Beaumont Truck Accident Lawyer

Truck Accident Claims

Semi-truck driving on a highway

Road accidents involving commercial trucks such as 18-wheelers, semis, garbage trucks, oil tankers, and others are among the most violent and damaging to smaller cars and their passengers. When one of these massive trucks collides with a smaller vehicle, those inside the car generally suffer the worst; serious life-threatening injuries and even death may ensue. That is why our firm is so passionate about protecting the rights of crash victims.

Our Beaumont truck accident lawyer operates on the principle that road safety is a right everyone should enjoy when they take to the road for whatever reason. When you have been harmed through the negligent or wrongful actions of a truck driver or commercial trucking company, we put our entire team to work immediately to help get you the justice you deserve.

The Importance of Defending Truck Accident Victims

Truckers must follow the detailed safety regulations implemented by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration. Despite the fact that these safety rules have been established since 2000 to decrease accidents, more than 20,000 deaths a year still occur in trucking mishaps. The personal injury and wrongful death claims resulting from these often involve huge sums of money.

That is why commercial trucking companies and their insurers work aggressively to avoid being held responsible. They may immediately employ their own investigators, accident specialists, experts, and others who will work against your claim.
