The Trucking Lawyers Offer Legal Assistance and Quick Response Teams to Victims of Commerical Truck Accidents in TX

December 09, 2019 – – The Trucking Lawyers, based in Inver Grove Heights, Minnesota, are offering legal assistance and quick response teams to people who have been involved in a commercial truck accident in Texas. After reporting the accident to the police, seeking medical treatment, and consulting with a truck accident attorney, they will possibly need the help of a quick response team.

The quick response team is made up of various professionals, such as medical experts, accident reconstruction experts, attorneys, and investigators with the goal of gathering evidence for the victim’s case as early as possible. If the data is not obtained right away, it might get lost, making it much more difficult to prove the victim’s case and getting the deserved compensation. It should be noted that trucking companies often have their own team of experts already set up and ready to disprove the victim’s case.

Pete Kestner, one of the trucking lawyers from the firm, says, “When you are injured in a truck accident, you don’t want to have to worry about assembling your team of experts in order to manage your claim. However, in many cases that is exactly what you might need. We have access to the experts that are needed in order to protect your rights and assistance to obtain the compensation that you need and deserve. We will get the right team members assembled quickly that are needed for your specific case and then get them started right away on the most important tasks. A certain selection of professionals might be required by your case based on the facts of your individual case. We manage all of the legal issues related to your claim so that you can focus on your emotional and physical recovery. Do not delay if you were injured in a truck accident.”

Those who are interested in what should be done in this kind of situation might also want to check out The Trucking Lawyers article on tractor trailer accidents. The article focuses on the prevalence of trucking accidents in the interstates I-5 and I-10 in California, which include accidents involving trucks that also tow trailers. These trailers can cause additional problems during accidents, especially on dangerous highways. There are also unique problems for victims trying to get compensation because it is not that easy to determine liability. And to make matters worse for the victim, who is an ordinary citizen, most truck companies have a team of legal experts who are ready to protect the interests of these companies. It is therefore a good strategy to have a quick response team that The Trucking Lawyers can provide.

The law firm points out that while in most states, victims may be able to recover money for damages even if they are up to 50 percent at fault for a crash, in Texas, it is different. Victims in Texas may only be able to recover damages if they are under 50 percent at fault, according to the proportionate responsibility law. The usual causes of truck accidents in Texas include driver error and mechanical failures. According to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), the most prevalent cause of truck accidents is driver error. This includes cell phone use, driver fatigue, intoxication, texting, distractions, and inexperienced driving. And mechanical failures include tires, brakes, broken lights, broken signals, improper maintenance, and design and manufacturing errors.

Victims of truck accidents often suffer more serious injuries because trucks are much bigger than cars. Many of these injuries will have to be treated for many years, resulting in lost wages and possible inability to return to work. Victims may be awarded economic, non-economic, and punitive damages due to the truck accident. However, this will be a long process and the amount that can be recovered may be reduced if the victim is found to be partly at fault for the accident.
