What “Loss of Consortium” Means
Loss of consortium is the damage an injury inflicts on a close family relationship — the spouse’s loss of companionship, affection, and partnership; in Texas, parents and children may also recover for loss of each other’s consortium in serious-injury and death cases.
Why It Matters in Your Texas Case
These claims recognize a truth families live: the person injured is not the only person harmed. A spouse becomes a caregiver; a child loses the parent who coached and carried them. McKay Law pleads consortium claims where the facts support them and proves them with texture — the specific partnership, routines, and roles the injury took — because juries compensate what they can picture. It’s some of the most human proof a case contains, and it deserves unhurried, respectful presentation.
