Martinez Truck Accidents

Often, truck crashes are the result of trucking company or truck driver negligence. This could include improperly loading or securing freight or failing to follow safety protocols. Depending on the facts of your case, you may be entitled to punitive damages in addition to compensatory damages for your injuries and losses.

One of the most common types of truck accidents is a jackknife crash. This occurs when the trailer swings out at a 90-degree angle from the cab, resembling a folding pocket knife. This can block several lanes and create a dangerous situation for passing drivers. The Martinez Law Firm regularly represents victims of jackknife accidents on Texas highways and other roadways.

The Martinez Law Firm also handles cases involving collisions with semi-trucks and other commercial vehicles. These accidents are very dangerous due to the size and speed of these large trucks. They often involve serious injuries and property damage. Our attorneys are familiar with the federal and state regulations governing commercial vehicle operations and have extensive experience dealing with trucking companies and their insurance carriers. They will vigorously pursue your claim and make sure you receive the maximum compensation possible for your injuries.
