Houston Truck Accident Attorneys

If you’ve recently suffered injuries in a truck accident, you’re not alone. We understand that the aftermath of such an incident can be overwhelming, both emotionally and financially. Our dedicated team of experienced truck accident attorneys have spent their careers helping others who have suffered injuries in truck accidents. With our extensive knowledge and proven track record, we’re here to provide the support and legal representation you need during this challenging time.

At the Ammons Law Firm, we recognize that every case is unique, and we are committed to fighting for the justice and compensation you deserve. Our truck accident lawyers will work tirelessly to investigate the circumstances of your accident, gather evidence, and build a strong case on your behalf. You can trust us to navigate the complex legal process and negotiate with insurance companies, allowing you to focus on your recovery and well-being. Remember, you don’t have to face this journey alone.

When choosing a truck accident lawyer to handle your legal claims, you need to make sure the lawyer has the experience, training, and resources to beat the other side. Our Houston truck accident attorneys have prosecuted claims against trucking companies for over three decades. Together, our truck accident lawyers have over a century of combined experience. This experience has established our firm as a go-to truck accident law firm in Houston and throughout the state. We have the resources to hold all wrongdoers accountable.

Holding all wrongdoers is important for your case and for the motoring public.

First, holding a trucker, trucking company, manufacturer, or service company responsible for their mistakes leads to change. Victims of serious injuries do not want others to experience the same suffering. Holding wrongdoers accountable creates a financial disincentive to continue in the wrongful conduct. The more often a driver or corporation is held accountable for their wrongful conduct, the more difficult it becomes for the wrongdoer to remain in the commercial trucking industry. This makes our communities safer.

Second, holding all wrongdoers accountable ensures our clients receive the compensation they deserve. In a serious semi-truck accident, our clients sustain injuries that change their lives forever. The cost of medical care alone often exceeds the available insurance of the negligent driver. Identifying and proving all wrongdoing increases the total funds available to compensate our injured clients, resulting in larger recoveries.

We recently resolved a case for a client who lost her husband in a truck crash. The husband was traveling on I-35 early in the morning when he crashed into the back of a crash attenuator dump truck parked next to a moving lane of traffic in hours of darkness. The driver of the truck failed to provide adequate warning to passing motorists by alerting them of the truck’s presence. It was only a matter of time before someone would hit the truck. Tragically, a young husband and father headed to work was the victim.

Many firms would have sued the truck driver and moved on. We didn’t. We knew that if the trucking company were not held responsible, its drivers would continue to engage in the negligent behavior that caused the crash. Not only were we able to successfully hold the immediate company responsible, but we were able to hold the out-of-state parent company responsible, increasing the likelihood of additional training for drivers to avoid such negligent behavior.

This is one of many examples of why clients choose our Houston-based truck accident law firm to prosecute their claims. When you hire The Ammons Law Firm to prosecute your truck accident lawsuit, you can have confidence that you will receive the highest quality legal representation available in the industry. Our truck accident attorneys have the financial resources, industry knowledge, and legal experience to hold all wrongdoers accountable and recover full compensation on your behalf.

We will help you. We have the training, experience, and resources to help you. We have the processes and procedures, relationships with experts, and the track record to help you.

Legal Damages and Compensation Available in Truck Accident Lawsuits

If you have been injured in a truck crash, you have the right to hold the wrongdoer responsible for all harm caused by their actions. The financial costs of a truck accident are staggering; from medical bills to lost wages, truck accident victims are often financially devastated and unable to enjoy the life they led before the accident. This injustice is the very reason personal injury law was formed and the very wrong it seeks to remedy.

Under Texas law, if another person’s negligence injured you, you are entitled to recover economic and non-economic damages. Economic damages are the financial costs associated with an injury. These include medical expenses, future medical care, lost wages, and changes in future income. For instance, if you are seriously injured and cannot return to work, the wrongdoer must provide you with financial compensation to offset your lost earnings.

