Negligence is a term that means someone else acted irresponsibly and caused an accident that resulted in someone else’s injury. It’s the core of almost every personal injury case in Texas because it determines who is at fault and who is eligible for compensation.

To seek a settlement, you need to prove someone else’s negligence with three factors. First, you need to show that the other person acted in an unreasonably reckless or careless way. Second, you need to show that their actions caused the accident. Finally, you need to show that the accident caused your injury.

Our team at Lorenz & Lorenz Accident & Injury Lawyers PLLC knows what evidence is needed to prove negligence in your case. We’re on top of it!

A statute of limitations is a period of time during which you have to file your accident injury lawsuit. If you fail to file your lawsuit during that window, you can lose your right to seek compensation. In Texas, this window is 2 years from the date of the accident. Though, there are a few exceptions to this rule, so the deadline may change depending on the details of your case. That’s another reason why it’s important to have an experienced Austin, TX, car accident lawyer from our Lorenz & Lorenz Accident & Injury Lawyers PLLC team in your corner. We’re on top of it!

A police report is very useful in remembering the details of your story if you are seeking compensation. You will probably need to recall what happened quite a few times, and having that report gives you a solid place to look to make sure you don’t forget anything. Forgetting important details could end up limiting the settlement you receive, so it is important to have all of the details from the scene of the accident.

Texas uses a concept called “modified comparative negligence” in car accidents. That means that if you’re found to share any blame for the accident, your compensation can be reduced by that percentage. So, if your accident is worth $100,000 but you are determined to be 30% at fault, you are only eligible to receive $70,000. Beyond that, if you are more than 50% at fault, you won’t qualify for any settlement.
