Semi-trucks are a vital part of the American economy. But, too often, they can also be the cause of major traffic hazards, resulting in serious injury for other drivers.
It’s why we are passionate about providing knowledgeable and reliable legal care for Austin-based residents who have been injured in a truck accident. With millions of dollars collected in damages for our clients, and a deep understanding of Texas’ legal system, we’re here to help you receive the care and protection you deserve.
Most clients seek legal aid because they are attempting to recover damages that will help them with the large costs of healing after an accident. So, it’s only natural that clients come to us, wondering just how much they can expect to win in their case.
The answer, unfortunately, is complex. A number of factors are taken into consideration when determining damages including:
As you continue through the legal process with us, our team will continue to collect evidence and help you understand how much you can expect to collect.
Pursuing legal action after a truck accident isn’t just “the next right thing to do.” It can massively affect the course of your healing, your job security, and continued support as you try to move forward.
Pursuing legal action can help you:
When our clients come to us, their #1 concern is cost. We understand. Legal help is expensive, and some firms take a predatory approach, charging clients hundreds of dollars an hour when they are already at their lowest.
Our team at Armstrong, Lee & Baker takes a different approach. We believe that you deserve quality legal care, regardless of how much you have in your bank account. It’s why we offer a risk-free payment system, where you don’t pay us a dime until we win your case.

The success of your truck accident case hinges on being able to determine fault. What is fault?
In a legal sense, fault can be defined in one of three ways:
Typically, in a personal injury case, we’re working with negligence.
A large part of the evidence-gathering process is done in order to establish negligence on behalf of the defendant. We’ll search for signs that the driver of the other vehicle caused the accident, by ignoring traffic rules or driving recklessly.
It’s why those photos and videos that you took at the crash site are indispensable – they help establish negligence in court.
Injuries aren’t cut and dry. Sometimes they are severe, and sometimes our clients are able to walk away from the scene, seemingly unscathed.
But here’s the sneaky truth: not all injuries are immediately visible. Side effects and injuries from your truck accident can make themselves known days to months after the accident themselves. The most common injuries we see include:
If you’ve recently been in a truck injury, we recommend seeking medical care as soon as possible.
We’ll fight for the compensation you deserve.
One of the ways truck accidents differ from typical car accidents is that there are a number of different parties that might be responsible for the crash.
Sometimes, more than one party might be responsible. For instance, bigger trucking companies sometimes forgo complying with Federal Motor Carrier Association rules to save money, cargo loaders sometimes fail to inspect or secure cargo properly, and drivers unwittingly drive trucks with defective parts that fail during transit.
When it comes to truck accidents, any of the following parties might be liable for your injuries:
Because trucking commerce involves many parties, it takes a skilled Austin truck accident attorney to pinpoint who can be held liable for your injury. An Austin trucking accident lawyer will thoroughly investigate your accident so that they can identify all of the potentially liable parties.
Given the number of potential causes for a truck accident and the number of potentially liable parties, truck accident investigations can be complicated and time-consuming. However, there are things you can do to help your attorney collect vital evidence, including the following:
At Armstrong Lee & Baker, our truck accident attorneys also work closely with experts, engineers, medical professionals, and forensics specialists to establish liability, ensuring we build a robust case before asking for a fair recovery amount.

Many times, when people are injured in a truck accident, they aren’t the ones behind the wheel. Passengers are at equal risk for injury, but aren’t always aware that they, too, can seek damages!

Google Review I cannot recommend Kelly Viktorin at Armstrong Lee & Baker highly enough. After being injured at work, I was incredibly discouraged as many attorneys wouldn’t take my case due to the complexities involved. From our very first consultation, Kelly and her team jumped right in, demonstrating a level of dedication and expertise that immediately put me at ease. Throughout the entire process, their communication was outstanding. I was consistently kept informed of any updates and felt like a priority. Kelly truly went above and beyond to fight for me, and I am so grateful for her hard work and commitment. If you’re facing a challenging work injury case, especially with a Texas non-subscriber, don’t hesitate to reach out to Kelly Viktorin. You’ll be in excellent hands.
Google Review When I got injured my company didn’t have workers comp. They had something called non subscriber insurance.
I tried a dozen or more lawyers and no one would take my case.
I lost my house in Texas so right as I was moving back to where I was from, Florida, o call Armstrong and Lee. They said they could take my case. Shortly after I meet Adam Grable.
Adam took the case and unraveled it like a champ. It was a difficult case and that’s why other lawyers didn’t take.
Over the next year, Adam because a friend and a member of the family.
I found him brilliant and personable and when needed he found for me.
In the end, we took a settlement even though Adam told me he had a good shot at trial. He understood i wanted this behind me!
If you ever find yourself needed a lawyer trust me Adam Grable will be on your side!
