Common Causes

  • Motorcycle accidents where the rider slides across the pavement
  • Bicycle accidents caused by negligent drivers
  • Pedestrians knocked down and dragged by vehicles
  • Skateboard and scooter accidents on public roads
  • Being ejected from a vehicle during a rollover crash
  • Construction zone accidents where workers fall on rough surfaces

Typical Injuries

  • Deep abrasions removing multiple layers of skin
  • Embedded gravel and debris requiring surgical debridement
  • Infection complications from open wounds
  • Permanent scarring and skin discoloration
  • Nerve damage in areas where skin was stripped away
  • Skin grafts needed for severe full thickness road rash

How We Prove Liability

Road rash cases require detailed medical documentation including wound measurements, photographs at each stage of treatment, and records of all debridement and surgical procedures. Insurance companies often try to categorize road rash as a minor scrape, but severe road rash involves extensive tissue loss that can require skin grafts and leave permanent scars. Connecting the road rash to the at fault driver negligence follows the same framework as any motor vehicle accident claim.

Texas Legal Framework

Texas law allows full recovery for road rash injuries including wound care, debridement, skin graft surgery, scar revision, and the permanent disfigurement that results. Under Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code, disfigurement is a separate compensable element that the jury may value independently from medical expenses and pain. The two year statute of limitations applies, running from the date of the accident.

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.
