Pearland injury claims are all about proving negligence by a preponderance of the evidence. If you cannot do this you will not fully maximize your recovery before filing a lawsuit. If a lawsuit is filed, you will lose your case at the courthouse if you do not provide the jury with enough evidence to prove negligence.
You must prove negligence before you can prevail. At the end of the evidence at trial the jury is read a jury charge by the court. After closing argument, the jury retires to deliberate. The jury must work together to discuss the case and the evidence and then ultimately answer the questions on the jury charge. Under Texas law, neglience means failure to use ordinary care, that is, failing to do that which a person of ordinary prudence would have done under the same or similar circumstances or doing that which a person of ordinary prudence would not have done under the same or similar circumstances.
