Denton Trucking Injury Attorney

Denton County Truck Accident Lawyers for Injuries Caused by Driver Fatigue or Improper Maintenance

Crashes involving commercial trucks can be devastating. The size and momentum of these enormous vehicles can cause an incredible amount of damage that cannot be undone. The vast majority of these accidents are completely preventable. When truck drivers and the companies that employ them take their duties related to safety seriously, the odds of a serious accident drop considerably. Sadly, when these companies and drivers fail to exercise the proper level of care to prevent accidents, the results can be horrific.

While no amount of money can truly make up for the loss of life or serious injuries suffered, you deserve every penny the law allows you to recover. Our attorneys are skilled at investigating these crashes in order to prove the cause in court and get you any and all compensation you may be entitled to.

Denton County Lawyers Proving Negligence After a Truck Accident

After a catastrophic injury or wrongful death, it is important that we are able to prove exactly where the truck driver or trucking company failed in their duty to follow safe practices. The scene left behind after these major crashes is often chaotic, but we are skilled investigators. Careless trucking practices we have seen include:

• Hours of service violations - Strict laws exist limiting how long a driver can stay on the road without taking a break to sleep. Ignoring these crucial regulations can lead to driver fatigue, which may cause truck drivers to make fatal errors in judgment.
• Maintenance - Companies who put these big rigs on the road must maintain them carefully. Anything from brake failures to tire blowouts can cause massive accidents.
• Distraction - Drivers of commercial trucks should be focused on nothing but the road. Everyone is in extreme danger when a truck driver pays attention to anything but driving.
• Intoxication - Too many truck wrecks are caused by drunk or drugged driving. This practice is both illegal and wildly unsafe.
