McAllen Truck Accident Attorney

Business 83 – Thousands of drivers travel down U.S. 83 daily as this road runs through the downtown area of McAllen. Accidents can occur at any point along this road, with many taking place close to 10th Street.

Interstate 2 – People frequently use I-2 to travel through south Texas and near the U.S.-Mexico border. Subsequently, many drivers use exit and access ramps along the interstate, leading to accidents involving trucks.

Bicentennial Boulevard – This street runs north and south through McAllen, with many intersections and parking access points. One of the most dangerous intersections on this boulevard is on the north end, at Nolana Avenue.

Ware Road – The southern stretch of this busy road is particularly dangerous. This road gives vehicles access to many local neighborhoods with slower traffic.

Back and Neck Injuries – The force of truck accidents can cause the head and neck to move suddenly and unnaturally, causing many sensitive bones, ligaments, muscles, tendons, and other soft tissues in the back and neck to tear and break. Whiplash and more severe injuries may result in these instances.

Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBIs) – Truck accidents may also cause damage to the brain. In severe cases, accidents may cause TBIs that include concussions, bleeding, bruising, and skull fractures, among other more extensive damage. If the injury is serious enough, it could result in long-term physical and psychological disability or psychological changes.

Spinal Cord Injuries – Temporary or permanent partial or total paralysis could result from damage to the spinal cord sustained in a truck accident.

Burns – Tanker trucks and other trucks often contain large fuel tanks that can easily rupture in an accident, causing fires or explosions. These hazards may lead to burns that permanently disfigure or kill victims.

We work with clients to navigate the entire claims process from filing to settlement: We understand that the truck accident claims process goes well beyond completing paperwork. Victims also must collect and provide ample evidence and documentation to support their claim, including medical records, police reports, and physical evidence from the accident scene. We can help achieve all of this for our clients.

We can mitigate the risk of financial loss: Certain issues can develop during the claims process that may compromise accident victims financially. For example, victims may fail to file a claim before the statute of limitations has passed, or they may name the wrong liable party. Our team of experienced attorneys will help prevent these and other issues from hurting our clients.

We negotiate with insurers: Insurance companies typically try to reach the lowest possible settlement to avoid paying out large amounts of money, even when accident victims deserve it. We’ll help prevent this by negotiating with insurers to recover the money you deserve.

We can take the case to trial: Accident cases usually close during the claims process and do not reach court. However, if insurers deny a claim or the parties involved can’t agree on fault or a compensation amount, we can take the case to court to represent our clients during the litigation process.
