History of Tarrant County

Many people can guess that Tarrant County’s roots lie in the “Old West,” with most of the heritage tracing to a period that belonged to the cowboys and the cattle drives.

However, what most do not realize is that there was so much more to Tarrant County, Texas. One of the 254 counties in Texas, Tarrant County was set up initially by the State to serve as a decentralized administrative division that not only provided state services but collected state taxes as well.

Named after General Edward H. Tarrant, commander of military forces of the Republic of Texas at the Battle of Village Creek, Tarrant County was established in 1849, one of the 26 counties created out of the Peters Colony and also considered one of the first areas of western civilization.

Determining Who is Liable for Your Personal Injury Damages

Determining who is liable for a personal injury is one of the most critical questions that one can answer in a personal injury lawsuit or an insurance claim. These injury claims begin because one or more parties acted negligently.

Negligent conduct is considered an action that falls below the standard of care expected of a reasonable individual, and the resulting actions cause harm to another person. In order to show that an individual was negligent, the injured party needs to prove the legal elements of negligence to hold the at-fault party liable for his or her personal injuries.

What’s even more complicated is that negligence is not the only way to prove fault, other methods also include establishing intentional conduct, showing the claim is subject to a “strict liability” standard of proof, or even proving negligence per se.

Patterson Law Group will guarantee your rights are protected. Let our best people help you and take your call at 817-784-2000.

We Know Texas Statutes

Proving the elements of fault can be quite difficult in any personal injury case. To show liability, the injured party needs to not only do a thorough investigation of all the details of an injury claim to make an informed and legally sound decision, but they also have to make sure to abide by the specific Texas Statutes that can affect their lawsuit.

  • Texas Statute of Limitations: The statute of limitations for personal injury cases in Texas is two years. That means the injured party has two years from the date of the injury to file a lawsuit for their damages.
  • Shared-Fault Injury Cases: It is essential to know that Texas follows a “modified comparative negligence rule.” This means that the percentage of your fault can reduce the amount of compensation you are entitled to. However, if you are found to be more than 50% at fault for the accident, then you will not collect anything for your damages.

As you can see, there is a lot involved with a personal injury claim, especially when filing in Texas. That is why it is so essential to have an experienced legal team, like Patterson Law Group, working for you.

We are equipped to handle all types of cases to ensure you get the best representation. Call our team at 817-784-2000 for a consultation regarding your case.