Non-economic damages focus on your mental, physical, and emotional harm. A severe injury is a traumatic event that leads to dramatic life changes. While it is difficult to pinpoint the exact value of these losses, the law provides compensation for pain and suffering, changes in lifestyle, and other intangible harms caused by an injury. These damages are often significant because they change a person’s quality of life. For instance, losing the ability to play with your children is invaluable, and the wrongdoer must be held accountable when their actions take that right away.

Our truck accident attorneys will build your case to ensure you receive all compensation you are entitled to under the law. 

Our Houston 18-Wheeler Crash Lawyers Prosecute All Types of Commercial Vehicle Claims

Following a truck accident, it is crucial to begin the investigation and litigation process as soon as possible. Trucking companies are very familiar with litigation and move quickly to escape liability. Waiting to begin the litigation process may allow important evidence to be lost, making it more difficult to prove liability and damages.

Additionally, under Texas law, the statute of limitations in personal injury cases is two years from the date of injury. This two-year deadline acts as a bar to recovery. If the lawsuit is not filed within two years, your right to sue the trucking company is lost.

At The Ammons Law Firm, we immediately notify the trucking company and all other interested parties of a pending lawsuit and identify all evidence that needs to be preserved. This ensures that no evidence is lost from the accident and gives us time to formulate a legal strategy against all potential parties long before the statute of limitations runs.

Hold All Responsible Parties Accountable

A truck accident case has many potentially responsible parties, including the truck driver, trucking company, shipping company, service and repair company, and manufacturer of the truck or parts. Truck drivers and their companies are generally the first parties sued. However, as litigation advances and further information is revealed, it is not uncommon for more parties to be added to the lawsuit. This ensures that all wrongdoers are held accountable for their actions, and you receive all compensation you are entitled to under the law.

Once all parties are properly identified and joined in the lawsuit, it is the job of your attorney to negotiate a favorable settlement on your behalf. If the parties cannot agree on a settlement amount, we get to bring your case to trial, and we will have a jury determine who is responsible and award you damages according to the injuries you suffered in the crash.

Dallas, Texas

18-wheeler Accident Claims and Lawsuits

Following an 18-wheeler accident, our attorneys will begin building your case to maximize your recovery and hold all negligent parties accountable for their actions. During the litigation process, there will be multiple opportunities for the trucking company to accept responsibility and settle your claim for a fair amount. However, if the trucking company does not accept responsibility and settles your lawsuit for an amount that compensates you for the pain and suffering you have endured, we will continue litigation until they accept responsibility and pay or are forced to accept responsibility and pay at trial.

Step 1
Consultation with our Trucking Attorneys

Following a truck accident, one of our truck accident attorneys will meet with you in person, over the phone, or via Zoom to learn more about you and your family. We want you to feel comfortable and trust that we have the skill and experience to advocate on your behalf. During the consultation stage, we will gather information from you that we will need to conduct our investigation into the accident quickly and thoroughly. We will also learn more about your goals and what you hope to achieve through your lawsuit.

Step 2
Investigating the Truck Accident

During the investigation stage, we will begin compiling the information related to the truck accident needed to prosecute your claim. During this stage of the truck accident lawsuit, we gather the information that is available independent of the defendant, such as how the crash occurred, the driving history of the trucker, the safety rating of the trucking company, and where the defendants are located. We also begin gathering information about your injuries and your life to better understand the pain and suffering you are going through and the potential costs associated with the crash. During the investigation stage, we will form a general theory of liability and identify the parties to the lawsuit.

Step 3
Filing the Lawsuit

The theory of liability developed during the investigation stage provides the basis of your lawsuit. The first parties to the lawsuit will generally be you as the plaintiff and the truck driver and trucking company as the defendants. Once a lawsuit is filed, the trucker and trucking company must hire a law firm to defend them. This costs money, and the trucking company and its insurers do not want to pay legal fees in a case where they know they will eventually lose at trial. Before a lawsuit is filed, the trucking company does not need a lawyer, so they do not have legal fees, meaning they have no financial incentive to settle the claim.

