The value of a personal injury case involving scarring & disfigurement 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 scarring & disfigurement typically settle in the range of $25,000 - $250,000+ 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.
