Car Accidents Have Far-Reaching Consequences

In the immediate aftermath of a car accident, many victims do not comprehend just how widespread the harm to their lives will be. Car accidents can often cause significant suffering in each of these categories:

Pain & Suffering

Pain and suffering are common consequences of car accidents, often encompassing physical injuries, emotional distress, and a diminished quality of life. These impacts can significantly affect a victim’s well-being, underscoring the importance of appropriate compensation in personal injury claims.

Emotional Trauma

A car crash can be an incredibly traumatic event, especially if the incident results in the loss of a loved one. You may suffer ongoing psychological and emotional distress.

Medical Expenses

With a serious personal injury, medical bills can extend far beyond the initial recovery period. Some injuries require lifelong care and dramatic changes to your daily life.

Made a Mistake on the Road?

We Can Still Collect Compensation

Many people think that if they contributed to their car accident, they cannot receive compensation. This is especially the line of thinking for people who moved here from states where that is the law, like Virginia or Maryland. But here in Texas, car accident victims don’t have to drive perfectly to win lawsuits.

That is because our state utilizes modified comparative negligence when adjudicating personal injury cases. This legal framework enforces that a driver can be compensated as long as the defendant in the case is primarily at fault for the accident, meaning the other driver, municipality, or parts manufacturer caused more than 50% of your wreck.

The amount you are found to be responsible for really matters when determining compensation. For example, if you are determined to be accountable for 10% of your car accident, you can get 90% of the compensation. But if you are found to be responsible for 40% of your crash, you can only get 60% of the available pool. We will do everything we can to minimize your share of the blame.
