18-Wheeler Accidents

Corpus Christi 18-Wheeler Accident Attorneys

Immediate Support After a Truck Collision

​Eighteen-wheeler and commercial trucking accidents are very different from your average fender bender.

Many times, the accident involves truck driver fatigue, overweight and improper loading, over-hours work and falsified logbooks, truck maintenance, and many other issues that are unique to this field of litigation.

Having our investigators at the scene quickly after a truck accident will preserve the evidence and put us on the same level as the trucking company.

We will hold the truck driver, insurance company, trucking company, and any other liable parties fully accountable for your losses and injuries.

If you or a loved one have encountered one of these 18-wheelers or commercial trucks on the roadway and have endured life-altering injuries in an accident, such as a spinal cord injury, a herniated disk, or brain injury, or lost a loved one to fatal injuries, we are here to help.

Corpus Christi Truck Accident Support

Living in Corpus Christi, we understand the unique challenges our community faces when it comes to truck accidents. The bustling Port of Corpus Christi and the heavy traffic on I-37 and US-77 mean that commercial trucks are a common sight on our roads. Unfortunately, this also increases the likelihood of serious accidents involving 18-wheelers.

In the aftermath of a truck accident, it's crucial to have a team that knows the local landscape.

Our team is committed to holding all responsible parties accountable, from the truck driver to the trucking company and their insurers. By choosing us, you're not just getting legal representation; you're getting a team that truly understands Corpus Christi and its residents. We can help you navigate this difficult time and work towards the compensation you deserve.

Commonly Asked Questions

Is it necessary to hire a personal injury attorney for a trucking accident case?
