Fighting For Justice After An Accident
Personal injury lawsuits can be complex, but they are crucial in protecting your rights after an accident. Having an experienced attorney to guide you is essential.

In Texas, personal injury claims can provide compensation that covers both economic and noneconomic damages.

When you work with us at Callahan & King, PLLC, we will thoroughly examine your case to ensure that you receive the full and fair compensation you deserve.
Frequently Asked Questions About Motor Vehicle Accidents
Do you have questions about your car accident claim? Here is a collection of answers to some of our clients’ common concerns:
What are the strongest pieces of evidence to prove your car accident claim?
Much of the evidence in a successful car accident claim will focus either on showing that the other party was negligent or demonstrating the extent of your injuries. Commonly, evidence will include things like:
- A police report: This report can detail when and where an accident happened, who was involved and how it may have happened.
- Medical records: These can detail the type of injuries you suffered from an accident and how these injuries impact you.
- Video recordings: Street cameras and dash cameras can capture the moment an accident took place, giving an unbiased account of how the accident happened.
- Witness statements: A witness may have been present during an accident and can give an account of the events that took place.
Our attorneys at Callahan & King, PLLC, can help you gather strong evidence for your car accident case.
Can you take legal action if you contributed to the car accident?
Yes. Texas follows a modified comparative fault system that says plaintiffs can recover damages so long as they are not “more at fault” for their own injuries than the other party. This is known as the “51% bar” rule (since anyone who is 51% or more responsible would be barred from receiving any compensation). It is important to note, however, that your compensation will be reduced according to your share of the fault or blame for the accident. For example, if you have $10,000 worth of damages and you are 30% responsible for the accident, then you would only be due $7,000. A skilled car accident attorney can help you avoid being unfairly blamed for a crash.
How does a car accident impact your insurance rates?
Car accidents can increase your insurance rates for three to five years, especially if fault for the accident is attributed to you. This is another reason that it is imperative to have an experienced car accident attorney on your side.
