Partial Fault Motorcycle Crash

Question: Can I be partially at fault for a motorcycle accident?

Answer:

In every case in Texas, whether it’s a motorcycle accident, a car accident or a trucking accident, one of the things that has to be looked at is who caused it. The reality is that we’re all human beings. Maybe both parties have some involvement. The way Texas law addresses that is through what’s called, comparative negligence. What that means is a jury gets to decide if were you 10% at fault. If so, you still get to recover 90% of all the harm that was done to you. Even if you were partly to blame, that doesn’t affect the fact that you have rights. You just need an experienced law firm who knows how to address all the issues of comparative negligence.
