Truck Accident Settlement in Fort Worth and North Texas

Motor carriers are regulated by state and federal agencies. Many times truck wrecks result from failure of the driver to follow regulations, as well as from inadequate maintenance and improper driver screening and training techniques by the company. There are many technical aspects to truck wreck investigation that require quick attention and action on the part of an attorney in order to preserve valuable evidence. If you have been injured in an accident involving a truck, or a loved one has died in a truck crash or wreck in the North Texas area, our personal injury law firm may be able to obtain a settlement to compensate you for your injuries or your loss.

There are a number of factors that contribute to trucking accidents on our Texas roadways.

• Most trucks have on board e-mail or text messaging. A quick temporary restraining order may be necessary to obtain the hard drive before the trucking company removes it.

Our law firm was successful in achieving a settlement on behalf of a woman who was in an 18-wheeler accident because the driver was text messaging.

• As a border state, Texas is particularly susceptible to unregulated trucks, unsafe trucks, unqualified truck drivers, or drivers using a fake truck driver license. NAFTA(North American Free Trade Agreement) has resulted in a number of these dangerous trucks being involved in truck jackknife accidents, rollover accidents, rear end and head on collisions.

Our firm has achieved truck accident settlements for our clients. In one case, the truck driver involved in the accident had a fake trucker's license. We were able to prove that a trucking company did not follow the law requiring it to run a driver's license check on its drivers before hiring them, and won a favorable settlement for our client.

• Urban sprawl in the DFW area means that 18-wheelers share the roadway with much smaller cars. When a car slides under a big-rig in a collision, it is known as an under-ride accident, and it often results in catastrophic injuries.

Whether the cause is lack of interstate regulation or the growing Dallas Fort Worth area, we are seeing an increase in dump truck accidents and garbage truck accidents.
