What Compensation Can You Recover?

Texas Car Accident Law

Texas is a fault state — the driver who caused the accident is responsible for damages. Texas uses modified comparative fault (§33.001): if you were partially at fault, your damages are reduced by your percentage of responsibility, as long as you are less than 51% at fault.

You have two years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit (§16.003). Call us before the deadline and before you make any decisions about your claim.