Step 4
Demand to Settle the Lawsuit

With the information gained through the investigation stage, we will create a demand for settlement. This demand is a detailed presentation that sets forth the theory of liability and your damage model. The theory of liability walks the defendants through the accident, the wrongful conduct of the truck driver, and evidence that the truck driver was at fault, including witness statements, video footage, police reports, and your own testimony. The damage model walks the defendant through the effects their wrongful conduct has had on your life, including the injuries you have suffered, the cost of medical care received and the cost of future medical care needed, how your injuries have changed your life, the pain and suffering you have endured because of your injuries, and how your injuries have affected others in your life, such as your family and friends. The demand for settlement gives the defendant a picture of what your trial will look like if they do not accept liability and settle your lawsuit for the amount you and our attorneys have determined to be fair and reasonable.

Step 5
Discovery

If the trucking company does not accept responsibility and pay our demanded amount, we will continue forward through the discovery process. During this stage, both sides are permitted information unavailable to the other side. For instance, we will take the sworn testimony of the truck driver that caused the accident, as well as corporate representatives from the trucking company responsible for safety and training. During this stage, we learn a great deal about the trucking company and its culture. Often during this stage, we learn of wrongful conduct that was not available during the investigation stage, such as phone records that show the truck driver was using a phone prior to the crash or that the trucking company forced the trucker to drive beyond legal limits. This information is very important because it strengthens our theory of liability and puts significant pressure on the trucking company to settle the lawsuit for the amount we demanded.

Step 6
Mediating your Claim

Mediation is the first formal opportunity to settle your lawsuit. Mediation is an organized meeting between the lawyers from both parties where a neutral third-party mediator helps the parties reach a decision on settlement. The defendant trucking company will express its reservations about settling for the amount you and our attorneys demanded, and we will express our basis for such a demand. The neutral third-party mediator will help both parties see the other party’s view with the goal of reaching an agreement. With your trial nearing and the risk of a bankrupting verdict, the defendant trucking company is running out of time to accept responsibility and pay the demanded amount. Many cases are settled at mediation or following mediation.

Step 7
Trial

If the trucking company refuses to accept responsibility for the crash and your injuries and damages, we get to take them to trial, where a group of your community has the opportunity to determine the value of your loss. This means we get to ask the jury how much money would fairly compensate you for back pain that has changed every aspect of your life or a facial scar that will have a lifelong effect on your self-esteem and confidence. No one should have to suffer these losses because of someone else’s mistakes, and the defendant trucking company is at risk of bankruptcy, depending on the jury’s decision. Our trucking lawyers will have already taken your case through a mock trial in our courtroom, where a jury from your community will have determined the outcome of the case and placed a value on it. Given our preparation, it is not uncommon for our cases to settle right before trial, during the trial, or prior to the jury returning their verdict once the defendants see how well our attorneys have represented you. It is rare to find defense lawyers that have the trial experience and training that our attorneys have, and there is no substitute for trial experience.


If the trucking company will not settle your claim for a favorable amount, our Houston truck accident lawyers get to bring your case to trial, where the trucking company risks a nuclear verdict that could put them out of business. Having skilled trial attorneys with a long history of success puts the risk on the defendants and increases the likelihood of a favorable settlement.

Determine What Kind of Truck Accident You Were Involved In To Begin Recovery

Houston-Truck-Accident-LawyersIf you are not entirely sure what kind of truck accident you were involved in or why it matters, it is important to have a trained lawyer investigate the crash. Different truck accidents point to different liable parties. For instance, if a tire blows out and causes an accident, the tire manufacturer or repair shop may be liable for a defective product or negligent maintenance and repair. Regardless of what kind of truck accident you were involved in, our Houston truck accident attorneys will investigate your case and determine who was responsible for the crash.

Questions Frequently Asked to Our Truck Accident Lawyers

 

  • Can I receive compensation for my injuries if I am partially responsible for the truck accident?

    Yes. Under Texas comparative negligence law, you are allowed to recover financial compensation as long as you are not found to be more than 50% responsible. This means that your actions, as well as the actions of the other parties, will be considered when determining who is responsible for the crash.

  • Who determines responsibility in a Texas truck crash?

