Sorting Out Complex Legal and Factual Issues
In a truck accident, the issue in a personal injury claim is not just whether someone was negligent, but who was negligent and why they were negligent. Depending on the circumstances of your truck accident, the responsible party may be a trucker, a trucking company or another company.
When trucking companies push their drivers too hard or fail to maintain their vehicles, they can cause serious accidents through driver fatigue, jackknifes and other circumstances. They can be held legally responsible for their actions.
A truck accident case requires sophisticated analysis. Federal and Texas trucking regulations can impact a trucker or trucking company’s liability for an accident, and there may be GPS records available that would be helpful in demonstrating that the driver was speeding or another element of your claim. There also may be multiple, possibly overlapping insurance policies covering the truck that hit you.
Attorney Mark Hefter will personally handle your claim with great attention to detail. He will work with crash reconstruction experts, trucking industry experts and other credible experts to build your case.
