How Fault is Determined in Arlington Accident Claims

Texas follows a comparative negligence system, which means multiple parties can share responsibility for an accident. Your potential recovery may be reduced by the percentage of fault assigned to you.

For example, if a driver runs a red light and collides with another vehicle, fault can be divided between the parties. Even if you are partly responsible, you may still recover compensation, though it is reduced according to your share. If you are found more than 50% at fault, Texas law prevents you from recovering damages from the other party.

At Jackson, Landrith & Kulesz, our attorneys investigate accidents thoroughly, gathering evidence, consulting experts, and applying Texas law to establish responsibility accurately. We challenge overstated fault assignments and ensure clients understand how liability may affect potential recovery.
