A crash with a big commercial truck is not like a regular car accident. These massive vehicles can weigh up to 80,000 pounds. When they hit a smaller car, the damage is often life-changing. If you or a loved one were hurt, you are likely dealing with huge medical bills and a lot of fear. You need a truck accident lawyer who understands how to stand up to big trucking companies and their insurance teams. At Williams Caputo Injury Lawyers, we help families in Texas, New Mexico, and Colorado get the justice they deserve.

Trucking companies have teams of lawyers and adjusters ready to go the moment an accident happens. Their goal is to protect their money, not to help you. A trucking accident lawyer knows how to fight back. We act fast to save evidence that the trucking company might try to hide or delete.
Trucking cases are complicated because they have to follow special federal rules. The Texas Office of Court Administration notes that following correct court procedures is vital for success in any case. We handle all the talking and the paperwork so you can focus on healing. Whether you were hurt by a semi-truck, a delivery van, or an oil field truck, we have the experience to guide you through the legal system.
One of the biggest differences in a truck crash is that many people or companies might be at fault. A truck accident attorney looks at every detail to find out who is responsible.
Sometimes the driver makes a mistake. They might be speeding, distracted by a phone, or driving while tired. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) has strict rules about how many hours a driver can be on the road. If a driver breaks these “hours of service” rules, they are putting everyone on the road in danger.
Trucking companies must keep their fleet in safe working order. If they skip inspections or don’t fix broken brakes, they are breaking the law. We use data from the National Safety Council and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety to show how mechanical failures lead to deadly crashes. If a company hired a dangerous driver or didn’t train them right, they should be held responsible for the harm caused.
If a truck’s cargo isn’t loaded correctly, it can shift and cause the truck to flip over. If a part on the truck—like a tire or a steering system—was made poorly, the manufacturer might be to blame. The Consumer Product Safety Commission tracks dangerous products, and we look for any defects that could have caused your crash.
We Have a Reputation For Great Results
In places like Midland and Odessa, truck traffic is very heavy because of the oil fields. This means more chances for serious accidents. A midland truck accident lawyer from our team knows how to investigate these specific types of crashes. We don’t just look at the police report from Texas Law Enforcement. We dig deeper.
We look for the truck’s “black box.” This is a small computer that records things like how fast the truck was going and when the driver hit the brakes. We also look at the driver’s logs and the company’s maintenance records. The Texas Department of Transportation and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics help us understand local road safety and how common these crashes are. By gathering all this evidence, we can build a strong case for the compensation you need.

We work on a “contingency fee”. This means you do not pay us anything unless we win money for you. We take a percentage of the final settlement or verdict, so you don’t have to worry about upfront costs.
Every case is different. We look at your medical bills, lost wages, and the impact on your life. We use information from the American Medical Association to explain the long-term costs of serious injuries. Our goal is to get you enough money to cover your care for the rest of your life.
Truck cases often take longer than car accident cases because they are more complex. There is more evidence to gather and more companies involved. We work as fast as we can while still making sure we get every detail right. You can find more information about the legal process on our blog.
First, get medical help. Your health is the number one priority. If you are able, take photos of the scene and get the names of any witnesses. Do not sign anything from the trucking company’s insurance until you have talked to a lawyer. You can visit our contact us page or call us at tel:512.872.5510 to get started.
