Truck Accident Representation

Catastrophic Truck Crashes Demand Experienced Legal Help

Commercial truck accidents are among the most devastating crashes on Texas roads. The sheer size and weight of 18-wheelers, semi-trucks, and tractor-trailers means that when something goes wrong, the results are often catastrophic – traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, amputations, severe burns, and wrongful death.

These cases are also far more complex than ordinary car accident claims. They can involve federal trucking regulations, corporate insurance carriers, multiple liable parties, and evidence that begins disappearing almost immediately after the crash.

The Johnson Law Firm helps injured victims and families across Texas pursue compensation for catastrophic injuries.

What makes truck accident cases different

  • Federal FMCSA safety regulations apply
  • Commercial insurance policies with larger limits
  • Multiple potentially liable parties
  • Black-box and ELD data that can disappear fast
  • Driver qualification and hours-of-service records
  • Maintenance and inspection histories

Commercial Vehicle Cases

Types of Commercial Vehicles We Handle

1

18-Wheelers & Semi-Trucks

Fully loaded tractor-trailers can weigh up to 80,000 lbs. Crashes at highway speed are frequently fatal or permanently disabling.

2

Tractor-Trailers

Jackknife crashes, underride collisions, and wide-turn accidents involving tractor-trailers cause some of the worst injuries we see.

3

Big Rig & Large Freight Trucks

Oversized loads, improperly secured cargo, and fatigued long-haul drivers are common factors in catastrophic big rig crashes.

4

Commercial Delivery Trucks

Company delivery vehicles and fleet trucks are subject to the same commercial liability rules as large freight carriers.

5

Tanker & Hazmat Trucks

Tanker rollovers and hazardous material spills can cause catastrophic burns, toxic exposure, and secondary explosion injuries.

6

Commercial Passenger Vehicles

Buses, shuttles, and other commercial passenger vehicles operated by companies or carriers fall under commercial liability rules.

Cases We Commonly Review

Do You Qualify for a Truck Accident Claim?

Many of the cases we review involve severe or permanent harm after a crash with a semi-truck, 18-wheeler, delivery truck, company truck, or other commercial vehicle anywhere in Texas.

Medical issues often involved

  • Involved in a collision with a commercial truck, 18-wheeler, semi-truck, or other large commercial vehicle
  • Diagnosed with a catastrophic injury – including TBI, spinal cord injury, paralysis, amputation, severe burns, or injuries requiring ICU hospitalization
  • Underwent surgery, inpatient rehabilitation, or are under ongoing specialist care as a result of the crash
  • Suffered permanent disability, loss of limb function, or a condition that limits your ability to work or live independently
  • Lost a family member in a commercial truck collision (wrongful death claim)

Helpful documentation

  • Crash or incident report
  • Photos or video from the scene
  • Hospital and emergency records
  • Insurance information
  • Witness names or contact details
  • Any letters or calls from the trucking company or insurer

Even if you do not have all of this information yet, you may still have a case worth reviewing.

Critical Evidence Can Disappear Quickly

After a serious truck accident, the trucking company and its insurer often begin their own investigation immediately. Black-box data, driver logs, inspection records, maintenance records, and camera footage can be altered, overwritten, or lost without prompt legal action.

Acting quickly after a serious truck crash can be critical to protecting key evidence and preserving your legal options.

We work on a contingent fee basis. Our clients are never at risk of paying any fees, costs or expenses out of pocket. All legal fees, court costs and other expenses are paid by the client only out of any judgment or settlement in the case. IF THERE IS NO RECOVERY THE CLIENT OWES NOTHING.

Why Time Matters

Acting Quickly After a Serious Truck Crash Can Be Critical

1

Evidence Disappears Fast

Black-box data, driver logs, dash cam footage, and inspection records can be overwritten or lost. The sooner a legal hold is placed on that evidence, the better.

2

Trucking Companies Don’t Wait

Commercial carriers and their insurers often begin their own investigation after a major crash. Having legal representation early helps level the playing field.

3

Texas Has a Filing Deadline

Personal injury and wrongful death claims in Texas are generally subject to a two-year statute of limitations. Do not assume you have missed the deadline without speaking to an attorney first.

4

Early Review Costs Nothing

A free case review with The Johnson Law Firm involves no obligation and no upfront cost. There is no reason to wait.

Why Are Truck Cases Different

Commercial Truck Cases Are More Than Just Another Auto Claim

Truck accident cases may involve federal safety rules, driver qualification requirements, hours-of-service regulations, maintenance failures, and corporate insurance policies that do not exist in an ordinary car wreck claim.

When a safety violation contributed to the crash, liability may extend beyond the driver to the trucking company and other responsible parties.

That is why early investigation matters so much in catastrophic truck accident cases.

How The Johnson Law Firm can help

  • Preserve key evidence before it disappears
  • Identify the potential liable parties
  • Review driver, carrier, and maintenance records
  • Insurance information
  • Document long-term damages in catastrophic injury cases
  • Deal directly with trucking insurers and defense teams
  • Prepare the case for trial when needed
