Fort Sam Houston Personal Injury Lawyer
Experienced representation for military members, veterans, their families, and other San Antonio residents for more than 40 years
Fort Sam Houston is located in the heart of San Antonio. US Army Fort Base Sam Houston is the oldest of the three installations (along with Randolph Air Force Base and Lackland Air Force Base) that comprise US Joint Base San Antonio. The primary mission of US Army Fort Base Sam Houston is medical training. JBSA-Fort Sam Houston is home to Brooke Army Medical Center (BAMC). Brooke Army Medical Center is the Department of Defense’s only Level I Trauma Center and the Army’s flagship medical institution.
Like the rest of the country, Fort Sam Houston has its share of vehicle accidents, slip and falls on the property of others, physicians who commit mistakes, construction accidents, oil and gas accidents, and products that fail to work properly – all causing serious personal injuries. At Pat Maloney: Accident & Injury Attorney, we file personal injury and wrongful death claims against negligent drivers, property owners, physicians, construction companies, manufacturers, and other defendants whose negligence causes people harm. We demand compensation for all your financial and personal damages. Call us today to assert your right to compensation.
We understand the unique challenges and rights of personal injury victims.

What should I do if I’ve been in an accident in San Antonio?
We recommend that personal injury victims focus on the following when accidents happen:
- Get medical help. An ER doctor, a military doctor (if you’re a member of the military), or a family doctor should review your injuries as soon as possible. An early review helps provide quality medical care and prevents insurance companies from arguing you can’t be hurting much if you didn’t seek immediate medical care. Normally, the police, a property supervisor, an employer, or someone with you should arrange for emergency medical transport.
- Provide timely notices. Fort Sam Houston victims should notify their own insurance company, a store manager, an employer, or others when accidents happen. Military personnel should provide the proper notices to their superiors.
- Call our experienced Fort Sam Houston personal injury lawyer. We can explain your duties, discuss your rights, and fight for all the compensation you deserve.
What is the time limit for filing my personal injury lawsuit in Texas?
Generally, you must file your accident claim within two years from the date of the accident or injury. Some exceptions (such as for current members of the military) and when you have a claim against a governmental agency or entity may apply.
We recommend that you contact us as soon as possible.
