Although Texas law requires that all drivers and passengers wear seatbelts, failing to wear one will not necessarily stop you from obtaining compensation if someone else causes your car accident.
At Kemmy Law Firm, our family of driven and highly successful personal injury lawyers can help you obtain the most money possible after a car accident. While the insurance company will try to blame you and pay as little as possible, we will gather the necessary evidence to prove that their policy holder is at fault and should be held legally liable for the damages they caused, even if you weren’t wearing a seatbelt at the time.
Whether you need a car accident lawyer in Odessa, TX, or an auto accident attorney in Hobbs, NM, we will listen to your story and give you a realistic assessment of the situation. Call (210) 750-1019 today. There’s no risk in calling because we offer free initial consults, and are only paid when you recover compensation. We have offices in San Antonio, TX, Odessa-Midland, TX, and Hobbs, NM.
The other driver’s insurance company will likely try to blame you for your injuries. They may even say that you wouldn’t have been injured as badly or at all if you had been wearing a seatbelt. However, this is a defensive tactic that we can combat.
By reconstructing the accident, speaking to witnesses, and compiling reports, we can often prove that the actual cause of the wreck was the other driver’s negligence. And if not for their irresponsible actions, you would not have been put in a precarious situation that required a seatbelt’s protection.
Essentially, if the accident had not happened, you would not have been injured at all.
On the other hand, if a judge or jury were to find that you were partially at fault for some of your injuries, we can still recover compensation.
As long as you were 50% or less at fault, you can still recover under Texas’ modified comparative fault rule. Most people don’t know that, so insurance companies often try to scare people who have been injured into thinking they can’t get recover any compensation.
Let Kemmy Law Firm protect your rights against the large companies who don’t want to pay what is fair.
Many factors impact exactly how much money you can expect in a car accident claim. Since every case is unique, it is possible that the insurance company will offer a reduced amount and blame the fact that you were not wearing a seatbelt.
Kemmy Law Firm understands that you want to get as much money as possible to cover your losses, such as medical bills and lost wages. We will help determine what your claim is worth and fight back against the insurance company’s claims when they try to reduce your settlement.
We will collect evidence of your injuries, medical reports, your bills, and document your lost wages all in an effort to present the full value of what you lost. And if they refuse to make a fair offer, we are not afraid to take them to trial.
