Trucking Accidents

Truck Accident Attorney

Wrecks caused by negligent truck drivers often involve serious injuries or death. Even at low speeds, because of their size and weight, trucks can cause catastrophic injuries. At the Williams Law Firm, we are committed to helping people who have been seriously injured in wrecks involving semi trucks.

We consider your present and future needs to ensure you get just compensation for your losses.

Truck accident lawsuits are often extremely complex because they involve the competing interests of the truck driver, the driver’s employer, the actual owners of the truck and trailer and, finally, the insurance companies for those parties. Trucking companies are well-funded and can afford to hire the very best defense lawyers. If you have been seriously injured in a wreck caused by a semi tractor trailer, it is important that you seek advice from attorneys experienced in truck wreck cases. We believe it is important that any law firm representing seriously injured people in truck accident cases have an experienced, in-house investigator in the office. That is why we have an experienced, in-house investigator on staff and available to investigate all our cases.

Our attorneys are experienced in fighting local and national trucking companies. We know how important it is to have a complete and accurate investigation – – and the ability to get it done on time. It is vitally important to timely secure evidence, take statements from witnesses, and meet with investigating officers to uncover the cause of your accident whether it is driver error, mechanical failure, or company indifference to safety.

Contact the Williams Law Firm for more information about our legal services. We can assist you with trucking accident claims related to any of the following:

  • Improper loading
  • Mechanical failure
  • Violations of law or regulation
  • Construction site accidents
  • Jackknife
  • Brake failure
  • Improper loading
  • Industry negligence
  • Improper training
  • Black box

At the Williams Law Firm, we are experienced in handling complex cases. Our attorneys and staff are committed to helping people who have been seriously injured in truck accidents.

In a trucking accident case, it is critical to retain evidence as soon as possible. Otherwise, you may lose the opportunity to speak with witnesses, take photographs or videos, and obtain company records including any recorded data concerning the operation and movement of the truck. Immediately locating witnesses, collecting evidence and obtaining company and driver records can make an important difference in your case.

Our firm has experience in complex truck accident cases that need immediate attention to detail. Our full-time investigator will aggressively pursue the evidence needed to make a jury understand your case. Throughout your case you can trust that our team of attorneys, investigators, and staff will work hard to protect your interests, and your family’s interest – – not the insurance company’s interests.

    Steve Williams is an excellent mediator. In fact, he is the best I have ever used. Steve understands complex legal issues and how to dissect them in a manner that is effective in persuading both parties of all the benefits of reaching a settlement. Steve works tirelessly in every case he mediates in reaching a settlement. He has had great rapport with all my clients, which enhances greatly the chances of reaching a settlement. I would conclude by stating if you don't have Steve mediating your case then you most likely left money on the table which your client could have benefited from. - Terry M.

    Steve Williams has been a first-rate trial lawyer for many years. In the several cases on which we worked together (always on opposite sides), he was prepared, hardworking, principled, and effective. Now that Steve is working primarily as a mediator, I have been happy to use him twice and certainly will be glad to use him again. Steve connects with all kinds of people, takes a genuine interest in cases and works hard to get matters resolved. Steve also brings to the negotiating table genuine warmth and empathy for each side. That, coupled with his excellent skills as a lawyer, makes him particularly good at getting cases settled. - Dan T.

    Steve Williams represented me exceedingly well in my personal injury claim against a large and distant insurance company . His quick action preserved evidence that was imperative to my claim and otherwise would have been lost or overlooked . His negotiation with the company and its representative was business-like and firm while at the same time keeping "the door open " to reach a satisfactory settlement . I am grateful for the professional manner in which Steve Williams represented me and my claim . He has my highest recommendation regarding his professional ability and strength of character. - J. Newton

    After contacting Mr. Williams about handling my case, he was very diligent about gathering all the facts and information surrounding the accident. Mr. Williams was also steadfast during the negotiation process with the insurance companies involved. The administrative staff in his office was great to work with and very helpful with any and all questions I had throughout the process. Mr. Williams understood the severity of my injuries and made sure the final settlement was agreeable to me, especially to ensure I would be secure financially if any more procedures and/or surgeries would be required in the unforeseeable future. I am quite confident in saying he had my best interests at heart. - G. Toney

    Steve Williams is an excellent attorney. From my dealings with him that he is honest, responsible, and above all he works extremely hard for his clients. I don’t think any practicing attorney would have gotten the settlement he provided for me. If need be, and I needed a competent legal representation, I would not be hesitant to call Steve Williams to provide me with unequal legal guidance from Mr. Williams. - N. Corey
