What to Expect from Your Laredo Truck Accident Attorney

The highways in and around Laredo, Texas are full of big trucks trying to cross the state with their cargo and unfortunately, accidents between these big trucks and the smaller cars that share the roads with them happen every day. There are few events more disruptive, scary, and confusing than accidents with 18-wheeler trucks. These often result in major injuries and property destruction, or worse, and the job of sorting through the chaos to find some peace and a way forward is best left to an experienced personal injury lawyer.

The Texas truck accident attorneys at Carabin Shaw have decades of experience helping Texans get the compensation they deserve and can be an invaluable resource for you in the wake of your Laredo 18-wheeler accident. When someone is seeking damages for a truck accident that resulted in major injuries, destruction, or death, there are many more factors to consider than those in more standard car accidents. That’s why you need one of our Laredo 18-wheeler accident lawyers—they will navigate your case quickly and with care, so you can focus on healing and getting your life back.

Safety should be your first and foremost concern in the wake of a commercial truck accident. You should call emergency services immediately and seek medical attention for your injuries. Then, it’s time to consider calling an attorney.

Many people hesitate to seek representation in personal injury cases because they’re concerned about legal fees piling on top of medical bills and other expenses that come with recovering from a major accident. At Carabin Shaw, we don’t get paid until we win for you, and we’re proud to offer free case reviews and initial consultations to help determine if we’re the right firm for your case.

It’s important to find a lawyer sooner than later because many critical pieces of evidence can be lost or destroyed in the days following your truck accident. After you secure representation from Carabin Shaw, our 18-wheeler injury attorneys in Laredo will begin to acquire and sort out the details of your case. First, they’ll obtain the truck driver’s records, log book, and their truck’s black box. These, along with the information obtained by a team sent to the scene of your accident, will help us determine if the driver broke any laws or was driving recklessly at the time they hit you.

Then, we’ll speak to your doctors about your current and future medical billing. We can help you receive maximum compensation for your injuries if we know more about how this accident has disrupted and may continue to disrupt your ability to live a normal life. Lost wages and a future inability to work are factored into the arguments we’ll make for you.

Other than our experience and determination, the most valuable service we can offer you is consistent, detailed communication with you from the opening to the closing of your case. We believe it’s important that you feel like an integral part of every step of the process and want to make sure that you are informed about each new development. You can read Carabin Shaw’s client reviews to see what other Texans have said about our casework and success rate.
