If you or a loved one were injured due to someone’s negligence, you may be entitled to compensation. Contact TopDog today to speak with one of our experienced personal injury lawyers, including our Texas Premises Liability Lawyer, about your case. We’re here to help you on the path to recovery.
It costs absolutely nothing to see if you have a case
Texas is a giant state with bustling cities and metro areas, small towns, wide open spaces, and a variety of environments from our eastern shores to our western deserts. Injuries can occur in a flash in any of these places when property owners neglect to take the proper steps and measures to maintain safe conditions.Â
We handle a wide range of premises liability claims, including:
Keep in mind that any insurance company’s top interest is to maximize its profits, usually at the expense of paying out policyholder claims. Insurance companies train adjusters to reduce the company’s financial obligations to policyholders as much as possible.
Insurance companies train adjusters to reduce the company’s financial obligations as much as possible. If an insurance adjuster from the at-fault party’s insurer contacts you after a premises liability injury, it’s best to avoid speaking with them directly.
Communicating with them can weaken or jeopardize your compensation claim.
While accepting an insurance company’s settlement offer may be tempting, you will almost certainly leave money on the table and waive your right to sue for additional damages later.
When you hire TopDog for your Texas premises liability claim, you can leave the insurance companies to us. We will fight for your maximum compensation, as we have for thousands of clients across Texas and the U.S. We’ll take your claim to court when insurers fail to pay what you need and deserve.
In Texas, premises liability cases follow a “modified comparative negligence” rule. This rule is important because it assigns a percentage of fault to all parties involved. That percentage of fault then determines how much compensation you may receive.
If the court determines that you were partly responsible for the incident that caused your injuries, then your compensation will be reduced by that percentage.
Texas law negates your ability to collect any compensation if you share 51% or more of the blame for the accident or incident that injured you.
Understanding and effectively managing comparative negligence is vital to maximizing your compensation. TopDog will work to build a strong claim that minimizes your fault percentage and maximizes your compensation.
Was the property owner aware that dangerous accidents or incidents could occur on their property? Should they have foreseen the risks? Foreseeability is an important factor that can significantly impact a premises liability case’s outcome and potential payout.Â
For instance, crimes continually occur at a particular gas station, yet the owner repeatedly fails to fix broken surveillance cameras or improve the lighting around the station’s exterior. Â
An experienced lawyer understands how to build a strong argument that the property owner should have reasonably foreseen and prevented the hazardous condition that caused your injuries. Establishing greater foreseeability on the defendant’s part can lead to higher compensation awards.Â
If you are in a Texas premises liability incident, immediately:
Acting quickly is essential to building your premises liability case. Evidence can disappear over time, witnesses may forget details, surveillance footage may be erased, the physical site of an accident may change, and documents may go missing. Taking prompt action helps preserve valuable evidence.
If you have suffered an injury on someone else’s property, you will need an experienced legal team to build, negotiate, and resolve your case. Attempting to handle it alone could substantially undermine the compensation you can receive.Â
