Texas Car Insurance Laws
Texas is a fault car accident state. If a driver commits a negligent act, such as driving recklessly or running a red light, and causes an accident, he or she will be financially liable for any resulting damages. Texas law requires drivers to carry minimum amounts of liability insurance in case of a collision.
If you are injured by a negligent driver, you have two main options to secure compensation. You can file an insurance claim against the other driver’s policy, or you can file a lawsuit against the driver in Texas civil court. If you have certain policies, such as uninsured motorist coverage, you can also file a claim with your own insurance company.
Most car accident claims begin in the insurance process and proceed to a lawsuit if the claim is unsuccessful. However, there are certain situations where filing a lawsuit from the beginning may be beneficial. The car accident lawyer at De La Garza Law Firm can evaluate your case and identify your optimal path to compensation.
