Boerne Personal Injury Attorney for Car & Truck Accidents

Boerne sits directly on I-10, the primary Hill Country trucking corridor connecting to San Antonio roughly 31 miles southeast. Car and truck accidents happen regularly on I-10, on Highway 46, and on local Kendall County roads.

They leave families facing medical bills, lost income, vehicle damage, and legal questions they did not expect.

As a Boerne car accident lawyer and truck injury attorney, Lane Diamond Law serves Kendall County residents who have been injured in collisions caused by another party’s negligence. I handle every case personally and offer free consultations to anyone who wants to understand their options before making a decision.

If you were hurt in an accident near Boerne, you do not have to sort through the legal process alone. Call (210) 900-3259 to talk directly with me about your case.

Personal Injury Attorneys Serving Boerne

Lane Diamond Law represents accident victims across Boerne and Kendall County. The I-10 corridor carries heavy commercial freight traffic through the area.

The volume of large trucks sharing the road with local commuters makes this one of the highest-risk stretches in the Hill Country. TxDOT recorded 70 commercial motor vehicle crashes in Kendall County in 2024 alone, including 3 that were fatal and 5 that produced suspected serious injuries.

These are not abstract statistics. Each one represents a family dealing with injuries, vehicle damage, and an insurance process designed to pay as little as possible.

An attorney who understands this corridor and knows what to request from a trucking company before evidence disappears can change the outcome of those cases.

We serve families in the area from our San Antonio office at 3519 Paesanos Parkway, Suite 100A. There is no Boerne office, but we are available to meet clients where it is convenient for them.

Why Choose Lane Diamond Law for Your Personal Injury Case

I provide personal legal representation on every injury case I handle. When you call, you speak with me, and that does not change as your case moves forward. You will not be handed off to a junior associate or routed through a call center.

Most people we talk to after an accident are not thinking about lawsuits. They are worried about the medical bills, about getting back to work, about whether the insurance company is going to treat them fairly.

We answer those questions first by listening, explaining your options in plain terms, and giving you an honest assessment of where you stand.

We operate on a contingency fee basis, so you pay nothing upfront and owe no legal fees unless we recover compensation for you.

A small caseload allows me to move faster on your case and keep you updated consistently rather than letting weeks go by without contact. If you are ready to talk about what happened, call (210) 900-3259 for a free consultation.

Types of Cases We Handle in Boerne

Lane Diamond Law handles car wrecks, truck collisions, and other personal injury cases across the Boerne area. The type of accident affects who can be held liable and what evidence is needed to prove it.

• Car Wrecks: Distracted driving, impaired driving, and speeding are the leading causes of car accident injuries near Boerne. Rural two-lane roads connecting Kendall County communities carry disproportionate fatality rates compared to urban streets, and even low-speed collisions at local intersections can produce lasting injuries. If you need a Boerne car accident attorney after a collision on a local road or at an intersection, we can evaluate your claim during a free consultation.
• Truck Accidents: Commercial vehicle crashes involve forces that passenger cars are not built to absorb. Liability often extends beyond the driver to the trucking company, the maintenance provider, or the party responsible for loading cargo. Federal motor carrier regulations add a layer of evidence, including electronic logging device data and inspection records, that a standard car accident case does not have.
• Other Injury Claims: We also represent clients injured in premises liability claims, motorcycle accidents, and pedestrian collisions in the Boerne area.

Whether your accident happened on I-10, Highway 46, or a Kendall County back road, the question is the same: did another party’s negligence cause your injury.

How Texas Law Affects Your Personal Injury Case

Texas gives you two years from the date of your injury to file a personal injury lawsuit under Civil Practice and Remedies Code § 16.003. Once that window closes, Texas courts will generally refuse to hear your case, even if the facts are strong.

If more than one party contributed to the accident, Texas applies a modified comparative negligence rule under § 33.001. The statute calls it “proportionate responsibility.” You can still recover compensation as long as you were not more than 50 percent at fault, but your award is reduced by your share of the blame.

If a jury finds you were 20 percent responsible, you would receive 80 percent of the total damages, but above 50 percent, you recover nothing.

Recoverable damages fall into two main categories. Economic damages cover medical expenses, lost wages, loss of future earning capacity, and property damage.

Non-economic damages cover pain and suffering, mental anguish, and loss of enjoyment of life. Texas does not cap non-economic damages in most personal injury cases. The exception is medical malpractice, where non-economic damages are limited to $250,000 per provider.

Every case involves facts this page cannot cover. A consultation is the only way to know how these rules apply to your situation.

What Should You Do After an Accident in Boerne?

The first priority after any accident is getting medical attention. Even if you feel fine at the scene, some injuries do not produce symptoms for hours or days, and a documented medical evaluation creates the foundation of your claim.

For immediate care, Methodist ER Boerne at 134 Menger Springs Road provides freestanding 24/7 emergency services.

Patients with serious trauma, such as spinal injuries or internal bleeding, are typically transported to University Hospital in San Antonio. It is the region’s Level I trauma center, about 30 miles south on I-10.

While you are still at the scene, call law enforcement to file an accident report. If you are able, take photos of the vehicles, the road conditions, any visible injuries, and the surrounding area, and collect names and contact information from witnesses. Do not give a recorded statement to the other driver’s insurance company before speaking with an attorney.

Dealing with injuries and insurance calls at the same time is exhausting, and the insurance company is already building its case before you have even left the hospital. Speaking with an attorney early protects the evidence your case needs and keeps you from making statements that can be used against you later.

The Highway 46 and I-10 Corridor

Highway 46 and I-10 are the two highest-risk corridors for car and truck accidents near Boerne. TxDOT data shows more than 550 crashes on the 12-mile stretch of Highway 46 West since 2016. Those crashes have resulted in 13 deaths and at least 44 serious injuries.

The road is a two-lane highway with no center median, limited shoulders, and multiple blind curves. Bandera County officials have formally declared the corridor “totally inadequate” for its current traffic volume.

I-10 presents a different set of risks. As a primary NAFTA freight corridor, it carries a constant flow of commercial trucks through Kendall County at highway speeds.

Local drivers entering from Highway 46 or frontage roads at lower speeds create the kind of speed differentials that turn routine merges into serious collisions.

TxDOT has announced both short-term and long-term safety improvements for several intersections and high-risk curves along Highway 46, though no completion timeline has been published. If you or a family member was hurt in a crash on either corridor, truck accident attorneys in Boerne can help you understand your options.

Frequently Asked Questions

These are questions that come up regularly when Boerne residents call about an accident case.

Filing Without a Local Attorney

You do not need a Boerne-based lawyer to handle your Kendall County injury case. Texas allows any licensed attorney to represent clients in any county court across the state, so what matters is experience with the local court process, not a local mailing address.

Whether you are looking for a Boerne personal injury lawyer or a San Antonio firm that serves the area, Lane Diamond Law is available from our office on I-10.

Filing Deadline in Texas

The two-year filing deadline covered above applies to car accidents, truck collisions, and most other negligence-based injury claims. Missing the window generally bars you from any recovery, regardless of how clear the other driver’s fault may be.

Starting the process early also helps preserve evidence that strengthens your case, including witness testimony, medical records, police reports, and any electronic logging device data from a commercial truck.

Kendall County Court Venue

Boerne-area injury cases are typically filed in the Kendall County District Courts. The Kendall County Courthouse is located at 201 E. San Antonio Ave. in Boerne, and cases may be assigned to either the 216th or 451st Judicial District Court.

In truck accident cases, the trucking company may be headquartered in Bexar County or another jurisdiction, which can raise venue questions that your attorney should evaluate early.
