You must gather proof that another party was irresponsible and that carelessness caused your crash in order to establish whether you have a legitimate personal injury claim.

If your case satisfies these requirements, you may be entitled to compensation from the party or parties responsible. Our Dallas truck accident lawyers are happy to analyse your case without charge and go over your available legal alternatives.

Why Are Truck Accidents More Difficult Than Other Accident Types?

Due to the distinctive characteristics of commercial motor vehicles and the trucking sector, truck accident lawsuits in Dallas are frequently more complicated. These situations are difficult for a variety of reasons, including:

• More severe accidents and losses - Because an 18-wheeler can weigh up to 80,000 pounds when fully laden, the injuries it can cause in an accident are frequently devastating.

 • Trucks are complex vehicles - Trucks are also extremely sophisticated vehicles with systems that require specialised skills to inspect and maintain. Victims frequently require expensive medical treatment and suffer other losses that have an impact on their entire life. Truck accident victims require skilled injury lawyers that are familiar with the operation of commercial trucks and have experience looking into these types of situations.

• Special laws and restrictions - Truck drivers must additionally abide by state and federal laws governing the number of hours they can work and the timing of their required rest breaks. Attorneys must look into how the collision occurred and whether these laws and regulations were broken as part of a truck accident claim.

• There may be several insurance policies in effect - The victims of semi-truck accidents may be covered by additional layers of insurance. The other party's insurance policy would probably be the only source of reimbursement in a normal auto accident. There may be several avenues of compensation (different insurance companies) to pursue when a truck accident happens involving multiple culpable parties.
