Comparative Negligence Laws in Texas

When you file a claim against a property owner, you will contend with an insurance company for the compensation you need. Unless your case is airtight and can easily prove your need for medical coverage, the insurance company will try to evade paying out a settlement. In Texas, they can reduce the amount they pay you by demonstrating your fault in the matter.

Insurance companies can reduce their paid settlement to you if they can demonstrate that:

• You misused the property in some way
• You failed to exercise reasonable caution
• The risks were obvious and you ignored them

The law states that whatever percentage you were at fault can be deducted from your settlement. If you need $10,000 for coverage but you are found to be 20 percent at fault, you would only receive $8,000. This is why effective planning is so crucial.
