Average Settlement Range
$25,000 - $200,000
The value of a personal injury case involving knee injury depends on several factors under Texas law: the severity of the injury, the cost of treatment, whether surgery was required, the duration of recovery, impact on your ability to work, and long-term prognosis. Texas allows recovery of both economic damages (medical bills, lost wages) and non-economic damages (pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life). There is no cap on compensatory damages in most Texas personal injury cases except medical malpractice.
Cases involving knee injury typically settle in the range of $25,000 - $200,000 in Texas, though cases with surgery, permanent impairment, or significant impact on daily life can exceed these averages. The two-year statute of limitations applies, so it is important to pursue your claim promptly.
