TRUCK ACCIDENTS - KEMAH, TX

Kemah Truck Accident Lawyer

In 2020, the TXDoT reported over 22,000 tractor trailer accidents causing 5,952 injuries. In many cases, the injuries suffered from a truck wreck can be life-changing. These trucks can weigh anywhere from 35,000 to 80,000 pounds, which means truck crashes often lead to debilitating injuries.

 

I-45, I-10, 225 and 610 are just a few of the heavily traveled highways in the Houston area. Unfortunately, wrecks occur frequently on these busy roads and many of these accidents involve heavy trucks and tractor-trailers.

How We Investigate Truck Accidents

Truck crashes can be extremely complex and often involve multiple liable parties and a tremendous amount of evidence. Our Kemah truck crash attorneys work diligently to find all possible amounts of money available to make a recovery on our clients’ behalf. We want to ensure that our clients get adequate recovery for their damages.

 

Responsible truck accident parties could include:

  • the truck driver;
  • the truck driver’s employer;
  • the trucking company;
  • the owner of the trailer;
  • the manufacturer of the truck;
  • the loading company; and/or
  • the manufacturer of truck parts.

 

In most cases, trucking companies will involve their legal team right after the accident occurs. Insurance companies might even hire an accident reconstructionist at the outset of the investigation. Since they are for-profit businesses, insurance companies will strategize to diminish your claim and compensate you as little as possible.

Therefore, it is crucial that you speak with an experienced Kemah truck wreck lawyer to discuss your legal options. Once you sign with our firm, we will immediately begin investigating your case.

If needed, our truck crash attorneys can even hire experts like accident reconstructionists and trucking safety experts to help strengthen your claim.

West & West attorneys investigate, and gather important evidence from the crash site which may include the following:

  • Tractor-trailer black box data;
  • Eyewitness testimony;
  • Cell phone records;
  • Video footage, including security camera and dash cam footage;
  • Driver logbooks;
  • Photos of the crash site; and
  • Other forms of crash data.

Proving Negligence In Kemah Truck Wrecks

Under Texas law, in order to recovery for personal injury damages, the claimant cannot be more than fifty percent (50%) negligent. For this reason, it is extremely important that an experienced truck crash lawyer evaluate your claim.

 

While advocating for our clients, our investigative team has successfully proven certain clients’ actions did not contribute to the accident. While every case is different, we do our best to obtain justice for our clients.

Consulting one of our truck accident attorneys can provide you and your loved ones with more clarity on your case.

For a FREE, no-obligation consultation with an experienced Kemah truck crash lawyer, please call 713-222-WEST (9378). There are no upfront costs and we don’t get paid unless we win your truck accident case and you receive compensation.

 

Please call 713-222-WEST (9378) and let us review your claim. You deserve justice and you may be entitled to significant compensation. Don’t gamble with a potential settlement. Let us help you!

What You Can Do to Prevent Car Accidents in Alvin, TX

There are some car wrecks that are simply unavoidable on your part. Maybe a drunk driver doesn’t stop in time and rear-ends you, or perhaps another driver blows through a red light and T-bones you. Though some collisions are out of your hands, there are ways you can avoid being in (or causing) car accidents, including:

  • Be patient at lights to avoid red-light runners
  • Always focus on the road, even if it means listening to a song on the radio you don’t like or leaving a phone call unanswered
  • Pull into traffic slowly, and make sure your path is clear before entering the roadway
  • Get your car tuned up regularly to make sure your brakes and other systems are working properly
  • Drive defensively, always responding to other drivers’ actions. Never rely on other drivers to respond to your own actions
  • Leave room between you and the car in front of you so you can brake in time if needed

I used West & West for my personal injury claim - a slip and fall that involved a trip to the emergency room. Michael West was able to successfully get my medical bills paid and I walked away with money in my pocket. Both Michael and his paralegal were very helpful throughout the whole process.

West and West did an excellent job representing our family's estate settlement during the probate process. They are skilled, up to date, and were patient with us and the beneficiaries and helped us keep everything on track during our extended process. Laura and the others were always amazing with us too.

I enjoyed dealing with a local law firm with strong roots in the community. Probating my Uncle's Will was emotional and personal, but the staff made the process easier than I ever imagined. The process was smooth and easy. The care shown by the staff is knowledgeable and caring.
