Texas Accident Law

Texas is considered an “at fault state.” Simply put, this means that, if you are injured in a car accident, you have the right to seek compensation from the person or entity that caused the auto accident. Determining whether or not another driver or party was at fault is generally determined by whether or not they broke Texas traffic laws or whether or not the party was negligent. For instance, if another driver runs a red light and crashes into your car, that driver is liable for your damages because he or she broke the law by running the red light.

However, what if you are injured in a car accident due to a defect in your vehicle? In all likelihood, the car’s manufacturer is responsible for your injuries, but technically no traffic laws were broken. This is when the concept of negligence is invoked. A car manufacturer is responsible for making sure that its vehicles are safe. When this responsibility is ignored, that car manufacturer can be held liable through various product liability laws. Liability and negligence are not always easy to establish, but our experienced attorneys know how to investigate a case and establish even very obscure forms of liability in order to ensure that you receive fair compensation for your injuries.


What damages can I recover under Texas accident law?

If you are hurt in an accident, you are entitled to receive compensation for many different types of damages, including:

  • Medical bills, both past and future
  • Property damage
  • Lost wages from time spent in recovery at a hospital
  • Lost earning capacity due to long-term disability
  • Physical pain and suffering
  • Emotional and mental distress

There is no limit to how much money you can recover through a personal injury lawsuit, but you must seek a legal professional to help you protect your rights.

$2,000,000.00 Recovery - Wrongful Death / Commercial Vehicle Accident
The family of a deceased woman hired our firm following a fatal 18-wheeler accident. The fatal accident occurred as the driver of an 18-wheeler lost control of his vehicle and veered out of his lane, resulting in a massive collision. The decedent, a passenger in a vehicle, died on the scene.

Her adult children consulted our firm to initially investigate the accident and make sense of the facts and circumstances since the family felt that the police report did not make it clear enough precisely what occurred. We launched a full investigation an immediately deposed the investigating officers.

Upon the completion of our investigation, it was apparent that the trucking company was indeed negligent and a lawsuit was soon filed. The defendant's launched an aggressive defense whereby they initially claimed that the truck driver was overcome by his passenger who allegedly grabbed the steering wheel and deliberately drove the truck off the road, despite the truck driver's best efforts.

We refuted this claim by illustrating that the tire marks that were present clearly show the truck gradually moving across the road and eventually onto the grass, which is entirely inconsistent with an abrupt lane change caused by someone taking control of the wheel. It was quite an unusual defense strategy that we were frankly surprised to even find ourselves having to refute.

The defendants then argued that a tire blowout may have contributed to the accident, which is significant because it would enable the defendant to offset some portion of their liability to a tire manufacturer or installer. Through deposition testimony of the investigating officer we established that there was absolutely no indication at the scene of the accident that a tire had blown out.

Finally, the defendants argued that the company which loaded the trailer may have improperly loaded the cargo. This argument was most plausible considering that the precise cause of the decedent's death was that she was essentially pummeled by cargo that broke through trailer and struck her person.

Our firm consulted several experts in the fields of heavy cargo transportation and physics. Our experts felt that the cargo was secured in a manner that is perfectly consistent with industry standards and that due to the forces involved, the cargo would not have behaved any differently irrespective of how it was secured. In short, the collision caused the cargo to break free and the negligence lay squarely on the trucking company and not any other entity. The case was successfully resolved through litigation.

$335,000.00 Recovery - Wrongful Death/ Commercial Vehicle Accident
The mother of a young man hired our firm to investigate the death of her son following a fatal car accident. The incident occurred as one of the two vehicles involved ran a red light and drive into the path of the other. The defendant was driving a work vehicle for a construction company. The defendant survived the accident and stated to police that the decedent caused the accident. The police could not conclusively determine who was at fault, yet the police report strongly implied that the decedent was likely at fault based on the statement provided by the defendant.

The plaintiff's mother was not convinced. Through a thorough investigation, we ultimately determined that the stoplight that the defendant claimed that our client ran, in fact, worked on a timer whereby the light was always green between certain hours unless a vehicle traveling on the intersecting road had been stopped at the right light for more than 30 seconds. Based on an analysis of the vehicles and tire markings, it was conclusively determined that both vehicles were traveling at the speed limit, which clearly indicates that the defendant driver had not accelerated from stop, rather, he was traveling at the speed limit, which would not have triggered a green light for the defendant.

The logical implications of this information is that the light could not have been red for the plaintiff, and it certainly would have been red for the defendant. As a consequence of this information, the case was resolved through litigation.
