Frequently Asked Questions

What should Bellaire residents do immediately after a car accident in Harris County?

Seek medical attention right away, even if injuries feel minor — symptoms often appear days after an accident. Call law enforcement to generate an official crash report through the Houston Police Department or Harris County Sheriff. Document the scene with photos, collect witness information, and avoid giving recorded statements to the other driver’s insurer without first consulting an attorney. Texas law gives you two years to file a personal injury lawsuit under Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code § 16.003.

How does Texas’s modified comparative fault rule affect personal injury claims in Bellaire?

Texas follows modified comparative fault with a 51 percent bar. An injured plaintiff can recover damages as long as their responsibility for the accident is 50 percent or less. Recovery is reduced by the plaintiff’s percentage of fault. If the plaintiff is found more than 50 percent at fault, they recover nothing. Insurer adjusters routinely attempt to assign fault to claimants — an attorney counters these tactics with documented evidence of the other party’s negligence.
