Determining Who is at Fault
Establishing liability is one of the most critical steps in any truck accident case. Our legal team meticulously investigates each incident to uncover all potential responsible parties. In trucking accidents, multiple entities can be liable, including:
- The commercial truck driver
- The trucking company
- Third-party contractors
- Vehicle or tire manufacturers
- Cargo loading companies
- Other negligent drivers or pedestrians
Through a detailed analysis of driver logs, maintenance records, black box data, and accident reports, Hodges Law Group builds a strong foundation to support your personal injury claim.
Establishing Negligence in a Truck Accident
To prevail in a truck accident case, it’s essential to prove negligence. At Hodges Law Group, we focus on demonstrating all four legal elements necessary to establish fault:
- Duty of Care – The responsible party owed you a legal obligation to drive or operate safely.
- Breach of Duty – That duty was violated through reckless, careless, or unlawful behavior.
- Causation – The breach of duty directly caused or contributed to your accident.
- Damages – You sustained losses, including physical injuries, property damage, or financial hardships, as a result.
Our firm excels at compiling compelling evidence—such as eyewitness testimony, expert analysis, and digital forensics—to strengthen your case.
Seeking the Compensation You Deserve
Truck accidents often result in life-altering consequences. If you’ve been injured due to someone else’s negligence, you have the legal right to pursue compensation. At Hodges Law Group, we calculate both economic and non-economic damages, which may include:
- Medical bills (current and future)
- Lost wages and diminished earning capacity
- Property repair or replacement
- Pain and suffering
- Physical impairment or disfigurement
- Mental anguish
Trucking companies and insurers often attempt to minimize your claim or deny responsibility altogether. Our firm knows how to push back with facts, law, and strategy. If a fair settlement cannot be reached, we are fully prepared to take your case to trial and advocate fiercely before a judge or jury.
