Commercial Trucking Accidents

San Antonio Commercial Trucking Accident Attorney

An 18-wheeler crash presents grave danger and sometimes even death. The steps taken in establishing the case are complicated, as are the laws and regulations governing commercial trucking accidents. At the law firm of MICHAEL R. DE LA PAZ, A Professional Corporation in San Antonio, Texas, I have the experience to help my clients and hold truck drivers and trucking companies accountable.

Immediate Representation of Your Commercial Trucking Accident Case

Time is of the essence in contacting the MICHAEL R. DE LA PAZ, A Professional Corporation following your commercial trucking accident. Trucking companies are prepared for the worst if an accident occurs. They dispatch investigators to the scene and mechanics at body shops are standing by to perform immediate repairs to the truck. Valuable evidence could be lost in an instant.

Investigating Your Commercial Trucking Accident Claim

My investigation begins with securing records, the company’s and the individual driver’s logbooks. Federal and state regulations restrict a driver’s time spent on the road, and the weight of the load carried and mandate the number of breaks taken. Logbooks may show that, or they may hide that. My job is to ensure those records are preserved and any evidence is not destroyed.

Teaming with Professionals on Your Commercial Trucking Accident Case

I may team with engineering professionals, accident re-constructionists, and analysts who review the data from the truck’s black box in regards to rate of speed and braking. If available, that information can be invaluable in establishing your case.
