Personal Injury Cases We Handle in New Braunfels
We represent injured individuals and families across a wide range of personal injury matters. Comal County sees serious accidents from many sources, and we’ve handled all of them.
- Car and Truck Accidents: I-35 through Comal County carries heavy commercial traffic, and collisions involving 18-wheelers frequently cause catastrophic injuries. Michael Mathis has handled complex truck accident litigation throughout his career, and we build these cases with trial in mind.
- Workplace and Oilfield Injuries: From refinery accidents to construction site injuries, we pursue the full range of damages available under Texas law, including future medical costs and lost earning capacity.
- Maritime and Offshore Accidents: Our South Texas roots give us a working understanding of offshore injury claims and the federal maritime law framework that governs them.
- Premises Liability: Slip and falls, inadequate security, and dangerous property conditions are actionable when negligence caused your injury.
- Product Liability: When a defective product causes injury, manufacturers and distributors can be held responsible.
- Catastrophic Injuries and Wrongful Death: Traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, severe burns, and amputations demand attorneys with the resources to document lifetime damages and pursue those claims at trial. When an injury proves fatal, we pursue wrongful death claims on behalf of surviving family members.
Blake Brunkenhoefer is licensed in Texas, Colorado, Arizona, and New Mexico, with admission before all U.S. district courts in those states and the U.S. Supreme Court. That breadth of licensure reflects the scope of high-stakes litigation we’re prepared to handle.

How a Personal Injury Claim Works in Comal County
Personal injury cases in New Braunfels are heard in Comal County District Courts, including the 22nd Judicial District Court. Before you decide how to proceed, it’s worth understanding how Texas law shapes your claim.
Key rules governing your claim:
- Statute of Limitations: Texas gives you two years from the date of your accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. Missing that deadline typically forfeits your right to recovery, which is why early action matters.
- Modified Comparative Fault: Texas follows a modified comparative fault rule. Your recovery is reduced by your percentage of fault, and if you’re found more than 50% at fault, you can’t recover. If you’re 30% at fault, your damages are reduced by 30%.
- Recoverable Damages: A successful claim can recover medical expenses, lost income, future medical costs, pain and suffering, and, in wrongful death cases, losses specific to surviving family members.
Our process begins with a free consultation and a thorough investigation. We build the evidentiary record your case needs for trial, not just for a settlement negotiation. That preparation can put real pressure on insurance companies and defense teams when it counts.
