Truck Accident Attorneys in Houston, Serving Clients Nationwide

Injured? Put a Firm on Your Side That Cares!

The immense size of big rig trucks makes them a force to be reckoned with on the road. While other drivers have to be cautious when interacting with these massive vehicles, this does not mean that truck drivers themselves lack all responsibility when it comes to driving safely. If you were injured in an accident caused by a truck driver, they can and should be held responsible for their negligent behavior.

This is why we have dedicated our practice to be a voice for the victims of these accidents and would be honored to do the same for you.

Understanding the Different Types of Truck Accidents

Truck accidents can be caused by a variety of factors, from driver fatigue to vehicle malfunctions. Understanding the different types of truck accidents can help you determine the best course of action if you or a loved one has been injured in a collision.

Some common types of truck accidents include:

  • Rear-end collisions
  • Jackknife accidents
  • Underride accidents
  • Blind spot accidents
  • Tire blowouts
  • Lost load accidents

At Webster Vicknair MacLeod, our experienced Houston truck accident attorneys have handled all types of cases and can help you navigate the legal process with ease. We understand the unique challenges of truck accident cases and will fight to get you the compensation you deserve.

What are the causes of truck accidents?

Accidents involving 18-wheelers are much different than ordinary car accidents. There are numerous licensing and regulatory issues that can come into play and most trucking companies are backed by powerful insurance corporations. The best way to further your chances of success is to get to the root of the accident – who caused it and why?

Some of the most common reasons that truck accidents occur include:

  • Faulty truck equipment
  • A fatigued driver
  • Insufficient driver training
  • Overloaded trailers
  • Poor truck maintenance
  • A distracted driver
  • Pressure to meet load deadlines

If you can show that the truck driver ultimately caused the accident and therefore your injuries, the odds of recovering compensation increase significantly. Personal injury claims are built around negligence and this means submitting proof that responsibility falls on the truck driver’s shoulders.
