What Our Clients Say
Why Broken Bone Injuries Are More Than “Just a Fracture”
A broken bone injury can range from a hairline crack to a complex compound fracture that may require multiple surgeries and rehabilitation. Even a "simple" break can impact your quality of life for weeks, months, or longer. According to the CDC, over 7 million bone fractures occur in the U.S. annually, and many are due to preventable accidents like auto collisions or slip and falls.
The true cost of a broken bone often extends far beyond emergency room bills. You may be facing:
Lost wages or income from time off work
Ongoing physical therapy or rehabilitation
Surgical procedures or hardware implants (screws, plates, rods)
Long-term disability or mobility challenges
Chronic pain or arthritis in the affected area
Emotional distress or psychological trauma
Common Accidents That Lead to Bone Fractures
At Carrollton Injury Law, we represent clients across Texas who have suffered broken bones in a wide variety of accidents caused by negligence or wrongdoing, including:
Auto Accidents
Car crashes are a leading cause of orthopedic trauma. High-speed impacts can cause broken ribs, legs, arms, hips, or even spinal fractures. Whether you were injured as a driver, passenger, or pedestrian, you may be entitled to compensation.
Slip and Fall Accidents
Falls on unsafe premises—like slick grocery store floors, broken stairs, or poorly lit walkways—can lead to fractured wrists, hips, or ankles. Older adults are especially vulnerable.
Workplace Accidents
Construction workers and laborers frequently suffer broken bones from falls, machinery, or falling objects. We work with clients to explore all available avenues for compensation, including third-party liability claims.
Motorcycle and Bicycle Accidents
With less protection than cars, riders are at high risk of bone fractures from even minor collisions or being thrown from a bike.
Dog Bites and Animal Attacks
Fractures can occur during a fall caused by an aggressive dog or while fending off an attack.
Premises Liability Injuries
Unsafe environments—such as amusement parks, swimming pools, or apartment complexes—may create hazards leading to fractures. Property owners have a legal duty to maintain a reasonably safe environment.
Types of Bone Fractures We Handle
Our firm has experience handling personal injury claims involving a wide range of fracture types, such as:
Closed Fractures: Bone breaks without piercing the skin
Open (Compound) Fractures: Bone breaks through the skin, increasing infection risk
Comminuted Fractures: Bone shatters into three or more pieces
Greenstick Fractures: Incomplete fractures common in children
Compression Fractures: Often affecting the spine
Hairline or Stress Fractures: Small cracks caused by repetitive motion or minor trauma
Displaced vs. Non-displaced Fractures: Whether the bone fragments remain aligned
Each fracture is unique—and so is your recovery. That’s why we take a personalized approach to every case we handle.

FAQs About Broken Bone Injury Claims
How much is my broken bone injury claim worth?
Every case is different. Factors like the type of fracture, recovery time, lost wages, medical bills, and impact on your daily life will influence the value of your claim. We pursue maximum compensation based on the full scope of your losses.
How long do I have to file a claim in Texas?
In Texas, the statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is two years from the date of the accident. However, it’s best to contact an attorney as soon as possible to preserve evidence and protect your rights.
What if I was partially at fault for the accident?
Texas follows a modified comparative negligence rule. As long as you were less than 51% at fault, you may still recover damages—but your compensation could be reduced based on your percentage of fault.
Will I have to go to court?
Many broken bone injury claims are settled out of court. But if the insurance company refuses to offer a fair settlement, we are prepared to litigate aggressively on your behalf.
Can I afford a lawyer?
Yes. At Carrollton Injury Law, we work on a contingency fee basis. That means you owe us nothing unless we recover money for you.
