Houston Truck Accident Attorneys

Fighting for Victims of Serious Truck Accidents

Semi-trucks can weigh as much as 80,000 pounds. When truck accidents occur on Houston roadways, the aftermath can be devastating for those involved. When truck drivers operate recklessly, make hasty decisions, or fail to follow trucking regulations, the driver as well as their employer are often to blame. If you were hurt in a truck crash, it’s important to hire an experienced truck accident attorney right away.

Not only can the lawyers at SJ Injury Attorneys support you through this time, but we have the proven resources and representation to advocate for our clients against large trucking corporations, who have their own experience and legal teams to fight against paying you fair compensation. Trucking companies and their insurers move quickly to protect themselves after a crash, often sending investigators to the scene within hours to gather evidence in their favor. You need a legal team that moves just as fast. You need to hold the at-fault parties accountable for your injuries and your pain and suffering, and our legal team can provide the help you need.

    What Causes Truck Accidents on Houston Roadways

    Truck drivers are held to high standards, often charged with a great deal of responsibility. Many of these truckers work for companies that expect their products to be delivered on an outrageously tight schedule. Drivers may be encouraged by their employers to test their limits by working over the mileage or hour limits set by federal law. Whether through fatigue, relying on controlled substances, or disregarding traffic rules while under time pressure, these truck drivers may perform dangerous maneuvers on the road without considering the repercussions to the passenger vehicles around them.

    Common causes of truck accidents include:

    • Driving while fatigued
    • Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol
    • Distracted driving
    • Speeding or reckless lane changing
    • Cargo falling from the truck
    • Improper lane switching
    • Failing to take safety precautions
    • Poor truck maintenance

    From intake to trial, every person on this team plays a part in getting you the outcome you deserve.

    Behind every case file is a full team working on your behalf: case managers, paralegals, and support staff who answer your calls, track down your records, and keep you in the loop every step of the way. We built this firm to feel less like a law office and more like a neighbor you can count on. That starts with hiring people who care, and it shows in how we treat every client who walks through our door.

      They are committed to going above and beyond.

      - Renee H.
      Very professional and quick results.
      “Thanks to attorney Skylar who handled my case. I love this firm.”
      - Past Client
      The firm knew exactly what they were doing and assured me every time they were doing the best they can for me!
      “I’ve never experienced or had an idea of how the process worked with accidents, especially 18 wheelers! Highly recommend Brenda to talk to. She was very professional and stayed on top of my case from the very beginning!”
      - Erica E.
      Professional and very thorough law firm.
      “The staff is courteous and understanding. Highly recommend them.”
      - Past Client
      I would recommend Chris Soileau any day.
      “I got rear-ended by a big SUV that did not have insurance and to my surprise, Leticia, the case manager, figured out I had personal injury insurance. She took care of me from start to finish. The doctors and chiropractors they recommended took away the injuries caused by the accident. I became a new man with a new strong lower back and I received a nice surprising settlement amount that I wasn’t expecting during the holidays.”
      - Larry R.
      Everyone involved with my case was very efficient and helpful in answering my questions.
      “There was no need to constantly call them to check up on my case. They would always update me with any new developments as they got it. I would certainly recommend this firm to anyone and I will definitely use them again.”
      - Monica V.
      I felt it wasn't about the money he was making but the concern for me and my son's loss.
      “I knew few attorneys a couple years back when I needed one to represent me in a case involving an accident with my wife. I was introduced to Mr. Soileau one evening while I was out playing golf. He sat down and took time out his golf game and listened to my predicament I was facing. Afterward, by the way, he handled everything so professionally I hired him and his firm to represent me, hoping we'd settle without it going to court. Needless to say we settled out of court within a year and I was well satisfied with the settlement. Thanks again to Chris Soileau. I'd recommend them to anyone needing a great down to earth attorney, who has a family and wants to know you personally.”
      - Paul R.
      Within a few months of taking my case he forced the insurance company to pay $50,000.
      “After getting several denials for a medical payments claim I made due to an automobile accident, I contacted Chris Soileau. Mr. Soileau reviewed my file and determined the insurance company acted in bad faith. I highly recommend using this firm if you are having trouble with your insurance company.”
      - M.M.
      We’re extremely pleased with the outcome.
      “Highly recommend! The firm was so accommodating and helpful throughout the entire process.”
