Getting Compensation in Semi Truck Accident Cases
Victims of 18 wheeler accidents are frequently left to suffer from a life-changing personal injury or even death. All of this damage simply because a truck driver or commercial trucking company acted negligently.
You have the right to see that those responsible for the accident are held accountable.
At The Law Office of W.T. Johnson, we have more than 30 years of experience doing just that. We are committed to getting fair compensation for 18 wheeler accident victims throughout the Dallas-Fort Worth area in personal injury and wrongful death cases.
We Handle All Types of Semi Truck Accidents
When you choose our law firm, you will have a lawyer who can take on 18 wheeler accidents of any type, including:
- Rollover
- Jackknife
- Load Shift
- Tire Blowout
- Speeding
- Excessively Wide Turns
- Drunk Driving

- Inadequate Lighting and Reflectors
We understand all of the factors that can come into play in these cases. We know that it may be negligence on the part of the driver. However, we also know that it could be the result of carelessness by the trucking company or other parties involved. The key is that we know how to find out who holds responsibility for the accident.
We Know the Rules of the Trucking Industry
In order to ensure the safety of our nation's highways and roads, trucking companies are highly regulated by state and federal law. Areas of regulation include how many hours a driver can be on the road, mandatory drug testing, licensing, vehicle maintenance, weight of cargo and more.
Truck accidents often are caused by truck drivers and trucking companies cutting corners to decrease operating costs and meet tight deadlines. Fortunately, the rules of the industry mean that when 18 wheeler accidents happen, there is often a paper trail. We know how to follow that trail to gather the facts needed to build a strong case.
The Opposition Has a Lot at Stake. They're Ready to Fight.
The insurance companies that represent truck drivers and trucking companies not only want to fight to avoid paying out money, they want to fight to protect the reputation of their client's business.
These companies rarely are willing to immediately offer a fair settlement. That's why we take the time to build a solid case based on the facts. We will show them our case and they will see that we mean business.
If they fail to provide the settlement we are asking for, we will be ready to take the matter to court. Our case will be designed specifically to hold up in front of a judge and jury, to convince them to do what is right for you.
