In cases involving gross negligence, you may also be able to recover exemplary damages.
Car accidents can result in a wide range of injuries, including:
The type and severity of a victim’s injuries can depend on the vehicle’s speed, impact point and whether passengers wore seat belts.
Texas insurance companies are focused on minimizing payouts, so their initial settlement offers rarely account for the full scope of your damages. It is best to consult an attorney before accepting the offer.
Once your lawyer and the insurance company have reached an agreement, finalizing the settlement takes two to six weeks. While exceptions exist, on average, it takes around a month to complete the paperwork, receive the check and determine the exact proceeds.
A personal injury case has no definitive value until all facts are thoroughly reviewed and examined under Texas laws.
The value of a personal injury case depends on things like:
An experienced personal injury attorney can help evaluate your case and determine its potential worth.
Texas imposes a two-year statute of limitations. With few exceptions, that is the maximum amount of time you have to bring a lawsuit for personal injuries.
Under the state’s modified comparative negligence rules, as long as you are determined to be 50% or less responsible for the incident, you can receive compensation reduced by your percentage of fault.
Since insurance companies have teams of lawyers working to minimize pay or look for grounds to deny claims, an experienced personal injury attorney effectively counters the insurance tactics and ensures you recover the total amount you deserve.
When selecting a personal injury lawyer, check their experience, track record and approach. Look for someone who has successfully handled cases similar to yours and has positive client reviews. Also, ensure they are attentive, responsive and communicate well with you.
