Car accidents are trying life events. An accident can be physically, financially, and emotionally draining. Texas is a fault state, meaning that the driver at fault in the accident will be responsible for paying the medical expenses of the injured party. This is only the case if you are not more than 50% responsible for causing the accident.
Generally speaking, you are likely entitled to a claim if you were injured as a result of another individual’s negligence. Until the at-fault driver is forced to pay for your losses, you must cover them yourself. It is essential that you attend all medical appointments and therapy sessions as failure to attend these appointments may result in the defense challenging the validity of your injuries, possible lowering the damages awarded.
