Investigating Trucking Companies

How we determine liability in a truck accident

In truck accidents, the driver may be negligent, but the liability may extend to other entities, including the driver's employer. A thorough investigation of the trucking company may be necessary to find out the root cause of the semi truck wreck.

Trucking accidents may involve multiple liable parties, which means several different insurance company representatives may contact you. If you are seriously injured in a truck accident in Fort Worth or elsewhere in Texas, do you know what your next step should be? Some people make the mistake of trying to deal with the insurance companies on their own. Don't try to go it alone.

The government regulates trucking firms, requiring the companies to maintain records. In a serious truck accident, we may need to access those records to find out if the company committed any violations.

Records a truck accident lawyer in Texas might examine

The following records may prove crucial in a trucking company investigation:

• Driver history of accidents or moving violations
• Driver logs
• Fleet maintenance records
• Hiring/training/supervising practices of the company
