The Basics of Texas Personal Injury Law
Each Austin injury attorney at the Robson Law Firm understands the details of Texas injury law, which our state basis on comparative negligence. This law allows injured parties to pursue compensation from other negligent parties even if the victim is up to 50 percent at fault for the injury. Victims cannot collect any compensation if they are more than 50 percent at fault.
Types of Compensation
Even accident victims who pursue compensation through insurance claims can pursue past, current, and future anticipated expenses related to their injuries, but insurance claims have limitations. Severely injured individuals may need to consider out-of-court settlements or even jury trials to achieve full compensation for all their losses, including (but not limited to) the following:
- All medical and therapy costs
- Property damage
- Lost wages due to time away from work, or when disability prevents them from working at the same level in the future
