Frequently asked questions

How many firms are listed in Abilene, Texas?

No firms are listed in Abilene, Texas yet. Claims over scald burns, like other burn and fire cases, are routinely litigated statewide rather than city by city, so a firm based elsewhere in Texas can generally take a Abilene case.

How long do I have to file a scald burns lawsuit in Texas?

The Texas statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is 2 years (Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code § 16.003). Claims against a government body usually run on a much shorter separate notice deadline. Missing either one generally ends the claim regardless of its merits, so the filing date matters more than almost any other early decision.

How large is Abilene?

Abilene had an estimated population of 130,501 in 2024 (U.S. Census Bureau Population Estimates Program), across 107 square miles of land — about 1,223 residents per square mile. That is up 4.2% since the 2020 census.
