Ft. Worth, Texas Trucking Accidents Attorney

Cars, pickup trucks, SUVs, motorcycles, and 18-wheelers must all share the highways and drive cautiously to ensure safe passage from one place to the next. However, we all know that some drivers speed, drive recklessly, and may ultimately cause accidents. Unfortunately, when that careless driver is a truck driver, the end results can be devastating.


According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s 2009 Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS), there were 3,380 fatalities from large trucking accidents, and 2,551 of these fatalities were the occupants of other vehicles. When accidents involving 18-wheelers occur, you need to be able to prove that the truck driver was at fault to seek legal damages. Truckers can be found negligent for many reasons, including:
  • Aggressive driving/speeding
  • Drunk driving/drug use
  • Driver fatigue/distraction
  • Improper truck maintenance/mechanical malfunction
  • Unsafe loading
An experienced Ft. Worth personal injury attorney should be able to determine if a truck driver’s negligence was indeed responsible for your accident.


Victims of trucking accidents may sustain severe injuries or die. Because of the injuries, the survivors of these accidents may have to adapt to changes to their lifestyles such as the inability to work, decreased happiness in life, temporary or permanent paralysis, traumatic brain injury, and many other difficult changes. These victims need the legal advice of an experienced Ft. Worth truck accident attorney to find out if they are eligible for compensation for their injuries.
