Serving Injured People Across Hays County
Hays County sits on one of the busiest stretches of Interstate 35 in the state, between Austin and San Antonio, and its rapid growth has brought more traffic and more collisions. From our Austin office, we represent injury victims throughout the county, including San Marcos, Kyle, Buda, Dripping Springs, Wimberley, and Mountain City. Wherever in Hays County your injury occurred, we can help you understand your options.
Much of the county’s crash risk is concentrated on I-35 and on corridors like US 290, Ranch Road 12, and FM 1626, where commuter traffic, commercial trucks, and weekend travel to the Hill Country converge. Crashes on these roads often involve serious injuries and multiple vehicles.
Where Hays County Injury Cases Are Handled
Personal injury lawsuits arising in Hays County are generally handled in the county’s courts in San Marcos, the county seat. Many claims, however, are resolved through negotiation with the insurance company and never require a filing. We prepare every case as if it may go to trial — an approach that strengthens your negotiating position and signals to insurers that we are ready to litigate if a fair settlement is not offered.

LGR Law Firm represents injury victims throughout Hays County — San Marcos, Kyle, Buda, Dripping Springs, and beyond — with cases generally handled in the county courts in San Marcos.

Personal Injury Cases We Handle in Hays County
We handle the full range of personal injury matters for Hays County residents, including car accidents along the I-35 corridor; truck and 18-wheeler accidents; motorcycle accidents; drunk driving accident claims; pedestrian and bicycle accidents; premises liability and slip-and-fall injuries; serious and catastrophic injuries; and wrongful death claims.
Your Rights Under Texas Law
The same statewide rules apply in Hays County. Texas follows a modified comparative negligence rule, so your recovery may be reduced by your percentage of fault, and being found more than 50% at fault can bar recovery entirely. The statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is generally two years from the date of the accident. Acting promptly helps preserve evidence and protects your options. To understand how a claim typically unfolds, see our guide to the personal injury claim process.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a lawyer with an office in Hays County?
No. A local storefront matters far less than whether your attorney knows the area, understands how cases proceed in the county’s courts, and has the resources and willingness to take on the insurance companies. From our Austin office, we regularly represent clients throughout Hays County and handle the investigation, communication, and any litigation for you. A free consultation lets you evaluate the fit with no obligation.
Where would my Hays County injury case be filed?
Personal injury lawsuits arising in Hays County are generally handled in the county’s courts in San Marcos, the county seat. Many claims are resolved through negotiation and never require a lawsuit, but we prepare every case as if it may be filed and tried, which tends to produce stronger settlement offers. We handle the procedural details so you can focus on healing.
How long do I have to file an injury claim in Hays County?
Texas generally allows two years from the date of the accident to file most personal injury claims, though specific circumstances can affect the deadline. Acting sooner is wise because evidence like vehicle data and surveillance footage can disappear and witness memories fade. Early legal guidance helps preserve the proof your claim relies on.
What does it cost to hire LGR for a Hays County case?
The initial consultation is free and carries no obligation. Personal injury cases are typically handled on a contingency basis, which generally means you do not pay attorney’s fees unless we recover compensation for you. This makes experienced representation accessible regardless of your financial situation after an accident.
