18 Wheeler Injury Attorney in Houston

Accidents involving 18-wheelers can have devastating consequences, often resulting in severe injuries, extensive property damage, and even loss of life. Due to their size and weight, these trucks pose unique dangers on the road, and the legal cases surrounding them can be exceptionally complex. At Daws & Associates, PLLC, we specialize in handling 18-wheeler injury cases, ensuring that victims receive the justice and compensation they deserve.

Why 18 Wheeler Accidents Are Different

Severity of Injuries

The sheer size and weight of 18-wheelers mean that accidents often lead to catastrophic injuries such as:

These injuries often require long-term medical care and rehabilitation, leading to significant financial burdens.

Complex Liability Issues

Unlike typical car accidents, determining liability in an 18-wheeler accident can involve multiple parties, including:

Each of these entities may share responsibility, making it essential to have a skilled attorney who can navigate the complexities of your case.

Federal and State Regulations

Trucking companies and drivers are subject to strict federal and state regulations. Violations of these regulations, such as exceeding driving time limits or failing to maintain the vehicle, can play a critical role in proving negligence.

How Daws & Associates Can Help

Our team conducts a thorough investigation to determine the cause of the accident. Common causes include:

Driver fatigue or distraction
Speeding or reckless driving
Overloaded or improperly secured cargo
Mechanical failures due to poor maintenance
Drunk or drugged driving

We gather crucial evidence such as:

Driver logs
Black box data
Maintenance records
Witness statements
Accident scene photographs

At Daws & Associates, PLLC, we understand how to build a compelling case by:

Identifying all liable parties
Calculating the full extent of your damages, including medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and future care needs
Consulting with medical and accident reconstruction experts to strengthen your claim

Aggressive Representation

We negotiate fiercely with insurance companies to secure a fair settlement. If they refuse to offer adequate compensation, we are fully prepared to take your case to court.

Compensation for 18 Wheeler Injury Victims

Victims of 18-wheeler accidents may be entitled to compensation for:

Medical bills (past, present, and future)

Lost income and diminished earning capacity

Pain and suffering

Emotional distress

Property damage

Wrongful death (for families who have lost a loved one)

Common Challenges in 18 Wheeler Cases

Dealing with Powerful Insurance Companies

Trucking companies often have large insurance policies and aggressive legal teams working to minimize payouts. Our attorneys have the experience and tenacity to level the playing field and fight for your best interests.

Timely Action is Crucial

Top-notch service from Mr. Joshua Daws! He was able to address and resolve my concerns that another firm was unable to do so (Salazar Law Firm). I was referred to Mr. Daws’s firm and I am grateful I crossed paths with him. Highly recommend working with Mr. Daws, you will not regret it! He was able to notify me of the offer that the at-fault party had sent, in which I was previously told there had been nothing. Mr. Daws is the real deal and will take any case big or small seriously. A very personable person and is always present to help and serve you! 👍
