Trucking Insurance Defense Lawyer in Richardson Texas

We are accustomed to vigorously defending our clients against claims for accidents while working within the budgetary and billing guidelines of auto and trucking insurance carriers. While most claims involve insurance coverage, we also represent motor carriers and self-insured parties.

At The Keramidas Law Firm, a large portion of our practice is dedicated to automobile insurance defense.  Our attorneys handle everything from uninsured and underinsured motorists to complex liability and damages claims.  The firm regularly takes on cases involving first and third party automobile liability, joint and several liability, personal automobile policies, interpleaders, personal injury defense and more. We defend clients against claims arising from all types of injuries, including minor soft tissue damage and catastrophic injuries.

As a result of our experience, we have developed a niche for defense against personal injuries resulting from automobile accidents. We have an extensive network of medical professionals, accident reconstructionists and other experts that assist us in making a case. While the attorneys of The Keramidas Law Firm are prepared to aggressively litigate cases, we also recognize the benefits of alternative dispute resolution and use this process to help meet our clients’ objectives.

Keramidas Law Firm has over 15 years of experience representing trucking accident victims. Our attorneys are aggressive in litigation and understand the traumatic nature of the personal injuries involved. Personal injuries caused by truck accidents are similar to those caused by motorcycle accidents and motor vehicle accidents. These injuries include crushed bones and other orthopedic injuries, traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, loss of limbs, burn injuries and even death.

Our accident attorneys passionately represent truck accident victims with one goal in mind: to fight tenaciously in and out of the courtroom to get you the compensation you deserve. Keramidas Law Firm has helped hundreds of accident victims in attaining just compensation for pain and suffering, lost economic opportunities and wages, medical expenses both past and ongoing, and other accident related expenses.

Truck crash cases that involve large trucks, commonly referred to as “semi-trucks”, “big rigs” or “18-wheelers”, are generally more complex than other personal injury cases because of:

• The severe nature of the injuries caused by truck accidents, such as traumatic brain injuries, burn injuries and spinal cord injuries.
• The multitude of causes such as bad weather, excessive speed, reckless driving, adverse road conditions and defective products, such as defective tires or brakes, leading to products liability and wrongful death claims.
• The complex federal and state laws and regulations that govern truck drivers and the commercial trucking industry.
• The possibility of numerous responsible parties.
• The many different types of accidents, such as jackknifing and under-ride accidents.
  • “Jackknifing” is a term used in a truck accident when the trailer attached to the truck swings out and comes to rest at a 90-degree angle from the truck.
  • “Under-ride” accidents” occur when the trailer of a large truck that is usually higher above the ground than the front bumpers of most small vehicles causes the smaller vehicles to become stuck underneath the trailer.

Often, it is very difficult to piece together the events leading up to, during and after a truck accident. The victims may not be able to remember, and witnesses usually say that it all happened too fast to be sure of the sequence of events. Furthermore, trucking companies and their insurance carriers are looking out for their best interests and have teams of attorneys with one purpose in mind: making sure you get the least amount of compensation for your injuries.
