Many people assume that if they share any fault in a car accident, they cannot recover compensation. Texas follows a modified comparative negligence rule. This means you can still pursue a claim as long as you are not more than 50 percent at fault. Your compensation will simply be reduced by your percentage of fault.
Insurance companies are very aware of this rule and often try to place as much blame as possible on the injured person. Having strong legal representation from the beginning can make a significant difference in protecting your right to fair compensation.
