What Sets the Lawyers at The Valentine Law Firm Apart from Other Truck Accident Attorneys in Texas?
Truck accident claims can be incredibly complex for a variety of reasons. After most collisions involving regular vehicles, a negligent driver is usually liable for the damages. But in truck accident claims, it is often the case that a party other than the truck driver can be held liable.

Depending on the facts surrounding your collision, you may have grounds for a claim against:

The truck driver;
The company that employs the truck driver;
The owner of the truck;
A mechanic who worked on the truck;
The company that manufactured the truck or its parts;
The company that loaded the truck; or
Officials at a weigh station.
To give your claim the best chance of success, the Texas truck accident attorneys at The Valentine Law Firm will perform a thorough investigation into your collision to identify all potentially liable parties.

We will gather all available evidence to prove negligence and liability, which may include:

Weigh station receipts;
Receipts for gas and food;
Toll booth receipts;
The truck driver’s cell phone records;
Bills of lading;
Black box data;
Dashcam footage;
Surveillance footage;
Expert witness testimony;
Eyewitness testimony;
The accident report; and
Photos and videos of the crash scene.
Expert witness testimony often plays a critical role in truck accident cases. The attorneys at The Valentine Law Firm can arrange testimony from accident reconstruction experts, engineers, medical experts, and financial experts.

Insurance companies throughout Texas know that our attorneys provide comprehensive and aggressive legal representation. We are not afraid to take your case to trial, and our willingness to go the extra mile for each of our clients often results in fair settlements offer early in the proceedings.

Do I Have Grounds for a Truck Accident Claim?
If you intend to bring a claim against the truck driver or another party that contributed to your accident, you will need evidence to prove that the defendant breached a duty of care owed to you, and this breach of duty resulted in your injury or loss. Breaching a duty of care is also called “negligence.”
