Auto Accidents in Texas
Motor vehicle accidents causing injuries occur approximately every two minutes in Texas, resulting in hundreds of thousands of crashes annually that send victims to hospitals across the state. Unfortunately, many individuals sustain injuries that have long-lasting effects on their lives, such as internal organ damage, spinal cord injuries, and traumatic brain injuries, often necessitating extensive medical care.
In a significant number of cases, victims endure severe injuries due to the negligence of other drivers. Following a car crash, victims have the option to pursue personal injury claims to seek compensation. In Texas, the legal concept of comparative negligence plays a critical role in these claims arising from car accidents. The state abides by a modified version known as the 51% rule, meaning an injured party can only recover damages if their fault in the accident is less than 51%.
If a court determines that the injured party is 51% or more at fault, they are unable to claim damages. To enhance your chances of obtaining justice after an accident, seeking legal representation from dedicated San Antonio pedestrian accident lawyers is crucial.
