Tort Claim Review

What is a Tort Claim?

In Texas, tort claims allow individuals to seek compensation for injuries or property damage caused by negligence. When a claim involves a city, county, or other public entity, it is governed by the Texas Tort Claims Act, which limits when and how the government can be sued. Claimants must provide timely written notice with specific details about the incident before filing suit, and strict deadlines apply. Governmental liability is capped by law, and certain immunities remain in place. Because the process is highly procedural, careful compliance with statutory requirements is essential.
