About This Firm
Traffic accidents involving trucks, semi-trucks, and 18-wheelers are the deadliest of all roadway collisions. Unfortunately for the occupants of passenger cars, their risk of injury or death as opposed to the truck driver’s is significantly higher. That is because of the enormous size and weight of large commercial trucks; some weigh over 80,000 pounds and extend 72 feet long. Their overwhelming bulk can easily crush smaller vehicles in traffic crashes, leaving motorists and their passengers seriously or catastrophically injured or killed. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), 71 percent of the 2020 large truck accident fatalities were the occupants of smaller vehicles. If you or a loved one has been injured in a truck or semi-truck traffic accident in or around Lubbock, it is critical that you turn to a competent personal injury lawyer. These accident claims are much more complex than standard motor vehicle claims for many reasons. At The Gorilla Law Firm, we are here to ensure that your legal rights and best interests are aggressively pursued when going up against the well-funded resources of large trucking companies and their insurers. We will work thoroughly and tenaciously to help you seek the justice you deserve in these claims and lawsuits. Truck accident claims are more complex because many entities may be at fault or have contributed to your injuries, from the driver to the trucking company, cargo company, or truck manufacturer. Additionally, the trucking industry must comply with state and federal trucking regulations. This aspect of the truck accident must be investigated to see if these regulations were violated. Furthermore, trucking companies often have their own accident response teams that are sent out to the site of a truck accident as well as their own legal teams whose sole job is to protect the financial interests of the trucking company. These employees are likely working against you to limit or deny the trucking company’s liability. You will need a knowledgeable and skilled attorney who knows how to counteract any moves they make to minimize or refute what you are truly owed in your claim or lawsuit.
