Texas law permits loss-of-use damages in total-destruction cases

The Texas Supreme Court made a decision that restores logic and equity to property damages awards in auto accident claims. In its January 8, 2016 decision in J&D Towing, LLC v. American Alternative Insurance Corporation, the court ruled that Texas law permits loss-of-use damages in total-destruction cases.

This loss of use ruling is a victory for auto accident victims who were previously subjected to an irrational interpretation of Texas law by insurance companies.
