Dedicated Legal Representation For Victims Of Commercial Truck Accidents
We depend on commercial vehicles to get food on our table, the gas for our vehicle, and get just about every consumer product we use to the stores. Every day, thousands of semi-trucks stream through Stafford, along Southwest Freeway and U.S. Route 90 Alternate, posing a serious danger to other motorists. Weighing 80,000 pounds fully loaded, more than 75,000 pounds more than your car or SUV, these tricks can cause serious, sometimes deadly injuries in a crash. If you or someone you love has been hurt in a semi-truck collision, our Stafford, TX truck accident lawyer can help you get the compensation you deserve.
Victims in Texas truck accident cases have the right to demand fair compensation from the trucker and, often, the trucking company the driver worked for. Truck accident claims have more complex legal issues than other types of traffic accident cases, requiring considerable resources and legal knowledge. At Culpepper Law Group, we have a long history of successful truck accident settlements, and we are ready to take on powerful opponents to get justice. Contact us today for a free consultation.
Our Strong Legal Representation Means The Best Possible Outcome For Your Claim
Litigating truck accident cases requires detailed knowledge of federal and state laws governing the legal operation of commercial vehicles. This includes how long drivers are permitted to operate, mandatory rest times, proper training, and the truck driver's responsibility to ensure the vehicle is safe to travel. Many truck accidents result from violations of safe driving laws and best practices; we use our in-depth knowledge of these statutes to pinpoint the cause of the wreck and how the driver is liable.
Trucking companies will do their best to get you to sign a fast, cheap settlement, sometimes before you’ve even healed from your injuries. They know your case is worth more than they offer and hope you’ll just sign without consulting a lawyer. Our Stafford truck accident lawyer protects you. We know the full value of your claim and are prepared to demand every penny from the driver and the carrier.
We Handle Complex Legal Issues In Truck Accident Claims
It’s not unusual for semi-truck accident cases to have more than one defendant, usually the trucker and their company (whether they were an employee or a contract driver), but sometimes the cargo loaders or the mechanic who worked on the truck, too. Multiple defendants means that we must prepare multiple cases; not every law firm has the extensive resources to do so, but we do and have a long track record of successful six and seven-figure settlements to prove it.
The attorneys at Culpepper Law Group work with experts in the field, including trucking safety experts and accident reconstructionists, who demonstrate how the driver’s negligence caused the wreck. We also book the services of medical experts, who draw the link between your injuries and the crash. This makes our case stronger, especially when they testify to a jury.
