Houston 18-wheeler Truck Accident Lawyer
According to the National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration, in
the year 2000, around 457,000 large
trucks were involved in collisions
throughout the United States. These
trucks had a gross vehicle weight
rating over ten thousand pounds,
with over four thousand of these
accidents involving big-rigs
resulting in death. Large truck
accidents were responsible for one
out of every eight highway deaths in
2000.
Trucking and transportation liability cases involve a
complicated group of laws and large amounts of evidence.
Because the industry is heavily regulated, an accident
involving a truck is significantly more complex than an
automobile accident case. Frequently, an action can be
brought against both the driver and the insurance company.
Consequently, you need a firm that has the experience and
specialized knowledge to lead the investigation into the
cause of the accident and to help you collect the maximum
amount allowed under the law.
Many personal injuries are the result of 18-wheeler
accidents or collisions. Some examples of injuries that
result from auto accidents are cervical and lumbar sprains,
herniated and ruptured discs, fractures, knee injuries,
brain damage and paralysis. Victims of 18-wheeler accidents
may recover for pain and suffering, medical expenses,
property damage, lost wages and loss of earning capacity.
