Serving Eagle Pass
Eagle Pass is the seat of Maverick County and a major U.S.-Mexico border crossing point, which brings significant commercial truck and cross-border traffic through the city alongside daily local commuting. We represent Eagle Pass and Maverick County residents injured by negligent drivers, unsafe property conditions, and commercial vehicles.
Local Court System
Maverick County is served by two district courts — the 293rd and 365th Judicial District Courts — both based in Eagle Pass, along with a County Court at Law for smaller claims. As with any Texas personal injury claim, most cases must be filed within two years under Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code §16.003, and claims against a governmental entity carry a shorter six-month notice requirement under §101.101.
Emergency Care
Fort Duncan Regional Medical Center, Maverick County's hospital, operates an 18-bed Level IV trauma center capable of stabilizing injured patients before transfer to a higher-level trauma facility for the most severe injuries. Documentation from that initial emergency treatment is often an important part of building an injury claim.
