Experienced McKinney-Dallas Truck Wreck Lawyer

Truck wrecks are much different from car accidents because many more people potentially could have contributed to the wreck.

• Truck driver: Many trucking accidents are caused by truck driver fatigue or negligence, including falling asleep at the wheel and failing to notice a car when making a wide turn.
• Truck cab owner: Some truck wrecks are caused by truck cab owners who don’t properly inspect and maintain their cab, including brakes, lights, tires and other truck parts that could fail and cause an accident.
• Truck trailer owner: Truck trailer owners are often different from the truck cab owners, but they also have a duty to properly inspect and maintain the trailer, including lights, brakes and tires.
• Trucking company: In many cases, truck drivers are hired through trucking companies. These companies have a duty to ensure that their drivers are properly licensed and to perform background checks.
• Truck loader: Some truck wrecks are caused by load shifting or improper load balance, including truck rollovers. Load shifting can occur if the load is not properly secured or loaded.
• Truck and truck part manufacturer: In some trucking accidents, defective parts cause or contribute to an accident, including defective brakes, tires, engine parts, hitches, wires and lights.

We help truck accident victims and their families with claims involving wrongful death and serious injury, including whiplash, soft-tissue injury, traumatic brain injury and paralysis.
