How car accident settlements are calculated in Texas
There is no single reliable formula for valuing a Texas injury claim. This calculator uses a rule-based educational model that considers the information reported about injuries, treatment, financial impact, liability, and available coverage. It returns a broad gross range—not a prediction of settlement, verdict, or net recovery.
Factors that may affect a car-accident evaluation
Clear liability evidence, documented injuries, treatment records, objective testing when medically appropriate, documented lost income, and evidence of lasting limitations may affect how a claim is evaluated. Available coverage can limit practical recovery, but coverage alone does not establish claim value.
What can reduce your car accident settlement
Disputed or shared responsibility, causation disputes, preexisting conditions, treatment gaps, limited documentation, and restricted insurance coverage may affect an evaluation. Texas proportionate-responsibility rules can reduce a recovery and may bar recovery when a claimant is more than 50% responsible.
Texas minimum insurance and your recovery
Texas law establishes minimum auto-liability requirements, but actual coverage, limits, exclusions and collectability must be verified. UM/UIM may also be relevant when its policy terms and legal requirements are satisfied.
