As a general matter, the State of Texas is a “no-fault” State, which means that regardless of who caused the accident, there are State insurance requirements in effect to ensure that your minimum medical costs and expenses are paid. These insurance requirements are known as Personal Injury Protection (PIP) which every licensed driver is required to carry and is used to pay for your own reasonably and necessary medical expenses.

With the rising cost of medical treatment, it is not hard to imagine that this minimum insurance requirement is hardly adequate to compensate you for all of your personal injuries or medical expenses. More troubling is the fact that many drivers still refuse to care this minimum requirement even though it is required by law. Additionally, Personal Injury Protection is intended to be used only for medical expenses and costs, and not the effects of your injuries, namely pain, suffering, disfigurement, scarring, or lost wages and earning capacity.car accident lawyers To recover damages for the foregoing, a medical doctor must conclude that your injuries are permanent and have impaired you in whole or in part. Thereafter, you must seek relief against the negligent party to pay you for your personal injuries in addition to all other costs including any excess medical expenses beyond those paid by your Personal Injury Protection insurance as well as any property damage that you may have suffered to your vehicle.

Premises Liability Attorney

by Admin

You may be entitled to compensation if you were injured while you occupy the land, building, or property of another party and your injury is the result of a dangerous condition contained on that land, building, or property. A common example of premise liability is the case of a customer slipping and falling on the floor of a store that was wet. The law provides that an owner of property is charged with maintaining that property in a reasonably safe manner so that a visitor would not be injured upon the property when the property is open to the public or in which it is foreseeable that a member of the public would enter the property. Failing to adequately maintain the safety of the area will result in the owner of the property being held accountable to pay for the injuries that the property may cause to others.

Other examples of dangerous conditions could include falling ceiling tiles, holes in a parking lot, unsafe stairs or hand railings. Just the same, if the owner of the property allows dangerous activities to occur on the property that could expose a person to harm, the owner will again be held liable for the injuries to such a person. All told, if you have been injured upon property owned by another person, you may be entitled to be compensated for your injuries as all factors surrounding your injury and the cause should be examined.
