Personal Injury Claims – Including Divorce Cases

At Bosworth Law Firm, we represent clients in a wide range of personal injury cases, including car accidents, 18-wheeler crashes, workplace injuries, and other situations where negligence has caused harm. We understand how devastating these events can be, both physically and financially, and we fight aggressively to secure the compensation our clients need for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and long-term recovery. In addition to traditional personal injury claims, our firm also has the unique experience of pursuing personal injury claims within divorce proceedings.

Texas law recognizes that if your spouse’s wrongful conduct such as domestic violence, assault, contracting STD from your spouse or other intentional harm has caused injury, those claims can and should be brought as part of your divorce case. This ensures you are not only protected in the division of property and custody decisions, but also fully compensated for the harm you’ve endured. Whether your case involves an accident caused by a third party or a personal injury claim against your spouse in divorce, we are committed to standing by your side and protecting your rights every step of the way.

What Is a Personal Injury Claim in a Divorce?

Most people know that personal injury claims cover situations like car accidents, 18-wheeler crashes, or workplace injuries. But what many don’t realize is that in Texas divorces, you may also have a valid personal injury claim against your spouse if their wrongful conduct caused you harm. For example: If your spouse assaulted you or caused intentional physical harm, you may have a compensable claim. If your spouse’s reckless or negligent actions (such as drunk driving) caused you injury, you may also have a claim. These claims are different from the normal division of community property. They are designed to compensate you personally for the harm you suffered. In some cases, personal injury damages may be treated as your separate property rather than split in the divorce.

Why Does It Matter?

Financial Protection – A personal injury award or settlement can ensure you receive resources to cover medical care, therapy, lost wages, and the impact of trauma.

Impact on Property Division – Texas courts consider these claims separately from the division of marital property. This means you may be entitled to more than just a “50/50” division if personal injury damages are involved.

Accountability – Bringing a personal injury claim in your divorce holds your spouse accountable for harm they caused, rather than letting it be overlooked in the divorce process.

How We Help At Bosworth Law Firm, we understand the overlap between family law and personal injury law, and we know how to strategically raise and protect these claims. We investigate, gather evidence, and fight to ensure that your divorce case fully accounts for both property rights and injury compensation.
