In Texas, you must always prove that your injury resulted from someone else’s reckless action, carelessness or negligence. The individual claiming injury is called the plaintiff and is the person who files a law suit against the potentially responsible party who is usually called the defendant. When a lawsuit claiming personal injury is filed after a car accident, the plaintiff has to prove 4 specific elements in order to win the case. Did any defendants owe a legal duty to the plaintiff? Was there a legal breach of any owed duty? Was the defendant’s lack of actions or actions what caused the accident to happen? Did the plaintiff suffer damages or was the plaintiff injured due to any defendant’s negligent actions or lack of actions. To determine the legal negligence the trier of fact must see if all necessary and reasonable care was used by the defendant. Even if an action or lack of action was unintentional, the defendant may be legally responsible or liable or responsible for any or all damages anyway.
