Personal Injury Cases in Texas
Personal injury law in Texas encompasses a broad range of legal principles and statues designed to protect individuals who have suffered serious injuries due to negligence, recklessness, or intentional misconduct of others. Understanding the fundamental principles of personal injury lawsuits in Texas is essential for injury victims and legal practitioners. Here is a few of the most frequently asked personal injury claims questions in Texas:
What is negligence?
Negligence is a central concept in personal injury lawsuits and refers to a person or entity’s failure to exercise reasonable care, resulting in harm or catastrophic injury to another individual. In Texas, to establish negligence, the plaintiff or injured party must prove the following elements:
- Duty: The person being sued owed you a duty of care to prevent harming you.
- Breach of duty: They breached the duty of care by failing to act as a reasonably prudent person would under similar circumstances.
- Causation: Their breach of duty directly caused your injuries, with a clear link between their actions or omissions and your harm.
- Damages: You suffered actual economic damages and / or non-economic damages, potentially including physical injuries, emotional distress, medical expenses, lost wages, or property damage, as a result of their negligence.
What is comparative negligence?
Texas follows a modified comparative negligence rule, meaning your financial recovery may be reduced if you are found to be partially at fault for your injuries. Under Texas law, you can still recover damages if your percentage of fault is less than 51%. However, the amount will be reduced by the percentage of your fault.
What are the statute of limitations for personal injury cases in Texas?
The statute of limitations sets the deadline for filing a personal injury lawsuit in Texas. In most cases, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims is two years from the date of your injury or when it was discovered. Failing to file a personal injury lawsuit within the applicable statute of limitations may result in losing your right to seek compensation.
What is strict liability?
In some cases, Texas law imposes strict liability on certain parties, such as manufacturers and sellers of defective products or owners of dangerous animals. This means these parties can be held liable for injuries caused by their products or animals, regardless of whether they were negligent.
What is premises liability?
Property owners in Texas have a duty to maintain their premises in a reasonably safe condition and to warn visitors of any known hazards. If a property owner fails to fulfill this duty and you are injured, the owner may be held liable for your injuries under premises liability law.
What are damages?
Damages refer to the monetary compensation awarded to an injured person for their losses and injuries. Types of damages available in Texas personal injury cases may include economic damages, such as medical bills and lost wages; non-economic damages, such as pain and suffering and emotional distress; and punitive damages. Punitive damages punish the defendant for egregious conduct and deter future recklessness.
How do I deal with insurance issues?
Dealing with insurance companies is often a significant aspect of personal injury cases in Texas. Many injury claims are resolved through negotiations with insurance adjusters. However, it is essential to be cautious when corresponding with insurance companies, as their primary goal is to minimize payouts.
Understanding these fundamental principles of personal injury law in Texas is crucial for injury victims and legal professionals. If you have been injured due to someone else’s negligence in Houston, it is essential to consult with an experienced personal injury attorney who can evaluate your case, explain your legal rights, and help you pursue compensation. At Williams Hart & Boundas, we handle all types of personal injury cases and are prepared to walk you through the legal process to fight for recovery.
