Why Houston Truck Accident Victims Need Attorneys

A truck accident claim is not like a standard Houston car accident claim. It involves a trucking company and federal trucking laws. These factors could affect your personal injury lawsuit. You may need to navigate laws by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration to find out if the truck driver or company was in violation. You may also need to file a claim against a large and powerful insurance provider – one that will not want to maximize your payout. Help from one of our East Texas truck accident lawyers can resolve these issues for you. Your personal injury attorney will take care of tough negotiations and red tape while you rest and recover.

What Causes Truck Accidents?

Most truck accidents trace back to the same main group of causes. Human error is a driving force behind trucking accidents in Texas. Truck drivers and others on the roadway can make careless or reckless decisions that compromise the safety of everyone else on the road. It only takes one poor choice behind the wheel to cause a devastating truck accident.

  • Truck driver negligence
  • Another driver’s negligence
  • Truck deficiencies or breakdowns
  • Equipment malfunctions
  • Lost cargo
  • Trucking company negligence
  • Roadway hazards

Identifying the cause of your truck accident in Houston is one of the first steps toward obtaining a fair compensation award. The person or company ultimately behind your truck accident could be financially responsible for your medical bills, lost wages, property repairs and other damages.

Who Is Responsible for Your Truck Accident?

The trucking company that oversees the truck and driver will be responsible for most accidents. Trucking companies are vicariously liable for on-duty drivers. An act of negligence from the driver, such as texting and driving or speeding, will become the responsibility of the company. The company will also be accountable for its own acts of negligence, such as failing to adequately train its drivers.

In other truck accident cases, a party such as a cargo loader could be legally responsible for failing to reasonably prevent the accident. If the truck lost a load on the road, those who loaded the truck may have broken federal load securement rules. We have also brought cases against the City of Houston for dangerous roads, as well as manufacturing companies for defective parts. Work with one of our personal injury lawyers to find out who may owe you compensation. We have experience fighting and winning against many types of defendants.
