Car Accidents in Texas
Each year, tens of thousands of innocent people are hospitalized with significant injuries as a result of motor vehicle accidents on our roadways. Far too often, the accidents that victims suffer severe injuries and are completely preventable. We continue to see acts of negligence contribute to many of the crashes that occur in our state. This includes acts like speeding, impairment, and failing to yield to others.
After being hurt in a car crash, you have the ability to take legal action against the responsible party. Filing a personal injury claim can help you recover compensation for the losses and damages you face.
Can I File a Claim if I am Partially At Fault?
In Texas, you have the right to file a claim for personal injury damages even if you share some fault for the accident. Texas follows proportionate responsibility laws when it comes to personal injury cases. These laws allow victims to seek compensation for their accidents, even if they bear partial responsibility.
To recover compensation for losses and damages, a claimant must demonstrate that they shared less than 50% responsibility for their accident. Each defendant in a claim can forced to pay compensation for any resulting damages based on their degree of responsibility for the accident. If you share some liability, your total recovery for damages will be reduced proportionally to your level of fault. Partnering with an experienced personal injury attorney in Texas can help you prove that the other party bears the majority of fault in your car crash, which is vital when it comes to maximizing your recovery.
