An anoxic brain injury can disrupt a person’s life in ways no one expects. Oxygen loss can affect how a person thinks, moves, and interacts with the world. The shock of that change comes with medical questions, financial strain, and uncertainty about what steps to take next. If you are trying to understand what happened and whether someone’s negligence played a role, speaking with a Houston anoxic brain injury lawyer can relieve some of the pressure you face.
A caring catastrophic injury attorney from Mostyn Law can review medical records, interview witnesses, and engage specialists who understand the injury. Instead of managing deadlines, insurance calls, and legal rules on your own, we can explain your options clearly and help you decide how to move forward.

Each scenario raises different questions about how the injury occurred and who may be legally responsible for it. To clearly understand the situation, our Mostyn Law attorneys look at more than just the medical chart. We may gather:
This information helps explain both how the injury happened and how it will affect your life moving forward. It can also guide decisions about long-term care needs, lost income, and future limitations.
State law has strict time limits for personal injury filings. Under the Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code, most negligence claims require filing within two years. If you wait too long to speak with Houston legal counsel about your claim for a brain injury caused by a lack of oxygen, you risk losing the chance to file a lawsuit altogether.
The state also uses a modified comparative fault rule. Under this system, if a court finds an injured person to be partly responsible for what happened, it can reduce their recovery. If their share of fault reaches 51 percent, they cannot recover damages at all. Our experienced legal representatives can review the facts and challenge efforts to assign fault unfairly.
If an anoxic brain injury has changed your life or the life of someone close to you, you do not need to manage the legal process on your own. Speaking with a Houston anoxic brain injury lawyer at Mostyn Law allows you to learn what rights you have under state law and the appropriate actions to take.
We can review the details of your case carefully, answer your questions, and help you create a plan that protects your interests. If you are ready to talk with one of our attorneys, reach out to us today to schedule a confidential consultation.
