Texas Truck Accident Attorney

Accidents involving 18-wheeler trucks, tractor trailers, and semi-trucks happen all too often on Texas highways. Unfortunately, due to the size of the vehicles involved, many of these accidents involve catastrophic injuries and property damage. Flo is experienced in the legal issues surrounding truck accidents and he can use that knowledge to provide clients with top-tier representation.

Common Causes of Truck Accidents

• Truck Driver Error: Errors made by truck drivers are far too common. Truck drivers are encouraged to meet certain mileage goals in order to gain compensation, which sometimes results in truckers driving when drowsy. Also, due to the sheer size of the vehicles they drive, even a small error in judgment by an experienced truck driver can lead to a disastrous accident. Trucking accidents are often deadly or result in catastrophic injury including paralysis and brain damage.
• Improperly Loaded Cargo: Although there are rules that govern how cargo should be loaded on a tractor trailer, these regulations are not always observed. Improperly loaded cargo can lead to spills of gasoline or other dangerous liquids on the roadways. Other common types of improperly loaded cargo include raw materials and household goods. Hazardous spills and other debris can lead to multi-car pile ups as other vehicles attempt to avoid the spilled materials left on the highway. Whether or not improperly loaded cargo was the cause of your injury is an issue Flo can investigate and determine on your behalf.
