Protecting Your Rights Under Texas Law
Texas is an at-fault state, meaning the driver responsible for causing an accident may be held financially liable for the damages that result. However, obtaining fair compensation is not always straightforward. Insurance companies often conduct their own investigations and may attempt to minimize your injuries, dispute liability, or offer settlements that fail to fully account for your losses.
At Byron C. Bailey & Associates, we work to level the playing field by thoroughly investigating every case. This may include reviewing accident reports, gathering witness statements, analyzing photographs and video footage, obtaining medical records, and consulting with professionals when necessary. Building a strong claim from the beginning can make a significant difference in the outcome of your case.
Texas also follows a modified comparative negligence rule. This means that if you are found partially responsible for the accident, your compensation may be reduced by your percentage of fault. If you are determined to be more than 50% responsible, you may be unable to recover damages. Understanding these laws and how they apply to your situation is essential, and our firm is here to guide you through every step of the legal process.
Depending on the circumstances of your case, you may be entitled to recover compensation for medical expenses, future medical treatment, lost income, diminished earning capacity, property damage, pain and suffering, and other accident-related losses. We work tirelessly to pursue a recovery that reflects the full impact the accident has had on your life.

frequently asked questions
What should I do after a car accident in Texas?
After a car accident, seek medical attention as soon as possible, report the accident to law enforcement, exchange information with the other driver, and document the scene if it is safe to do so. Before speaking with the insurance company, consider consulting with an attorney to better understand your rights.
How long do I have to file a car accident claim in Texas?
In most cases, Texas law gives you two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. Acting quickly can help preserve important evidence and strengthen your claim.
What compensation can I recover after a car accident?
Depending on the circumstances, you may be able to recover compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, future medical care, property damage, pain and suffering, and other losses related to your accident.
What if the other driver's insurance company contacts me?
Insurance adjusters may ask for a recorded statement or offer a quick settlement. Before accepting an offer or providing detailed statements, it's important to understand your legal rights and consider speaking with an attorney.
Can I recover compensation if I was partially at fault?
Yes. Texas follows a modified comparative negligence rule, which means you may still recover compensation if you were less than 51% responsible for the accident. Your recovery may be reduced based on your percentage of fault.
How long will my car accident case take?
Every case is different. The timeline depends on factors such as the severity of your injuries, the complexity of the accident, and whether the insurance company is willing to negotiate a fair settlement.

Many car accident claims are resolved through settlement negotiations. However, if a fair settlement cannot be reached, Byron C. Bailey & Associates is prepared to advocate for your rights in court.
Should I see a doctor even if I feel okay after an accident?
Yes. Some injuries, including whiplash, concussions, and internal injuries, may not show symptoms immediately. Seeking prompt medical attention can protect both your health and your personal injury claim.
