Austin Truck Accident Lawyers

Travis County Trucking Injury Attorneys

People involved in collisions with 18-wheelers and other huge commercial trucks often suffer major, life-changing injuries. The sheer size and force of a big rig almost always make a truck accident serious, and the issues in these cases can be extremely complex. Such accidents are unfortunately common in Central Texas, on Interstate 35 and other roadways in Travis County, Williamson County, Bastrop County, Hays County and elsewhere.

The trucking company and its insurer often get involved right away in an effort to avoid liability and minimize your claim. Accident victims or family members may feel pressure to make major decisions, including accepting a fast, inadequate settlement. It is critical to have solid legal representation to protect your rights, and our professional team in Austin, Texas, is here to help in every way we can.

Turn to a Law Firm With Trial Experience and Outstanding Expert Resources

Not all metro Austin truck accident attorneys have the high-level trial experience your case may require. Others may lack connections to top-quality accident reconstruction experts and others whose knowledge may prove essential in your case, which we know may involve catastrophic injuries such as:

  • Traumatic brain injury (TBI) or other severe head injuries
  • Paralysis or other severe, permanent consequences of spinal cord injuries
  • Broken bones, neck and back injuries, and other harm that may be temporarily or permanently disabling

Attorney Paul Colley Jr. has handled numerous truck accident cases over the course of a career focused on personal injury litigation since 1981. His experience extends to wrongful death claims and successful lawsuits against trucking companies and other powerful corporations, yielding many sizable recoveries for our clients.
