Case Number: 4:22-cv-03593
Judge: Andrew M. Edison
Court: United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas (Harris County)
Plaintiff's Attorney: Jose Luis Orihuela
Defendant's Attorney: Benjamin Graham House
Description: Houston, Texas personal injury lawyer Jose Luis Orihuela represented the Plaintiff who sued on an auto negligence theory relating to truck wreck.
The following five elements may typically be required to prove negligence: The existence of a legal duty that theendant owed the plaintiff, Defendant’s breach of that duty, Harm to the plaintiff, Defendant’s actions are the proximate cause of harm to the plaintiff, and Defendant’s actions are the cause-in-fact of harm to the plaintiff.
Texas uses a modified form of comparative negligence (also known as "proportionate responsibility" in Texas). This means that if you are found partially at fault for the injury, then your damages can be reduced.
Outcome: Settled for an undisclosed sum and dismissed with prejudice.
