules of Civil Procedure Rule 44 allows a next friend to initiate a lawsuit on behalf of a person who is incapacitated. Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code Section 16.001 may toll the statute of limitations during periods of legal incapacity. Future care costs for coma patients can reach millions of dollars, and Texas courts allow detailed life care plan testimony to establish these damages for the jury.

Frequently Asked Questions

At Medina & Medina, we work on a contingency fee basis. This means you pay nothing upfront and no fees unless we win your case. Our fee is a percentage of your recovery.

In Texas, you generally have two years from the date of your injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. However, there are exceptions that may shorten or extend this deadline, so it’s important to consult with an attorney as soon as possible.

You may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, and in some cases, punitive damages. The amount depends on the specific circumstances of your case.

While you’re not required to have a lawyer, having experienced legal representation typically results in higher settlements. Insurance companies have teams of lawyers working for them, and you deserve someone advocating for your interests too.

Compensation depends on the severity of your injuries, medical expenses, lost wages, and impact on your life. Contact Medina & Medina for a free evaluation of your case.

Helpful evidence includes police reports, medical records, photos of the scene, witness statements, and insurance information. Our team will help you gather all necessary documentation.
