Trucking Accidents and Semi-Truck Crashes

Highway safety is an issue of great concern to most Texas drivers. In addition to personal injury and auto accident cases, the personal injury lawyers at Parker & Montgomery also handle injuries and deaths involving trucking accidents. Semi truck and eighteen wheeler accidents present unique issues not necessarily associated with a typical motor vehicle accident. These differences include:

• Governmental rules and regulations
• Greater likelihood of serious injuries or deaths
• Insurance coverage issues
• Negligent hiring and supervision claims
• Negligent truck maintenance claims

Trucking litigation is a burgeoning area of personal injury law. With the explosion of trucks on Texas highways, accidents between cars, motorcycles, and semi-trailer trucks are on the rise. At Parker & Montgomery, we understand the unique legal and practical problems associated with truck crashes and have experience dealing with the issues that arise in such cases. Our goals include protecting the victim where litigation is necessary, but also providing resources to help educate the public when injuries are caused by the negligence or carelessness of trucking companies, in hopes of increasing road safety.
