Common Personal Injury Cases in Arlington
Arlington’s commuter traffic, entertainment district, and large events lead to a wide range of injury claims:
- Car accidents on I-30 and busy city arterials
- Truck accidents involving freight moving through the Metroplex
- Pedestrian accidents around AT&T Stadium and other event venues
- Motorcycle accidents caused by drivers who fail to see riders
- Drunk-driving crashes after games and nights out
- Slip and falls in stores, hotels, and parking garages
- Wrongful death claims after a fatal accident
What an Arlington Injury Claim Can Include
Texas law lets you seek economic damages, such as medical bills and lost wages, and non-economic damages, such as pain and mental anguish. Each case depends on proving negligence.
Texas follows modified comparative fault. Your award is reduced by your percentage of fault, and you recover nothing if you are more than 50% responsible. Expect insurers to argue you share the blame; evidence gathered early helps answer that.
If you were seriously hurt, the trauma centers that commonly treat Arlington crash victims include Medical City Arlington, a state-designated Level II trauma center, and Texas Health Arlington Memorial Hospital, a Level III trauma center.

Arlington Personal Injury FAQs
Do I need an Arlington personal injury lawyer located inside Arlington?
No. What matters is a lawyer who knows Tarrant County courts and Texas injury law. Our Bedford office serves Arlington clients, and we can meet by phone or video if travel is hard after an injury. Your case is filed in Tarrant County either way.
How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Arlington?
Texas generally gives you two years from the date of injury to file a lawsuit, under Civil Practice and Remedies Code §16.003. Claims against the City of Arlington or another government body can require written notice within six months or less, so act early.
What if I was injured in a crash after a game or event in Arlington?
Event traffic, crowds, and drinking raise the risk of crashes and pedestrian injuries. If a driver was drunk, a bar or venue that overserved them may also be responsible under Texas dram shop law. Save tickets, receipts, and photos that show where you were.
How much does a Arlington personal injury lawyer cost?
We work on a contingency fee. You pay nothing upfront and owe no attorney's fees unless we recover money for you. Our fee will never exceed your recovery, and we put the exact terms in writing before any work begins on your case.
