Rear End Collision Settlements

Summary

Texas is an at-fault state, meaning the driver who caused the accident is responsible for covering damages. The statute of limitations for personal injury lawsuits in Texas is generally two years from the date of the accident. Texas follows a modified comparative fault rule, allowing recovery of damages if you are less than 51% at fault. For a fast and fair settlement, consider contacting an attorney, gathering evidence, and filing an insurance claim promptly. If handling the settlement yourself, document everything, communicate clearly, and be prepared to negotiate. Examples of settlements for severe emotional distress include $130,000 for chronic PTSD in Dallas, $140,000 for severe depression and anxiety in Fort Worth, and $115,000 for panic disorder in El Paso.
