Anna Truck Accident Attorneys

Experienced Lawyers for Commercial Truck Accident Injuries in Anna, Texas

A truck accident can be deadly. When a much larger vehicle collides with your own, the resulting injuries can leave you out of a job and unable to live life as you used to. In cases involving commercial truck accidents, the defendant will often be represented by corporate lawyers who will look for any loopholes they can use to avoid responsibility for your injuries.

A personal injury lawyer can be your greatest advocate as you deal with the aftermath of a commercial truck wreck, making sure you will be rightfully compensated for lost income, medical bills, and emotional trauma suffered as a result of the accident. The attorneys at Burress Injury Law have a track record of winning difficult cases, and we will fight to secure a settlement that will fully address your needs.

Causes Behind Commercial Truck Accidents

When determining liability for accidents involving commercial trucks, the attorneys at Burress Injury Law can help build a strong case for your settlement by pinpointing how the accident happened. Some of these causes may include:

• Overworked drivers: In many cases, commercial truck drivers are held to unrealistic standards by their employers, resulting in fatigued or sleep-deprived drivers with slower reaction times and dulled awareness.
• Malfunctioning Trucks: Like any other vehicle, a commercial truck that has not been properly maintained can be a risk to others. Many truck accidents are caused by issues such as brake failure or tires breaking down.
• Driving While Intoxicated: A truck driver who is impaired by drugs or alcohol poses a massive threat to other drivers due to impairments such as decreased coordination and difficulty estimating distances.

Our lawyers are relentless in investigating the cause behind a truck accident, and we will exhaust every legal measure to obtain evidence in support of your case. We will identify the liable parties and make sure you can take the right steps to maximize the financial compensation you can receive.

Handling the Aftermath of a Commercial Truck Accident

You will have much to address after an accident involving a commercial truck. First and foremost, you should tend to your and your passengers' safety, making note of any injuries, and moving your vehicle to a safe place not far from the scene of the accident if possible. Once the scene is safe, call the police and exchange information with the commercial driver and anyone else who was involved. Do not take any injuries lightly: seek medical attention, preferably at an emergency room, if you feel any discomfort, pain, or restricted mobility of your body.

As soon as possible after the accident, you should contact a personal injury attorney who can collect evidence from the scene, which can include witness testimony, video footage, and physical evidence such as tire marks on the road. The earlier you consult with an attorney, the more evidence is likely to be available. Our lawyers can make sure all available evidence is preserved so that it can be used during your case.

You may also be approached by a commercial trucking company or an insurance company that provided coverage for the truck driver. You may be asked questions about the accident, or you may be offered a settlement. We advise you not to speak to the company without legal representation, as any statement you make to them could hurt your case. Our attorneys can communicate with insurance companies and work to negotiate a settlement that will provide you with full compensation for your damages.
