Car accidents in Texas can happen because of:
The personal injury lawyers in our network will investigate your Texas car accident from every angle to understand all the potential causes and contributors. Knowing exactly what happened and who was at fault will strengthen your claim and potentially result in a higher payout.
In Texas, negligence forms the basis for most car accident lawsuits. Negligence means that someone failed to take reasonable care, leading to another person’s injury.
To have a successful car accident claim, we must establish:
Clearly and convincingly establishing negligence positions your case for a successful resolution, whether through settlement negotiations or in court. The sooner you contact a qualified Texas car accident attorney, the more likely critical accident evidence will remain intact.
In a word, no. Never speak directly with the at-fault party’s insurance company after a car accident. Insurance adjusters are trained to minimize payouts and may use your words against you to weaken your claim. They aim to save money, not protect your interests. While seemingly simple, your answers to their questions can have negative implications for your case.
A Texas car accident lawyer handling these communications is critical to your compensation. At TopDog Law, we can connect you with a local attorney to deal with insurance companies on your behalf so you don’t have to. Your lawyer can protect your rights and position your claim for the best possible outcome. Let them handle the insurance companies so you can focus on recovering.
Recent figures show that a traffic accident occurs in Texas approximately every minute. That may not sound so high in a state as big as Texas, but in a year, that’s more than half a million accidents. In fact, Texas consistently ranks at the top for the number of fatal car accidents year after year.
From bustling metropolises like Dallas-Fort Worth and Houston to the rural back roads of West Texas to the scenic coastal routes along the Gulf, every type of terrain and road condition presents driving challenges that can lead to accidents.
A Texas car accident can turn your life upside down in an instant. If you or a family member suffered serious injuries in a car accident that was not your fault, speaking with a knowledgeable Texas car accident lawyer in TopDog Law’s legal network can get your life back on track.
Liability in a car accident can fall on various parties depending on the circumstances of the case.
Some of the parties most liable in cases we handle include:
Identifying all liable parties is crucial to maximizing the compensation you can recover.
Car accident victims may recover damages, which are monetary compensations for losses. These damages fall into two main categories:
Economic damages compensate for the direct financial losses a victim incurs in an accident.
These typically include:
Non-economic damages cover the more subjective, non-monetary consequences of an accident.
These losses and damages are often harder to quantify but are just as important as physical damages:
These damages are essential to ensuring that car accident survivors are fully compensated for the negative impacts the accident can have on their lives.
In cases of fatal accidents, family members may pursue wrongful death claims to cover funeral costs, loss of companionship, and other associated losses.
In Texas, the statute of limitations for car accident lawsuits is two years from the date of the accident. This means you have two years to file a lawsuit to seek damages for your injuries. Failing to file within this period can prevent you from recovering any compensation.
Some exceptions to these rules exist, so if you or a loved one have suffered injuries in a car accident, it’s important to contact a Texas car accident lawyer as soon as you can to discuss your case.
