Yes, you can sue government entities in Texas for personal injury, but special rules apply under the Texas Tort Claims Act. The Act waives governmental immunity in specific situations, primarily involving motor vehicle accidents, dangerous property conditions, and injuries from government employee negligence.

Some governmental functions retain immunity. Given these complexities and shortened deadlines, consulting an attorney immediately after injury by a government entity is crucial.