    Under Texas law, a judge or jury will decide responsibility. However, since many cases settle before trial, the trier of fact is rarely called upon to determine responsibility.  Instead, trained attorneys use the litigation process to negotiate a favorable settlement based on the facts of the case. If you decide not to settle, we get to take your case to trial, where the trier of fact assigns responsibility based on the evidence.

  • Should I consult a truck accident lawyer if I am not sure who is responsible?

    It is often a good idea to speak with a truck accident attorney after any truck accident. Truckers and their employers are subject to special rules that must be followed to ensure safe travel. Further, many parties are involved in the maintenance, loading, and transportation of a semi-truck, and each may have some level of fault in a truck crash. Trained truck accident lawyers know how to identify potentially responsible parties and gather the information needed to determine fault.

  • How much does it cost to hire a truck accident attorney?

    There are no upfront costs. Truck accident attorneys work on a contingency fee basis, meaning the lawyer’s fee is a percentage of your recovery. Typically, contingency fee agreements are structured depending on when your case is resolved. For instance, if your case goes to trial, the lawyer has significantly more of his own time and money invested in the case and will require a larger percentage of any recovery. On the other hand, if your case is resolved without having to file a lawsuit, the attorney will typically receive a smaller percentage since the case didn’t require as much time and effort.

    Under our contingency fee contract, you are not responsible for any costs associated with your case unless we win a recovery for you.

  • Can I settle my truck accident claim without filing a lawsuit?

    Yes. a truck accident claim may settle without filing a lawsuit. Ideally, you and your lawyer hope to resolve your case for a favorable amount as quickly as possible so you can receive the financial support you need to move forward. However, filing a lawsuit and going to trial is the right thing to do when the insurance provider does not willingly settle for what you deserve. If the trucking company does not believe they are at fault or that you were injured, they will be reluctant to settle the claim without being forced.

  • How does a trial lawyer help my case?

    Defense lawyers know the personal injury attorneys that want to take cases to trial. Since a trial is required before a defendant is legally responsible, if your attorney is not a trial lawyer with a track record of courtroom success, the defense has little motivation to settle your case for a fair amount. It is like asking a child to clean their room when they know there is no consequence for disobeying. The risk of trial against our firm gives defendants a strong motivation to settle a lawsuit.

  • Are truck accident claims handled differently than car accident claims?

    Truck accident claims tend to be more complicated than car accident claims. An insurance provider is only responsible for damages up to the insured’s policy limits. In car accident cases, it is often more expensive for an insurance company to fight a claim than pay policy limits. However, in a truck accident claim, the trucking company must carry at least $750,000 in insurance coverage, a substantial amount of money to pay without a fight. Additionally, in a truck accident lawsuit, there are often more than two parties, complicating liability.

  • What if a truck crashes into more than one car?

    If other motorists are involved in a crash, their fault must be determined when considering liability. Additionally, if there is only one insurance policy to cover all injured motorists, the available proceeds must be distributed between all parties according to their loss. It is important to have a good lawyer in these situations.

  • Is the trucking company’s insurance responsible for the financial damages caused by a truck accident?

    In most situations, when you bring a lawsuit against a trucking company, the company’s insurance provider is responsible for hiring lawyers to defend the trucking company and is responsible for paying damages to injured motorists. The purpose of liability insurance is to protect motorists from liability resulting from an accident. Before a commercial trucking company can operate as a motor carrier, it must obtain proof of insurance to ensure motorists injured by a covered truck can be compensated.

  • Can I recover money to pay for my medical expenses after a truck accident?

    Yes. Under Texas law, an injured motorist can recover all expenses incurred due to another party’s wrongful conduct. This includes the cost of reasonable medical care in the past and medical care that, in a reasonable probability, will be required in the future. In a personal injury lawsuit, it is vital to properly identify future medical care to ensure you receive all compensation available to you under the law.

  • Can I recover money for my pain and suffering after a truck accident?

    Yes. Under Texas Law, injured motorists can recover legal damages for the pain and suffering they have experienced because of their injuries.

  • Does it matter what truck accident attorney I hire?

    Yes. Lawyers are not created equal. When your health, financial future, and the stability of your family hang in the balance, you need an attorney that has a proven track record of success.
