Understanding Concussion Injury Cases
Common Causes
In San Marcos, concussion injury cases often trace back to conditions on I-35 and near I-35 through San Marcos (heavy congestion, especially near the outlet malls). Local drivers and pedestrians encounter these specific risks when navigating these corridors.
- Rear end car accidents causing the head to whip forward and back
- Slip and fall accidents where the head strikes the ground
- Sports impacts from contact or falling
- Objects falling and striking the head at work
- Bicycle and pedestrian accidents
- Amusement park ride malfunctions
Typical Injuries
Accident victims in San Marcos are typically transported to trauma centers including Central Texas Medical Center (San Marcos). The following injuries are common outcomes of these incidents.
- Persistent headaches and migraines lasting months
- Difficulty concentrating and memory problems
- Dizziness, balance issues, and vertigo
- Sensitivity to light and noise
- Sleep disturbances and fatigue
- Post concussion syndrome with symptoms persisting beyond expected recovery
Establishing Liability
For concussion injury claims filed in Hays, liability often turns on evidence gathered from specific San Marcos locations, including I-35 through San Marcos (heavy congestion, especially near the outlet malls).
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 San Marcos 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.
